Every month we feature a kitty or two who are looking for their forever home. Today we have an adoptable buddy in need of a loving home from VOKRA!

VOKRA does not have a shelter; they provide over 100 individual foster homes which helps to protect the very young from colds, distemper, parasites and other transmissible illnesses. In a home environment, cats are safe and well socialized, with lots of love and attention.

VOKRA also has an extensive TNR program, which means they trap, spay/neuter, and work with community cats to control the homeless cat population.

Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association (VOKRA) is a no-kill, non-profit, registered charity dedicated to the rescue of cats in the Lower Mainland that is run entirely by volunteers with no paid staff.

CURIO

Little 2-year-old Curio's entire world expanded when he was rescued by VOKRA. For most of his life this affectionate tabby was confined to a rusted cage that was 37 cm x 61 cm wide (14.5 x 24 inches,) barely enough room for his long neglected litterbox and a filthy food dish. His tight collar and small cage had begun to rub the fur from his neck and legs, and he had become depressed and unable to even groom himself.

It's been just three months, and Curio is certainly making up for lost snuggle time! He is fully adjusted to to good life and he now wanders confidently around his foster home getting as many cuddles and as much playtime as he can. He has very minor asthma from his previous confines, but that doesn't stop him from purring loudly. He doesn't even mind the occasional bath.

Curio is not a fan of sudden movements, so he would do best in a very affectionate home with no dogs or small children.
