A huge thank you to everyone who ran, walked, donated, and supported our "RUN FOR THE CATS" team this year!

Our team was small, but mighty this year and we couldn't have asked for better weather! Our amazing team members completed the 5K either virtually or in person on Saturday, while others tackled the half marathon on Sunday. One dedicated team member even did both - running the 5K on Saturday and the half marathon the next day!

Thanks to everyone’s fundraising efforts, we raised an incredible $4,800 for the cats and kittens in our care. While we didn’t quite reach our $10,000 goal, we’re so grateful for every single dollar and all the support that came our way.

Thank you again to everyone who participated, donated, or cheered us on!

Donations are still open if you’d like to support our team! https://raceroster.com/events/2025/95235/2025-tcs-toronto-waterfront-marathon/fundraising-organization/63325

Update on the Sombrero Cats & Kittens!

The original seven kittens that were trapped have now safely arrived in foster care after spending a week being boarded at the vet. While they’re still quite nervous, they’re slowly settling in and starting to feel more comfortable.

All of the adult female cats trapped so far have been spayed and TNR’d. Local neighbours have kindly committed to feeding them and providing warm shelter through the winter. Sadly, these cats weren’t social enough to be brought indoors, but they will be cared for in the community.

This week, our trapper returned to the area and spotted at least ten more kittens and three adult cats, one of whom appears to be pregnant. Five of the kittens were successfully trapped and brought to the vet. With our foster homes completely full, we are incredibly grateful to our friends for stepping up and taking in these five kittens.

We must also thank our friends for trapping two adults, who will be TNR’d, and one kitten today. They will also help with more kittens when they are trapped.

It truly takes a village and we are very thankful when rescues help each other!

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has donated toward the care of these cats and kittens. Your generosity truly makes this lifesaving work possible!

HOUSTON UPDATE!

Remember this sweet boy? We asked for name suggestions—and settled on Houston, a name given in loving memory of one of our founding members’ late cats.

Houston came to us from animal services with an eye injury, and at first, we thought removal would be the only option.

As it turns out, his condition is more complex than we originally thought. Houston has been diagnosed with ocular FIP. While eye removal may still be necessary in the future, right now our focus is on getting him healthy.

He’s currently in a loving foster home and receiving treatment for FIP. Once he’s stronger, our vet will reassess his eye and determine the next steps.

We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who donated toward Houston’s care - your support is helping us to provide his medications and care.

Stay turned for more updates as his treatment continues!

Thank you! ❤

UPDATE ON OUR "SOMBRERO CATS & KITTENS"

The Sombrero cats and kittens are still being boarded at the vet receiving round the clock care.

There are still five more kittens to trap, along with at least one other adult and one pregnant cat that will all need medical care as well.

We are truly humbled and thankful for our incredibly generous supporters! We had an anonymous donor who agreed to match all donations yesterday up to $1,000, which we were able to get.

Today, another amazing supporter, Irene B., as also offered another match up to $1,000!

To help us continue to care for the kittens still at the vet and those still to be trapped, please, if you are able to donate, help us reach another $1,000 match! Every dollar will help to make a difference!

We are also going to need fosters to help work with these scared kittens. If you are able to open your home to foster some of these cats and kittens, please fill out a foster application today!

To everyone who has donated so far, THANK YOU! You are making a huge difference in the lives of these kittens and cats, who would have faced a dangerous and potentially fatal life on the street.

URGENT: We Are Overwhelmed – We Need Your Help NOW!

Despite being closed for intake for months now, we keep taking cats because there are so many in need! This week, we were contacted about helping “a few” stray kittens in Mississauga. We had already rescued a few from the area, found wandering the streets alone, but despite our efforts, their mother was never found.

Until now.

When our volunteers arrived at the backyard where the kittens were spotted, it became clear there weren’t just “a few.” Kittens were coming from everywhere - at least 10 visible, with several adult cats nearby. Then more emerged. Some of the adults were visibly pregnant.

We had already committed to helping. So here we are: trapping kittens, adults, and pregnant moms, all in desperate need of care.

To make matters worse, they’re sick. Many are suffering from vomiting and diarrhea. We don’t know what they’re battling yet, so we can’t place them in foster homes until we get answers.

Thankfully, stepped up and took them all in last night. They're now in quarantine, undergoing urgent tests and care.

But we are in deep financial crisis. We’ve had nearly $10,000 in vet bills this week alone. Our funds are drained. We are at a breaking point.

Thank you to the trappers who came out several times to trap everyone for us!

We are BEGGING for your support. 💔

Please, ANY amount you can give helps—and tax receipts are available for donations over $20.

HOW YOU CAN HELP:
• DONATE: homeatlastrescue.ca/how-to-donate/
• FOSTER: homeatlastrescue.ca/foster-application/
• CONTRIBUTE to our Winter Wishes Auction: [email protected]
• SEND CAT OR KITTEN FOOD via our Wish Lists: homeatlastrescue.ca/how-to-donate/
• SHARE this post to spread the word.

We can’t do this without you. These cats and kittens are counting on all of us.

PLEASE HELP NOW!

Thank you!

ADOPT TOBLERONE & PURDY - the purrrfect pair!

This sweet, two-year-old brother-sister duo is full of affection and playful energy. Toblerone is a confident boy who loves toys (especially ones that jingle), belly rubs, and nose boops. He’s gentle, social, and even fascinated by water! Purdy is a soft, sweet girl who enjoys string toys, pets, and playtime. Both love zooming around, climbing high, and soaking up attention. Great with kids and other cats, they’re the perfect pair for a fun, active home.

Toblerone & Purdy have been with us since birth. They were adopted, but sadly returned two years later when their owner got engaged!

Since their return, there has been zero interest in this beautiful, friendly pair and we just don't know why.

In the hopes of finding Purdy & Toblerone their perfect home, we are reducing their adoption to fee to $500 for the pair.

To read their full profiles and apply to meet them, please visit our website: homeatlastrescue.ca/adoptable-cats/

Let's find Toblerone & Purdy their forever Home at Last!

FOSTERS DESPERATELY NEEDED!!

Kitten season is still in full swing — and it shows no signs of slowing down!
We're overwhelmed with the number of kittens and bottle babies in need, and we urgently need your help.

We are still in desperate need of fosters, especially now for kittens eating on their own! We are boarding litters at our vets, at an incredible expense, because we don't have foster homes for them.

We cover all veterinary expenses and can provide some donated food and supplies if needed. All you need to provide is a safe, loving space.

Please consider opening your home to a kitten (or two!) in need. If you can't foster, please SHARE our posts for wider exposure.

Sign up to foster today: homeatlastrescue.ca/foster-application

Thank you!
