Hungry and Homeless Cat Rescue

Hungry and Homeless Cat Rescue Please help us help the hungry and homeless cats in downtown Ottawa. The cats are taken to a Vet for evaluation and assistance as soon as possible.

We are in need of Foster and Permanent Homes to get these poor abandoned cats and kittens off the street and into a warm place for the winter. When we find or hear of a cat or family living outside on their own, a member of HHCR finds them and evaluates their situation. In almost all cases the animals are undernourished, hurt, diseased, parasitic, dirty and sometimes freezing to death. When the an

imal is in stable condition they are offered for adoption. As soon as possible in this process the cat is kept in a foster home to be cared for temporarily until adoption. Foster and adoption homes are evaluated to ensure the best situation for the cat(s).

We missed sharing the full moon Aug 27-28 night, and it was a special one due to the partial lunar eclipse. The sad news is that this was the last full moon before Fall, and there are soooo many cats / kittens still outside looking for homes, especially before the arrival of winter. 😿These 4 kittens (apparently 12-week-old littermates and apparently all sisters) - unverified by a vet - need permanent homes in pairs. If anyone is interested in adopting a pair, we can take them in and get them vetted - please email to discuss: [email protected] We currently don't have a foster home for them, nor the $ to vet & spay 4 kittens without an adoption fee. They are still outside and we were contacted by their feeders for help. Apparently the mother was a homeless cat who gave birth in their un-used barn, and then just disappeared a couple of days ago. 💔There are many predators out in the area. Paws crossed for them and hoping that the magic of the full moon & lunar eclipse - will help them and all the others, find wonderful loving responsible homes before the arrival of winter. ❤ And before more homeless kittens are born outside if they survive... 😿🙏 Please share and help how you can!

This perfect sweet-natured 3-year-old beauty is still looking for her forever home. JODELLE is great with other cats, is fine with the resident dog, she would happy to have children play with, and she's a lap cat. What more could anyone want? ❤ Please email to inquire / adopt: [email protected]

The lovely sweet-natured affectionate petite 3-year-old lap-cat JODELLE is looking for her forever home. She is the perfect cat - beautiful, affectionate, sweet, gets along with everyone (other cats and the resident-dog), is non-aggressive, plays & acts like a kitten. ❤ She is spayed & vaccinated and just waiting for a home and family of her own. She would enjoy the company of other cats. Please share and email to adopt: [email protected] - her eye is OK, although it looks cloudy. Likely the remnant of of an old injury or virus from her former difficult life outside - she was rescued from a Colony.

PETS ARE NOT CHEAP!
Between exorbitant vet care costs and the high cost of nutritious food and everything else, it makes it unaffordable for many to own pets. 😿 Here's a study that breaks down the costs and provides tips on how to plan for / manage the expenses needed for responsible pet care.

We've taken in this poor scared little guy - BLAZE - who was part of a TNR group meant to go back outside. So tragic that he was brought in without his mother and/or siblings - he is so terrified.💔We are hoping he can reunite with them, and if that does not happen, we would like to pair him with a mother and kitten to comfort him - he could really use some mothering / feline support.😿BLAZE, who is currently a bit of a spitfire because he is so scared, is 12 weeks old. If you have a single kitten the same age and/or with a mother, please email if you would like to adopt this little fellow: [email protected]

Good news so far for MELBA & TRISCUIT!
So far their lab results show that all is good, and their exams did not detect any problems either. We had a surprise though - gray & white Momma MELBA (who we were told was 6 years old) was actually only estimated to be 1.5 - 2.5 years old, so she's also a young'un! This means she had TRISCUIT when she was only a kitten herself? Or she's TRISCUIT'S big sister from an earlier litter? Their potential adopters were also at the appointment and met these bonded beauties. Their decision to adopt is pending the test results, so fingers crossed for TRISCUIT (who has to go back in next week for a urine test, as she had an empty bladder after an accident).😿 Please cross your fingers, paws & toes for MELBA & TRISCUIT! 🙏❤

BLAIR PINEVIEW UPDATE! Poor BLAIR (black cat) is not having much luck. He was 1st noticed in March, limping badly, but never got help. A family started feeding him then and reached out to us to take him in when he started hanging around their place and sleeping on their doormat. We were all excited for him when he was adopted and thought that finally his life changed for the better. Unfortunately the resident cats hate him, so he may not stay in his adopted home. And to top it all off, his repeat testing this week indicates that he may have renal problems now (after having urinary crystals previouslyy), so he needs more testing in a couple of weeks.... Please send your thoughts & prayers to this absolutely sweet, cuddly affectionate playful energetic good-natured beauty - that life gives him the loving family & chance he deserves! 🙏🥰
