Diesel came to CATS in 2025 when she was a scared, 10 week old kitten, after being rescued from outside. She does best in a home full of love, patience, and the opportunity to come around in her own time. Diesel is a pro at communicating her boundaries and takes a while to warm up to new faces and environments. While she’s still learning to trust you, she may voice her boundaries with a hiss or a swat.

That said, she does have a hard time turning down yummy wet treats – the key to building rapport with this girl. As Diesel gets more comfortable in her home, she is known to begin coming out of her shell and showing her true colors: a lover of playtime, purring for pets, loves being brushed, and getting her zoomies out at night. Diesel is looking for her special person or family who will shower her with love and appreciate her for the girl she is – a young cat still learning to trust the world, waiting for a family she feels safe with.

Diesel has been spayed/neutered, vaccinated and has received preventative flea and worm treatments.

CATS has a Trial Adoption program. This program allows you to take a cat home for a period of time before you finalize the adoption, to determine if you and the cat are a good lifelong match. Matches will be made for residents living on Vancouver Island only at this time.

Please note, the best applicant will be chosen for the best fit for the cat, adoptions are not on a first come first served basis.

Please note we do not adopt kittens on their own. They must be adopted in pairs or you must have a young cat already in the home as a mate.

Adoption fees:
Kittens, up to one year – $300
Adults, 1-10 years – $225
Adults, 10-15 years – $175
15+ years – TBD
