Bun

History:
Bun is an incredible mama who lovingly raised her kittens and has now been spayed and is ready to be the center of attention in her very own forever home. She’s done her job beautifully and is excited to enjoy a life full of comfort, love, and well-earned relaxation.

Description:
We absolutely adore Bun — she’s one of those cats who steals your heart without even trying. This sweet girl lives for affection and happily soaks up pets, rubs, and kisses like a pro, preferably over being carried around. Her charming personality and
commentary will keep you engaged— Bun loves to “chat” with her humans and be part of the conversation!

Her happy place? Lounging in a cozy bed, watching the world go by, with her beloved catnip pickle never too far away 😆 Bun is affectionate, social, and full of character — the kind of cat who makes a house feel like home.

Teddy & Lark

History:
Teddy and Lark came into care after their beloved owner passed away from cancer. Their family reached out to ensure these boys could find a safe, loving home together, where they can continue to be cherished as they deserve.

Description:
Meet Teddy & Lark — a calm, affectionate pair of bonded brothers who are happiest when they’re together. You’ll often find them curled up side by side for cozy naps or quietly keeping an eye on their surroundings from a comfy spot nearby.

Teddy is true to his name: a gentle, sweet boy who loves lounging and being close to his people. He enjoys calm companionship and brings a soothing presence to the home. Lark is the curious one, easily recognized by his striking white coat, sleek black tail, and unique spots. He enjoys exploring his environment before settling in to relax with his brother.

Both boys enjoy affection, thrive in peaceful homes, and love simply being near their humans—whether that’s sharing the couch, relaxing at the foot of the bed, or soaking up quiet moments together. They would do beautifully in a loving home that welcomes them as the bonded pair they are.

If you’re looking for two easygoing, devoted companions who bring comfort and quiet joy, Teddy & Lark are ready to meet you. 🐾💙

Smudge & Magic

History: Smudge and Magic have grown up together in a loving, busy home environment. They share a close bond and balance one another beautifully. They are now ready for a quieter forever home where they can receive more one-on-one attention and affection—together.

Description:

Smudge and Magic are the perfect complementary pair—affectionate, loyal, and wonderfully easy to live with.

Smudge is the tender-hearted cuddle bug of the duo. He absolutely loves love and proudly rises onto his tippy toes for bum scratches. While he prefers not to be picked up, he’s happiest curled up beside you—especially at bedtime, where he’ll snuggle in close and adjust himself just right. He may follow you around for pets or treats and surprise you with the occasional burst of zoomies before retreating to his beloved sunny hanging bed.

Magic is the happy-go-lucky shadow who keeps life fun. He’ll race you to the next room, offer gentle head bumps and adorable little “drum” taps, and settle nearby to supervise your day. He prefers all four paws on the ground and shows his love through steady companionship—sleeping at your feet at night and relaxing in cozy spots during the day.

Together, they offer the perfect balance of sweetness and companionship. They enjoy being near their people, soaking up affection, and then lounging peacefully side by side. If you’re looking for a bonded pair of gentle, affectionate boys who will fill your home with warmth (and the occasional synchronized zoomies), Smudge and Magic are ready to make your home their forever. 💛

Lily

History:
Sweet Lily came into our care following the heartbreaking loss of her owner. After experiencing such a sudden change, she has been on quite a journey. Two of her former housemates (Teddy and Lark) entered care first, and Lily joined us shortly after once she was spayed. She spent several weeks in one of our partner pet stores, but when she wasn’t adopted, we moved her into a foster home so she could receive the one-on-one love and stability she truly deserves. Lily has already been through so much, and she is more than ready to finally settle into a forever home where she won’t have to say goodbye again.
Description:
Lily is a petite, quietly confident girl with a gentle soul. She shows her affection in the sweetest ways—melting into your hand for chin scratches, weaving around your legs, and soaking up love on her own terms. While she enjoys attention, she’s also perfectly content relaxing in her own cozy space, happily observing the world around her. Lily is resilient, loving, and incredibly deserving of a calm, understanding home where she can feel safe and cherished. She’s patiently waiting for her happily-ever-after—and will make a wonderful companion for the lucky person who gives her that chance. 💕

Roxy

 
🏡 History:
Roxy was trapped as a feral cat after surviving in a neighborhood.
💖 Personality:
Roxy came into care and immediately showed her resilience and loving nature. She enjoys being held and seeks out human affection, especially from children. She has striking green eyes and a slight underbite with a square jaw that gives her a uniquely beautiful face 😻.
Roxy can be shy at first and may hide, but once she is gently brought out, she confidently walks around, purring and soaking up attention. If you’re looking to add a little light and love to your home, Roxy would make a wonderful companion 🐾✨

Queen

💜 History:
Queen was humanely trapped from a rural cat colony by HLH and brought into care. Having likely lived her entire life outdoors, she came to us fearful and unaccustomed to human touch.

🌸 Description:
True to her name, Queen carries herself with quiet dignity. She’s a gentle soul who values peace and routine, and she’s slowly learning that life indoors can be safe and comfortable. Queen shares her foster space with another cat, and the two respectfully coexist — suggesting she could do well with a calm feline companion.

This lovely girl will need a patient, understanding adopter who can offer her a calm, adult-only home and the time she needs to build trust. With consistent care and a gentle presence, Queen has the potential to blossom into a loving companion who finally knows she’s safe, cherished, and loved. 💕🐾

Coco

Her Story
Coco’s story is one of true resilience. Once at risk of euthanasia after being misunderstood and labeled “unadoptable,” this stunning young cat was given a second chance by her caring foster family. With love, patience, and proper care, Coco has blossomed into a sweet and gentle girl who’s learning that people can be kind and life can be safe.
Personality
Coco is a lovely mix of curiosity and calm. She enjoys quiet spaces, soft voices, and gentle affection from people she trusts. With time, she’s shown she can truly thrive when given consistency and understanding. Her medication helps her feel secure and confident, and she continues to grow more relaxed and affectionate each day.
She’s also harness trained and enjoys the occasional supervised stroll — a perfect outlet for her curious nature while keeping her safe and comfortable.
Ideal Home
Coco would flourish in a peaceful, adult-only home with patient adopters who understand cat body language and are willing to continue her gentle routine. In the right environment, she’ll reward her humans with quiet companionship and the joy of watching a once-frightened cat fully bloom.
✨ Coco has already come so far — now she just needs a kind, loving home to show her that she was never “unadoptable” at all.

Tindy

History: Found in Rural Sherwood Park

Description:

✨ 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. Back then, I was so scared that people thought I was “feral.” But guess what? I’ve blossomed into a sweet, gentle companion with a big heart and a playful streak. 💕

Description:
Here’s a little about me:
🐾 I don’t like being picked up, but I love weaving around your legs for pets (and maybe sneaking a treat or two).
🐾 Your favorite couch spot? Yeah… it’s mine now. Don’t worry, I’ll let you squeeze in beside me.
🐾 Sunshine is my jam — you’ll find me lounging in the catio or tucked into my cozy hut on the cat tree.
🐾 I’m playful and curious, and I’ll happily bury my nose in the toy box until I find the perfect toy to carry off.

I’m looking for a mature, calm household where my boundaries are respected, but my gentle, silly personality can shine. If you’re patient, kind, and ready to share your life (and your couch!) with me, I just might be the girl for you. 💖

📩 Apply today with Hope Lives Here Animal Rescue Society — I can’t wait to meet you!

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?

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

Meatball

📜 History:
Meatball spent his early days navigating the outdoors until a caring neighbour noticed him and made sure he wasn’t left to weather the cold alone. Thanks to their kindness, this glossy little wanderer is now safe, warm, and discovering the softness of indoor life just in time for winter.

✨ Description:
Meatball is a whisper-soft gentleman — polite, observant, and quietly endearing. His only ongoing mischief? He’s still learning that human food isn’t part of his menu, a habit leftover from his resourceful street-survival days.

He’d thrive in a calm home where he can shadow his person like a little midnight moon, slipping between cozy hidey spots and the comfort of a welcoming lap. Once invited, he melts into chin scratches, slow blinks, and gentle companionship.

This handsome house panther is still figuring out the joys of being an indoor cat: toys, safety, affection, and routines that don’t involve braving the elements. His confidence is blooming, and watching him unfold is a privilege all on its own.

Whoever adopts this velvety sweetheart will gain a loyal, tender companion who’s ready to trade the cold world for a warm heart. 💛🐾
