Meet Gus Gus.

Gus Gus arrived at SOS from Stanley Mission as a reportedly injured and abandoned cat. To put it politely, he was having a rough go. He arrived smelling strongly of urine, sleeping in his litter box, and looking like life had been less than kind to him.

Fast forward to today, and Gus Gus has undergone a complete career change.

Rather than surviving on the streets, he has appointed himself as the full-time personal bodyguard to the President of SOS Prairie Rescue. Named after the lovable mouse from Cinderella, Gus Gus spends his days staring adoringly at Ashlyn while simultaneously monitoring every potential threat to her safety.

Going outside? Gus Gus is at the window yelling, “Be careful!”

Someone at the door? He’s already there, pushing past everyone and issuing a stern warning growl to suspicious visitors.

Trying to use the bathroom alone? Absolutely not. Expect loud complaints from the other side of the door.

Giving attention to another foster cat? Offensive. Unacceptable. A direct violation of Gus Gus protocol.

In Gus Gus’s professional opinion, his job is to supervise every moment of every day, and frankly, he’s excellent at it.

As charming as he is, Gus Gus does come with one small maintenance requirement. He has been diagnosed with eosinophilic granuloma complex, which appears to be related to food allergies. Thankfully, management is straightforward: a strict veterinary-prescribed diet and occasional steroids if he experiences a flare-up. That’s it. No complicated treatments, no scary prognosis—just a cat who needs to stick to his special menu.

The funny part? The scruffy tom cat who survived who-knows-what in Northern Saskatchewan now happily eats prescription food, attends adoption events, and tries on cowboy hats and sunglasses like a seasoned professional.

Gus Gus has worked hard to get where he is today, and while he’s taken his security duties very seriously, it’s time for him to find a family of his own. One that will appreciate his loyalty, his oversized personality, and his unwavering commitment to being involved in absolutely everything you do.

We’re looking for a foster-to-adopt, foster, or forever home for this unforgettable little bodyguard.

Just be prepared.

You’ll never pee alone again.
