The Home at Last Rescue mission is to rescue cats from substandard living conditions and give them better lives.

We will provide medical care, emotional support, and a loving environment while preparing them to find their new homes, throughout the GTHA.

Happy New Year to our incredible community of supporters and volunteers! As we bid farewell to a very long and busy 2025 and welcome 2026, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to all of you for your unwavering support throughout the past year.

Whether it was through financial donations, contributions of food and supplies, active participation in our auctions, supporting our runners on our “Run for the Cats” team, joining us for our 2nd Annual “Putts 4 Paws” golf tournament, your generosity has helped us make a positive difference in the lives of hundreds of cats this year, including over 560 that have found their forever homes!

When we asked for help, you listened! Because of you, we were able to save so many cats that needed extensive medical help: Chipmunk, Dobby, Fuji, Houston, Scar, Scooch and Share Bear to name just a few. You helped us to help TNR over 100 cats! Your food donations, whenever we asked, helped us feed over 600 cats and kittens in foster!

We hope you will join us in 2026 for our online auctions, 50/50 draws, 4th annual “Run for the Cats”, 3rd annual “Putts 4 Paws” golf tournament and other exciting events, all to support the cats and kittens in our care.

As we close out this year and look forward to the next, we are filled with hope and excitement for the lives we'll change together. Thank you for being the lifeline these cats needed. We could not do it without you!

We wish you a 2026 filled with joy, good health, and prosperity.

As we close out 2025, we wanted to share an update on Share Bear following his recent MRI—made possible by the incredible generosity of our supporters.

Share Bear and his brother Funshine came into Rescue at just 48 hours old after their mom rejected them. From the beginning, Share Bear showed a noticeable wobble and difficulty walking, which led us to seek further testing.

Thanks to your generosity and our amazing matching donors, Share Bear received an MRI, CT scan, and spinal tap. These confirmed a diagnosis of Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH). The specialists also noted that his corpus callosum did not fully form in utero, but they are not concerned about his quality of life or lifespan.

While Share Bear is a shaky little guy, it doesn’t slow him down. He plays, cuddles, uses the litter box perfectly, eats well, and can run when he wants to. He can’t climb and does best in a home without stairs, though he can manage them slowly. He loves being carried like a baby and cuddling for hours. Funshine has no physical limitations and is just as affectionate. They truly are the best of friends!

Both boys are wonderful with respectful children, cats and dogs and our final wish for 2025 is to find them a forever home at last together - one that will love them equally and accept Share Bear just as he is.

If you are interested in adopting Share Bear and Funshine, please complete an adoption application and our team will reach out.

Meet Kane!

Kane has been with us for nearly 260 days, and we truly can’t understand why. He’s an amazing guy - playful, friendly, and great with both cats and dogs. And just look at that handsome face!

Our Christmas wish is for Kane to finally find the forever home at last he’s been waiting for. Could that be with you?

To learn more about Kane, visit his full profile at homeatlastrescue.ca/adoptable-cats.

Please share to help us spread the word and find Kane the loving home he deserves.

Tavasz & Primavera have been in our care for 249 days!

We truly don’t understand how these two haven’t been adopted yet. At just nine months old, this bonded brother-and-sister duo is the definition of perfect companions - playful, cuddly, affectionate, and full of love. They have everything you could hope for in a pair of kittens and more!

Our Christmas wish is to finally see Tavasz & Primavera settle into the forever home at last they so deeply deserve. 🎄

To learn more about these sweet siblings and view their full profile, please visit our website: homeatlastrescue.ca/adoptable-cats

Please share this post with friends and family to help us spread the word and find them the loving home they’ve been waiting for.

Thank you!

SHARE BEAR UPDATE

Our Share Bear spent the day at the vets having his CT, MRI and Spinal Tap done. While it will still be a few days before we get the final report, we do know that it is not neuro FIP or hydrocephalus.

It appears he has an abnormal cerebellum (which indicates CH) and corpus callosum, which can cause coordination issues. Until we receive the final report from the neurologist, we don’t have much else to report at this time.

Thank you to everyone who sent positive thoughts and prayers. We will update more as soon as we can!

09/12/2025

Today is Share Bear’s big day!

He’s off to the vet this morning for his MRI, CT scan and possible spinal tap. To say we’re nervous is an understatement, but we know it’s important to get the diagnosis we need to prepare for his future.

We’re only able to do this because of the generosity of our supporters this past GivingTuesday.

Thank you to everyone who donated to help Share Bear.

Please send all of your positive thoughts and prayers for him today. We will update as soon as we have information to share.

YOU DID IT!

Because of YOU, our amazing supporters, we reached our goal of $6,000!

That means we’ll be receiving our full matching donation of $6,000, bringing us to an incredible total of $12,000.

We are truly humbled and so grateful for every single person who donated. Thanks to your generosity, Share Bear will get the MRI he needs, and we’ll be able to help even more cats in our care. We’ll share updates on his prognosis as soon as we have them.

A very special thank you goes out to for their generous corporate donation and to our amazing matching donors: our anonymous $5,000 donor, and our $1,000 matching donors, Roger L. and Z. Your kindness gives us the strength to keep doing what we do every day.

On behalf of Share Bear and everyone here at Home at Last Rescue, THANK YOU!

We wish you a happy, healthy, and safe holiday season!

Thanks to your incredible generosity, we’ve officially reached the $3,000 mark!

We’re halfway there - but we still have until 11:59 pm tonight, December 2, to reach our full $6,000 match, and we truly need your help to get across there.

There’s another side of rescue we don’t talk about nearly enough: TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return). Whenever we’re asked to take kittens from a site, we always TNR the adults - because if we don’t, the cycle never ends. It’s the responsible thing to do, even though it often comes at a huge cost.

Just this past month, we were asked to take in six kittens from a site outside our usual area. We agreed to help, but of course we couldn’t leave the unfixed adults behind. They were all spayed and neutered. It’s the responsible thing for rescues to do. These are cats we’ll never receive adoption fees for, and the total cost for their vetting was $2,400.

And that’s only one example. Throughout this year, Home at Last Rescue has covered the cost of cleaning up several colonies - quiet, necessary work that prevents countless unwanted litters. Unfortunately, most areas don’t have low-cost or free TNR options, and the few that do often have months-long wait times… time these cats simply don’t have before another round of pregnancies begins. If more cats were spayed and neutered, rescues wouldn’t be drowning in this ongoing burden.

How can you help? Please consider making a donation today.

Every dollar donated will be matched up to $6,000, giving us the chance to bring in a total of $12,000 - funds desperately needed not only for Share Bear’s MRI, but also to help us cover essential, out-of-pocket TNR costs.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and continued support.
