TinyPurring Rescue

TinyPurring is a well-being cat rescue group helping rehome cats, mostly in South Etobicoke.
Our top priorities are the cats’ health and happiness.
We rescue and socialize community cats and kittens and find them forever homes.
Founded in 2016, TinyPurring is a 100% volunteer run non-profit cat rescue. We count on our volunteers and community members to help us continue our rescue work.
TinyPurring traps, neuters/spays, and returns (TNR) community cats to their colonies. We provide daily feeding, shelter, and medical care for cats in registered colonies to help them lead their best lives outdoors.
Our vision is that all cats in South Etobicoke will have loving, safe homes, ending the need for colonies. TinyPurring provides a foster environment for cats in transition to their forever homes.
“Run to the rescue with love and peace will follow.”

TinyPurring takes amazing care of all kittens and cats who are up for adoption. TinyPurring takes them for spaying and neutering and makes sure any meds or treatments they need are taken care of. And they have an amazing play space and toys. So they’re well socialized. Beautiful kitties!

TinyPurring is an amazing organization. They really care about cats and finding them a good forever home. I really appreciate the time they take to get to know each potential adopter and helping them determine which cat is the best fit for them and their lifestyle. They were upfront with me about the temperament and needs of each cat I was interested in - whether the cat needed a companion, a quiet home, or lots of TLC, etc.. Magda is absolutely amazing with her wealth of knowledge and generosity. She was such a source of information and support for me when I adopted my kitty from TinyPurring. The "beginners pack" she gave me included everything I needed - it was sufficient to the point where I did not need to purchase anything else. A great organization of people who truly care about their adoptees. I cannot recommend them enough.
