Peaches & Puffin’s Adoptive Stories

Peaches and Puffin adopted us in January 2024 (rescuing us not long after we lost our 13-year-old cat Cooper). They arrived in Mississauga by way of a trailer park in Texas – a story that resonated with us as my husband and I are American and Canadian. We love road trips, border crossings, and vast open spaces in the American west. The Mississauga Humane Society ensured these cats, a bonded pair, were lovingly cared for by placing them in foster care until they moved over to their forever home, with us. Renamed Bear and Texas, these two have had a big year – traveling to Arizona, glamping at the Grand Canyon (see picture), and passing through Utah for a week stay on our way to our summer cottage in Northern Saskatchewan. Road warriors, champion nappers, and playful companions. Home is where we are together.
