Mississauga Humane Society is dedicated to doing what’s best for the animals in our care, and sometimes that means not offering them for adoption. Our long-term foster cats and dogs have special needs and your donations can help us meet them.

Animals in Our Care
Get to know the animals your support helps every day
We're thrilled to introduce you to the incredible animals in our care. The descriptions provided below only scratch the surface of their unique personalities, stories, and needs. Together, we can make a difference in their lives.
Oreo
Oreo is a saucy girl with a bit of unpredictability, but that’s part of her charm. Having been declawed for unknown reasons, she’s had a tough past, but her foster family loves her dearly, and she’s truly flourishing in their care. Oreo’s unique personality makes her a special companion.
Charles
Charles is a FIV+ male who has truly blossomed in foster care. He gets along well with the other cats in the home and has made great strides. While he’s come a long way, Charles still holds onto some of his past experiences and can be a little jumpy if startled or if someone moves too quickly. With patience, he’s learning to trust more every day.
George
George is a sweet, shy boy who’s needed a lot of time, love, and patience to feel comfortable in his foster home. He’s made great progress and now walks around his foster mom’s home, though he’s still a bit wary of human touch. With continued care, George is slowly learning to trust more every day.
Wynter
Wynter and her kitten were trapped during the winter of 2022, after living in an industrial yard. While her kitten has since found his forever home, Wynter is now in foster care. She’s a sweet but shy girl, still unsure of people. With time, love, and patience, Wynter is sure to flourish in a loving home.
Baby, Kitty, Tammy, Ricky, & Barney
Baby, Kitty, Tammy, Ricky, and Barney were surrendered to MHS after their elderly owner was hospitalized and his family, living out of town, couldn’t care for them. Despite reaching out to many other rescues and the city shelter, no one was willing to take in this family of elderly cats. Ricky is 19 years old, while the rest of the family ranges from 13 to 15 years old. Finally, MHS connected with the family, and we were able to bring them into care. After receiving extensive medical treatment, they are now in loving foster homes where they are well cared for. We are incredibly lucky to have such amazing foster families who are giving them the comfort and attention they deserve.
Wyatt & Faith
Wyatt and Faith are a bonded pair who were trapped together along with their five kittens. While the kittens have all found their forever homes, Wyatt and Faith remain in foster care, working on building trust with people. They are extremely shy but are slowly learning to feel more comfortable in their new environment.
Gary
Gary is a beautiful, fluffy tabby with a playful and curious nature. While he’s a bit timid, he’s always interested in interacting with people when it’s on his terms—whether it's for food or play. Gary loves chasing the laser pointer and playing with small fuzzy mouse toys. This handsome boy is FIV positive and came to us from the streets, likely due to a tough past that led to his FIV infection. Gary is extremely shy with new people, so he would thrive in a home with adults only who can give him the space and patience he needs to feel safe.
