Adoptable Cats

Tahlulu

💜 Tahlula (aka Tutu)

🌟 History

Tahlula and her sister Peach were found abandoned on a farm outside the city. While her sister was rescued quickly, clever little Tahlula managed to outsmart rescuers for a full week before finally coming into care. Her resilience and spirit shine through in her playful, curious nature today.



💕 Personality & Description

Tahlula is a gentle, sweet-natured kitten with the softest, velvety black coat and bright sunshine-yellow eyes. She can be a little shy at first, but once she trusts you, her affectionate and goofy side comes out.

✨ What makes Tahlula special:
• Sweet, playful, and a little bit talkative
• Loves to perch on the tallest cat tree like the queen she is 👑
• Food-motivated (treats are the way to her heart!)
• Enjoys following her people around – even into the bathroom to keep you company
• Gets along wonderfully with adult cats and enjoys their company
• Adores dogs and has the best time bonding with them
• Growing more confident with being picked up and held – she’s improving every day
• Will happily come for cuddles, scratches, and quality time

Tahlula would thrive in a loving home that can give her patience, playtime, and attention. She’d be especially happy with an animal companion to show her the ropes and play with, and she’d do well with older, gentle kids.

🐾 Ready to make Tahlula part of your family? She’s waiting to find her forever home where she can feel safe, loved, and adored for the playful little sweetheart she is

Description:

Ophelia is an absolute sweetheart of a cat. 100% sugar and 0% spice. She is SO gentle and sweet! She treats everyone like they’re her BFF and takes no time at all to warm up to you. She loves people

Ophelia is pure sweetness — gentle, affectionate, and endlessly loving. She bonds quickly, greeting you with soft chirps and trills, and is always happy to curl up beside you for quiet companionship. She’s polite, well-mannered, and never destructive, preferring cuddles, catnip toys, and peaceful naps by the window.

Ophelia’s ideal home is calm and caring, where she can enjoy cozy affection and the security she truly deserves. She would do great on her own and soak up all your love or could do well with supportive proper introductions to other animals.

Franny

✨ Franny’s Tale: A Queen Without a Castle (Yet!) ✨
Franny is a sweet, affectionate gal who is ready to find her forever home! She was found
running at large in Southern Alberta, emaciated and dirty, trying to fit in on a farm. Sadly, she
didn’t get along with the other cats, but her kind and people-oriented personality shone through.
Luckily, she was brought into rescue, fully vetted, and now she’s ready to meet her humans!

💖 Personality & Home Fit:

Loves cuddles, pets, and attention 🥰

Prefers a calm home — ideal as a single cat, but can share with patient cats 🐱


Good with respectful dogs 🐶
Friendly with children of all ages 👧👦

Low–medium activity level 💤

🌟 Special Traits:
Franny is partially deaf and has some vision loss, which is common in white cats. She
also had some teeth extracted when she came into rescue. None of this slows her
down—she eats, plays, and loves life just fine! Over time, her hearing and vision may
change, so some future accommodations may be needed to keep her safe.With her
striking blue eyes and fluffy white coat, Franny is truly a Disney-style kitty waiting to be
adored 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Bear

Bear’s Story:
Bear was found in Southern Alberta roaming a small town with his sister, mom, and extended family. The town was intersected by two busy highways, and sadly, many cats in the area met tragic outcomes trying to cross those roads. Fortunately, Bear and his family were rescued before danger could find them, and he’s now ready to begin his next adventure — finding his forever home!

About Bear:
Hey there! I’m Bear — though the humans here keep calling me Baby Bear 🐻 (I don’t think it’s very fitting, because I’m a big boy now!).
I used to live outdoors with my sister Minnie, and while it seemed fun at first, there were a lot of scary things out there — loud cars, big animals, and nowhere cozy to sleep. Life is so much better now! I get delicious meals, comfy beds, and tons of toys to play with.
I’m full of energy and love to play — seriously, I could chase toys for hours! I’m also a very talkative guy who enjoys chatting about my day. Because I’m young and full of beans, I’ll definitely need a feline friend around my age who can keep up with my zoomies and mischief.
If you’re looking for a lively, curious, and affectionate companion who will fill your home with fun and laughter, I’m your guy! 🖤

Jeremy aka Panda

History:
Panda came into care from Alberta Animal Services, went into rescue care and is now with our rescue to help him find his adoptive home. He’s such a great boy and has really grown into a much more confident cat. We hope you want to meet him 😊.

Description:
This sleek and majestic black panther will captivate you with his striking presence, made even more dazzling by the white star on his chest. No matter the angle, his beauty and elegance are undeniable.

Beyond his stunning looks, he has a heart of pure gold 💛 . He’s an incredibly sweet and affectionate companion who adores being showered with pets and attention. His laid-back nature makes him the perfect cuddle buddy, always ready to curl up beside you and soak in your company.

He would thrive best in a quiet, loving home with a supportive family that appreciates his gentle soul. While he enjoys affection, he also loves his peaceful moments—his absolute favorite pastime is finding a warm sunbeam to lounge in, where he can stretch out and bask in the golden glow.

If you’re looking for a loyal, easygoing feline friend, this handsome boy might be the perfect match!

✨ Hi, I’m Tindy! ✨

I may not have had the easiest start — I was found in rural Sherwood Park by a kind lady who reached out to Hope Lives Here Animal Rescue Society.

Tiggy Tig & Jetta

 
Their Story
Meet Tiggytig and Jetta — two charming tuxedo brothers with a rescue story straight out of a car commercial! These boys were found at a VW repair shop in Edmonton, born to a clever feral mom who has since gone missing. Luckily, caring volunteers stepped in, and the pair were brought into foster care where they’ve discovered the joy of toys, cuddles, and cozy naps — instead of cold concrete and car tires.
Personalities
Jetta is the outgoing explorer — brave, social, and always the first to investigate new things. He’s affectionate, purrs the second he’s picked up, and loves curling up in your arms before dashing off for his next adventure.
Tiggytig started off shy but has blossomed with time and trust. He takes his cues from his confident brother, and once he feels safe, he’s all in — playful, curious, and full of kitten charm. These two can often be found tumbling together, chasing wand toys, or batting around Dollar Store coils like it’s the best game in the world.
Why You’ll Love Them
Together, Tiggytig and Jetta are the perfect mix of fun and affection — balancing each other’s personalities while filling your home with laughter, purrs, and endless entertainment. They’ve come a long way from their tough start and are now ready for their forever home where they can grow, play, and snuggle side by side.
If you’re looking for a bonded pair of playful tuxedo brothers with big hearts and even bigger personalities, Tiggytig and Jetta are ready to drive straight into your heart!

Shadow

 History: Shadow was found completely alone and dangerously underweight — she was rescued just in time, before a bitter cold snap she likely wouldn’t have survived. Once in care with Hope Lives Here, she began her road to recovery. Because her foster mom has an immunocompromised resident cat, Shadow spent her early weeks isolated — a tough start after already being abandoned. A brief attempt to move her to another foster home didn’t work out, as Shadow displayed signs of stress that made her uncomfortable in that busy environment. She was quickly brought back to her original foster, where she settled again and showed how well she can do in the right environment. Based on that experience, a home without small children would be the best fit for her.

Health & Behaviour: Shadow is currently taking a low dose of fluoxetine (Prozac) to help manage her anxiety, and it’s working well. We believe her quirky behaviours — including occasional moments of nervousness or overstimulation — stem from her traumatic beginnings and long periods of isolation. With the stability of her current foster and the right support, she’s making wonderful progress and showing her playful, affectionate side. Personality: Shadow is a sweet, curious, and independent girl who loves to explore and play. She adores her dollar-store wand toy and benefits from interactive play and lots of things to scratch. She gets along well with the resident cat in her foster home and often snuggles nearby — including curling up beside your legs at bedtime. She would thrive in a home where someone is happy to play with her and understands that patience and consistency will help her continue to flourish. Shadow has already overcome so much. She’s ready for a forever home that will see beyond her cautious start and give her the safety, love, and playtime she truly deserves. Could that be with you?

Mouse

📜 History

Snickers

 

Sierra

History:

The story begins with a brave mama cat doing everything she could to keep her little family safe in the unforgiving Alberta weather. Despite the odds, she survived—resilient, resourceful, and determined to protect not just her and her four kittens, but also a young male cat, likely papa, who stayed close by her side.

As the temperatures dropped and snow began to fall, this incredible mama did something extraordinary—she reached out in the only way she could. She began to trust the kind humans who had started feeding her, sensing that help might be just around the corner. These humans noticed her growing family and knew they couldn’t face the cold alone.

That’s when the HLH Rescue team stepped in. With the help of dedicated foster volunteers, the cats were safely and patiently trapped, gently brought indoors, and given the love and care they so desperately needed. It wasn’t easy—these were cats used to surviving, not trusting—but little by little, they learned that warmth, safety, and kindness could be a way of life.

Thanks to one mama cat’s courage and a community that cared, they are now healthy, social, and thriving. Their journey started in survival—but today, they’re ready for something more: a forever home filled with love, play, and soft places to land.

If you’re looking for companions with heart, resilience, and a whole lot of personality, they are waiting for you. 💛

Some of the family has been adopted and now Papa Kringle, kitten Sierra and kitten Stewart are still patiently waiting their turns.

Description:
Sierra is a tall, elegant girl with stunning tabby markings and the grace of a little wildcat. Whether she’s zipping through the room with her sleek panther-like stride or curled up in a sunbeam, she’s absolutely captivating. Playful, curious, and quietly observant, she brings a quiet charm to every moment.

Still adjusting to the human world, Sierra is taking her time to build trust—but every day she shows us a little more of her heart. With her feline friends, she’s a natural. She integrated beautifully with the resident cats and clearly finds comfort in their company, often choosing to lounge nearby or follow them from room to room.

Sierra is looking for a calm, patient adopter who understands that the best bonds take time. Someone who won’t rush her, but will celebrate each little step she takes toward trusting you. Once she feels safe, she’ll reward you with her quiet loyalty, gentle presence, and maybe even a playful zoom or two.

If you have a peaceful home and a heart big enough to meet her where she is, Sierra might just be your perfect match. 💛

Bobby

History:
Bobbi and her feline friend Jovi 🖤 were rescued from a large colony near Mayfield Common in Edmonton, just before winter set in

Description:
Bobbi and Jovi arrived extremely fearful of humans . Bobbi had suffered a serious tail injury—half of it was missing, and despite treatment, it failed to heal. Eventually, the remaining portion had to be amputated, leaving her with an irresistibly cute bobcat-style tail

Despite the trauma she’s endured, Bobbi remains a sweet and gentle soul who longs to love and be loved. It’s heart-melting to watch her try to trust—nervously pacing back and forth, circling a little closer each time

At mealtimes, her confidence shines through. She trots in eagerly, meowing if you’re taking too long, and will even accept a few pets in exchange for her bowl.

Bobbi is also incredibly curious. She’s quick to investigate any activity in the room, her big, inquisitive eyes always alert . She’ll often tilt her head with a puzzled expression , as if trying to figure out why you keep pushing that loud vacuum back and forth . Her quirky personality peeks through more and more each day—it’s truly a joy to witness

With a little more patience and time, we’re sure Bobbi’s story will end in a much-deserved happy tail… er, tale
