Born: April 1, 2025 approx

Gender/Breed: Female DSH ginger tabby

Energy: low/medium

Likes: Relaxing with her peeps, playing with other like-minded felines when the zoomies hit. 

Good with: Cats, kids. Tolerates big dogs. Untested with smalls.

Health: Exc. Complete health exam, vaccinations, deworm and spay.

Penny came to VPN very pregnant and showing the signs of her life as a stray. She gave birth shortly after arriving in her foster home. 

Her foster mom says, "Penny is still a little shy around new people but she warms up pretty quick. She would love a friendly feline friend! She tolerates our big dog but is not a huge fan. She loves all people, young and old."

Penny is fostered in Virden. Let us know if you'd like to meet her or chat with her foster family. 

Jaguar (just call me Jag!)

Born: Sept. 2025

Silver tipped tabby DSH

Neutered male, young adult

Health: Excellent. Neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, complete vet check. 

Good with kids, dogs and other cats.

Big brother to the Lyons Street Lions (posted on kitten page). 

Foster mom says:

"He’s the first one I got purrs from. Just a gentle, big brother! He’s very calm, keeps to himself, and is well mannered. He does love to climb things, but not as playful with toys.

"He’s great with kids, has met our dog and did well, wasn’t overly curious. The kittens he’s great with, is a very protective big bro! Definitely more independent but loves his attention and pets. A good kitty!"

Still a kitten but with the added benefits of being older and wiser! Apply to adopt Jag here.

(Adoption fee only $75 as he's an older kitten)

Jasper: Russian Blue love bomb!

Born: 2022

Gender: Neutered male

Breed: Solid grey DSH

Health: excellent.

Ideal home: Good with cats and dogs, untested with kids. His ideal companion is someone who is maybe lonely and wants a truly attentive and caring best friend!

Foster mom writes: Jasper is a very distinguished gentleman.  Those expressive eyes!  Those soft grey toe beans.  And his luxurious grey coat is incredibly thick and soft.  His snuggles are like living  teddy bear cuddles.   And if you have a soft spot for those giant, pinchable, tomcat cheeks,  look no further!

Jasper is very, very affectionate... head boops and high-pressure body and face rubs ahead ... he loves to love and be loved.  Be prepared for serious purring at each and every love-fest.  

And talk!?!? He'll tell you stories ALL day long!  Jasper gets especially vocal when he is not near his people.  If he's alone, he's not happy.

Jasper is a very confident boy.  He has no fear of the three large dogs in his foster home.  He gets along and even sleeps with the senior one but picks on other two.  With proper introduction and appropriate canine respect Jasper would like a dog pal. 

As for cats, he obviously gets along with his baby momma (yes, Jasper was a family man before he lost his giggle berries LOL).  He tolerates his kittens' shenanigans with gentle correction when necessary. Dad of the year!

Do you have what it takes to give this strong, charismatic luv bug a place in your heart and home? Talk to us about Jasper.

Li'l Max, adopted

Born: Oct. 2024

Breed: DMH Light Ginger Tabby

Gender: neutered male

Health: VG, dewormed, vaccinated, FIV+, rescue will pay for dental treatment

Energy level: Low. Loves lap napping and catio sitting!

Ideal home: fantastic with other cats, chill with dogs, untested with children but likely fine. Does not like being picked up and carried but loves cuddles and endless petting.

Lil Max came into rescue from the Virden pound. He had been seen wandering alone near the Boston Pizza and other locations near the highway. Little did we know he was so much more than a pretty face!

Lil Max is a dream cat. He adores people and quickly won over the other pets in his foster home, too. His fur is soft as bunny hair and so is his voice... instead of a meow it comes out like a whispered "heh heh". 

Since his gums are in poor shape, he's booked for a dental which can be done before or after his adoption at no cost to the adopter.
