Ladybug is the first cat we ever fostered. She came to us in May 2018 with a very funky haircut and serious intestinal issues. Now, ten months and lots of food trials later, her fur has grown back and she is on a grocery store bought, grain-free dry food that agrees with her. She is a wonderful cat who loves seeking out a lap to lie on in often head-scratchingly awkward poses. Ladybug is now officially available for adoption via the Toronto Human Society website: Animal ID No. 38227981

Snooker (a.k.a. Bubba a.k.a. Snookerdoodle a.k.a. Bubbaganoush) has progressed by leaps and bounds since the last photo of him I posted. In just over three months, this former feral has gone from being scared by most human interaction—only allowing himself to be pet via a soft duster on a long pole—to sleeping with us most of the night and even jumping up of the couch to curl-up between us while watching tv. A few more months and this toothless wonder might even turn into a lap cat.
It was no Polar Vortex, but this overnight shoot with Chris Nicholls on a parking garage rooftop in September for Canada Goose was pretty chilly, too.
Throwback to making it snow in May for Sorel boots.
Snooker is our latest foster. Originally a feral cat, he was part of a colony but had to be brought to the Human Society for dental issues that ultimately resulted in a full extraction of all his teeth. Without teeth for hunting and defence, he could not be safely released back into the feral colony.
He’s now with us making great progress towards full domestication. His lack of teeth often causes his tongue to stick out as well as giving him a bit of a Heath Ledger Joker-like grin. He’s also built like a bulldog with big shoulders, stumpy front legs and a wide stance.
We’ve taken to calling him Bubba.
