It’s been rather the week for the most recent cat at L’ami’s Garden Centre in North Bay, Ont.
“We got a shipment of bird seed in, we unloaded everything, my brother was on the forklift, shut the forklift off and heard some meowing,” said co-owner Casey L’ami.
The owners were questioning how among their cats might have already entered into the order.
“We looked in there and there this little guy was, trapped between two pallets,” said L’Ami.
The cat made the journey to North Bay over 3 days coming all the method from Manitoba.

“We decided we were going to keep him. He got him checked by our friends over at the Callander Animal Hospital,” said L’Ami.
“Everything is really good, he’s really healthy.”
The cat featured the name Bubba, however L’Ami said informed CTV News he wasn’t too responsive to the name so staff at the store chose to alter it.
“Because he came from Manitoba, we thought it would be kind of cool to give him a name that related to that, so we decided to call him Toby.”
Now, a week and a half into his brand-new experience at the garden centre, staff said he has actually settled right in.
“He’s extremely social, he will come right up to you. We’ve already had customers bring toys and drop off treats for him,” said L’Ami.
“He’s already part of the family.”
Toby signs up with 2 other cats already at the centre, Boots and Missy.
“He’s incredibly social, he will come right as much as you. We’ve already had clients bring toys and drop off treats for him,” said L’Ami.
