Benedict

History:
Benedict was rescued by another organization and they reached out to us to help him find his forever home. He’s ready to meet a family that will love him as much as he loves cuddles! ❤️

Description:
Benny is the ultimate chill companion 😎. He’s a total snuggle bug who loves to bury his face in your neck for cuddles. He’s super laid-back and doesn’t bat an eye at other pets—he’s completely fine around dogs 🐕 and even the grumpiest of cats 🐈‍⬛.

He’s talkative, playful, and affectionate, making dinner time his absolute favorite 🍽️. Benny also enjoys being brushed ✨, watching birds out the window 🐦, and lounging in a cozy covered cat bed basket 🛏️—but don’t worry, he’ll always come running when you call!

If you’re looking for a sweet, mellow, and lovable kitty who’s happy to snuggle, play a little, and just enjoy life with you, Benny is your guy! 🖤

Molly

History:
Molly comes from a past of neglect and abuse, but despite everything she has endured, this sweet girl continues to ask for love and affection. She is a quiet, gentle soul who simply wants to be close to her people—preferably curled up on your lap making biscuits. 🐾

While Molly doesn’t particularly seek out other animals, she can tolerate them with slow and respectful introductions, though she would truly shine as the only pet soaking up all the love.

Molly has received excellent medical care while in rescue. She had a hernia repaired, received dental care, and her frostbitten ears are now almost fully healed. Today, she has a clean bill of health and is ready to enjoy the comfort and safety of a loving forever home. 💕

Description:
Molly is truly the prettiest girl—scars and all. Her adorable shortened ears and the soft fur growing back from surgery only add to her unique beauty and tell the story of the resilient little warrior she is. ✨

Even after everything she has been through, Molly chooses love. She trusts deeply and shows her gratitude in the sweetest ways. If you’re looking for a true snuggle bug, Molly is absolutely your girl. She adores being close to her people and will happily spend hours curled up beside you—or even better, right on top of you—kneading away with her happy little biscuits. 🥹🐾

One of Molly’s most charming quirks is her short nubby tail that wags back and forth when she’s being petted, like she just can’t contain how happy she is. It’s the kind of sweet moment that makes everyone who meets her fall instantly in love.

Molly is gentle, affectionate, and wonderful with people of all ages. All she wants now is what she has always deserved: a safe, loving home where she can spend her days cuddling, trusting, and being cherished for the beautiful survivor she is. 🤍🏡🐾

Adoptable Cats

Nex

History:
Nex came into care extremely timid and unsure of the world. With patience and a calm environment, he has made wonderful progress and continues to gain confidence every day.

Description:
Nex is a 12-pound medium-haired sweetheart with a big personality and an even bigger purr. He looks like he may have a little Maine Coon in him — just in a slightly smaller package — and his soft coat doesn’t shed much. What he does do is purr… loudly. You can hear his happy rumble from across the room, even when he’s simply lounging nearby.

One of Nex’s most striking features is his beautiful, soulful two-colored eyes — one bright blue and one warm yellow — which give him a truly unforgettable look.

He’s an affectionate and talkative boy who absolutely loves being held, especially if he can rub his face against your chin. Nex enjoys cuddling, though he’s adorably clumsy about it and often leans or balances awkwardly against you or nearby furniture. He’s also known to circle your legs enthusiastically just to make sure you know he’s there — he truly loves being close to his people.

As Nex has grown more confident, he has discovered the joy of toys, zoomies, and playful pouncing. His playful nature helped him come out of his shell, and he continues to blossom every day. He’s very food-motivated and a quick learner who is already picking up little routines around mealtime. Nex is a smart boy who would likely enjoy learning tricks or interactive games with his family.

He is currently living peacefully with a rabbit and has even started trying to play by flopping onto his side to invite interaction. With slow introductions, he may do well with other calm pets. Because new situations can initially make him nervous, Nex would do best in a quieter home with patient people who can give him time to settle in and build trust.

Nex thrives on companionship and would love a home where someone is around often — a work-from-home or homebody lifestyle would suit him beautifully. Once he feels safe, his loving and entertaining personality shines through, complete with the occasional adorable “blep.”

With his sweet nature, playful spirit, and huge heart, Nex will make a wonderful companion and a loving addition to a lucky household

Giddy

History:
Giddy Kitty was originally living as an outdoor cat in a lake community, where he slowly built trust with kind humans who cared for him. After arriving injured from a likely altercation, he was brought into care for veterinary treatment, and never looked back. He has since transitioned beautifully to indoor life.

Description:
✨ Giddy Kitty truly lives up to his name: he’s a happy, affectionate boy with a heart of gold. Once he bonds with you, he becomes your loyal little shadow, always wanting to be part of whatever you’re doing.

☀️ Whether it’s lounging in the sun, supervising daily tasks, or curling up on his favorite heated blanket, he just wants to be near his people.

💬 He’s gentle, talkative, and full of charm, often “chatting” to check in or call out for company. He loves simple joys like toy mice, cozy naps, and quiet companionship.

🩺 Giddy has transitioned to indoor living perfectly and handles care (even medications) like a total pro.

🐾 While he’s still being slowly introduced to other cats, he has shown calm curiosity and would likely do well with a patient, respectful introduction.

💛 He will make an incredibly devoted and loving companion, always by your side and ready to share in life’s quiet moments.

💛 Giddy Kitty would thrive in a loving home where he can continue to feel safe, cherished, and connected. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will quietly steal your heart, he might just be your perfect match

Kenji

History:
Kenji was found straying around his neighborhood before coming into foster care. Since moving indoors, he has embraced the comfort and safety of home life and continues to blossom every day.

Description:
Hi! My name is Kenji, which means “smart leader” — and my foster family says it suits me perfectly. I’ve adapted beautifully to indoor living and have taken it all in stride, from the hum of the furnace to the rumble of the washer and dryer.

I’m a very clever and respectful boy. When told “no,” I listen. Even though I’m curious about what’s beyond the doors (especially the one where the treats are kept!), I patiently wait like a gentleman. I’ve learned how to play with wand toys, sniff out goodies in my snuffle mat, and I absolutely love food and catnip — they’re the way to my heart.

The vet described me as sweet and kind, and I truly am. I enjoy affection and will gently put my paws on your lap when I’d like to come up for a cozy nap. After spending time on the streets, I can be unsure of sudden or unusual noises, so a calmer home would suit me best. With time in my home I get used to my surroundings and more and more confident.

With other cats, I’m curious and interested. I would do best with a slow, supportive introduction to other animals.
I’ve come such a long way and am so ready for a forever home of my own. Will you be the one to take me home? 🖤🤍

Adoptable Cats

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. 💕🐾

Adoptable Cats

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. 💕

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.

Buffy

History:
Buffy was found alone in a field behind a Walmart, abandoned at a very young age. Thankfully, she was rescued and brought into foster care where she has been given the chance to feel safe, loved, and protected. 💛

About Buffy:
Buffy has come an incredibly long way since the day she was discovered. When she first arrived in care, she was understandably shy and unsure of the world around her. Everything changed when she met her foster home’s senior blind cat, Zamboni, who quickly became her trusted “papa” and mentor. With his calm and gentle presence, Buffy learned that she was safe — and her confidence began to grow. 🌱

Even during her shy days, Buffy’s sweet nature was impossible to miss. She would purr softly at the mere sight of her humans, quietly showing her desire to connect. 💕

With time, patience, and reassurance, she has blossomed into a beautiful, confident young lady. Now, Buffy seeks out affection and absolutely loves head scratches. She’ll happily press herself against her foster mom’s leg, purring nonstop while soaking up attention. 🥹

She is playful, curious, and continues to grow braver every day. 🐾✨

In a new home, Buffy may need a little time to adjust. She would do best with a patient, understanding adopter who will allow her to settle in at her own pace. Once she feels safe, she rewards that patience with unwavering affection, loyal companionship, and the sweetest, happiest purrs. 💗

Buffy is ready to find her forever family — one who will cherish her gentle heart and celebrate the confident girl she has become.

Tindy

History: Found in Rural Sherwood Park

Description: ✨ Hello. My name is Tindy.

The humans often call me Tin Tin. Occasionally they call me Chicken Tinder, though I’m not entirely sure what that means. I assume it’s a compliment. ☺️

Let me tell you – I live a very busy life.

My mornings start with an important decision: which sleeping spot should I move to next? The bed, a cozy blanket pile, my luxury cardboard house (I highly recommend), or a sunny window. Once this decision is made, I nap again. 😌

I spend my days hanging out with the other cats in the house (many of us were formerly feral, like me). We enjoy quiet companionship, mutual grooming, and sometimes what the humans call a cat pile — usually on top of the human herself. It is the best spot in the house!

In the evenings, things get exciting. I may run through the house at high speed for absolutely no reason, just to remind everyone that I am capable of great athleticism when required. ⚡

When I want attention, I become what the humans call a “Chatty Cathy.” I politely tell my favourite human that petting me is now her responsibility. If she performs her duties well, she may receive head boops and the occasional kiss. 💕

At bedtime I join her for snuggles and an important conversation about my day. I also strongly believe the bathroom should never be a private space. It is clearly meant for pets and companionship.

I do know my name and will come when called.

…sometimes. 😌

The humans say I’m a little shy at first, but once I feel safe, I’m sweet, curious, affectionate, and quietly hilarious.

If you’re looking for a gentle companion with a beautiful of personality, and the perfect nuzzle belly, I might just be your girl.

Now if you’ll excuse me… I have a nap scheduled. 🐾

— Tin Tin

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
