The cats below are available for adoption at the Lethbridge and District Humane Society. There are more cats shown on Facebook. To view any of the cats, you will need to make an appointment by calling 403-320-8991.
| Tahoe | This boy talks back and bosses you around and won’t stay still for a picture but he will if you’re ignoring him while also yelling at you for your audacity! Tahoe’s a sweet boy, he’s just not your typical cat. He likes to talk, he lands his jumps like an elephant and he does as he pleases… ok, well that one’s pretty cat typical… Anyways, he’s looking for someone to train – I mean, someone to love and spend the rest of his days with |  |
| Jingles | Jingles likes to find her own spot with a good toy and hang out by herself. You know, like when you have lunch in your car to decompress from the overly active, highly needy customer base that constitutes 95% of your job and you just wish you could say the things but then you’d get fired and that would look terrible!…Jingles. We’re talking about Jingles. Look, I’m not saying that Jingles won’t get along with other cats, she just doesn’t have the energy to be friendly with the other cats. Like, they touch her toys and try to lick her and are just generally annoying. And she definitely wouldn’t be putting up with these entitled jerks that expect you to give them service even when their attitude is a problem. No way – and neither should you! You deserve to be treated like a human being! And so does Jingles! Don’t forget about the massages. For you, too. |  |
| Tabitha | Tabitha is one of our beautiful, shy girls that likes things to stay the same all the time. Yup, she’s basically the reincarnation of your sweet little great grandmother with the bowl of hard candies and who had to have her tea, AT TEA TIME and hated it when ‘those whippersnappers’ were being too loud and would give you a dollar and say ‘don’t spend it all in one place now’ and there was no doubt she loved you to the moon and back. Tabitha will enjoy a quiet house with no young children and maybe a laid back dog that doesn’t jump around. If you really want to win her over, she loves ribbons! Get yourself a wand with some and she’ll forget all about tea time. |  |
| Sonny | This character is still available! He will give you joy and stories and maybe even generate so much heat at night that you’ll need less blankets! And he’d prefer to be the one and only in your life, so there’s no having to balance love between the animals – you can just give it all to him! Just remember your 3s! 3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn the new routine and 3 months to feel at home. Is this dependant upon the animal? Of course! But this is a good starting point! |  |
| Satin & Chenille | Satin is the more outgoing one and wants affection more often than not. Chenille is the shy and sweet one. I mean, these sisters both have a healthy dose of stranger danger. They won’t crawl into your lap right away. They have to know that they can trust you 1st! And then they’ll start showing off. Like, letting you know they know where the good food is stored and – their favorite – the Disappearing Cat Toy trick! |  |
| Quinn | Quinn has plenty of things to do and sights to see, so don’t think you can just laze about all day with her! You’ll need to at least rescue all of her toys from under the couch and just start accepting the fact now that for every good photo you get of her, there will be 20 blurry ones that precede it. Quinn is a beautiful girl with some unique markings on her sweet little face and she’s a little lacking in her understanding of boundaries so she will suddenly fly-by bomb the other cats and volunteers while she’s playing. The other cats do not appreciate her sense of humour! |  |
| Bren | Bren is a beautiful lady but she does kind of melt into the background. In a sea of cats, she’s perfectly fine not having the spotlight on her. Which means that she has been over looked time and time again for just not standing out. She would do great in a home – just don’t ask her to do weird things like come out and meet the strangers. Someone just needs to give this aloof beauty a chance. |  |
| Dillon | Dillon is a forever single man would like to take over your lap when you’re home and chirp at the birds while you’re at work and maybe hide a few things you won’t notice are missing right away. Like a couple of those Q-tips you foolishly left on the bathroom counter. I know he looks a little silly with his big butt in the air and getting a chin scratch besides, but don’t let this minor break in character fool you – Dillon is a very serious man. |  |
| Mendlessohn & Strozzi | Mendlessohn & Strozzi are our sister duo. Now, it’s not that Mend wouldn’t be able to figure out life by herself, it’s that Strozzi would fall apart in a puddle of self doubt if she didn’t have her sister around and Mend just couldn’t have that on her conscious so these two are looking for home together. These two are pretty friendly and come running to the door to see if it’s their favourite people come to visit them. They are a little overly cautious around new things so they do need a patient sort of person in their lives to reassure them that ‘everything is ok’ and ‘new isn’t bad’, but a calm voice and the promise of a good brush will talk them around most things. |  |
| Derrick | Derrick is a super nice boy with shortened ears from frostbite and a delicate digestive system. Let’s face it, eating what you can on the streets is like the diet of college kids – some of us make it out ok but some of us don’t and have to eat Tums whenever we look at fajitas – and now Derrick needs a friendlier diet. Will he pay you back in super cuddles and always listen to you when you need to say something? You bet! Can you brush him while you’re talking, though? He’d really appreciate it. |  |
| Mr. Schmidt | Mr. Schmidt is one of our senior boys who’s come to stay with us. What’s wrong with him? He’s old. He’s not grumpy – far from it. He still wants to follow you around, he’s just a bit slower; his meow is a little croaky; his blood pressure is a little high (he has meds for that); he has no interest in that new fangled diet these hippies want to put him on but so far those same hippies have given him an assortment of big fluffy beds to lounge in, and they’re great. Schmidt would like to go to a quiet home. Other cats are ok, as long as they aren’t kittens (he’s a little too old to babysit). His former human pal was elderly, so he’s used to that sort of life. You know, the sitting in the sunshine, or curled up with a book, or re-watching an old movie like Now You See Me, a little massage, a good snack – what we all strive for our Sundays to look like but every single day! |  |
| Cassidy | Cassidy is the Ruler of the Void, the Purveyor of Croaks, the Giver of Finite Attention. This big girl really should have been moved to the Big Cat Room but she is still in Kitten because she just really prefers the quiet consistency of the smaller place, so we’re pretty sure she’s also going to need a low-key home. Also, she croaks. Her meow is broken and now she just responds to all of your riddles with a single croak while she demands more head scratches. You have to go to work? Sorry, dude, you’re going to have to call in and tell them you’re going to be late because the Void is calling. |  |
| Dot | Dot is a sweet, friendly and quietly curious little lady. She’s happy for the company she gets and the cuddles you’re willing to give her but she can also give you the classic Mom Look when you do something you shouldn’t. We don’t have a lot of history on this pretty girl as she was just dropped off on our doorstep, so if you want her around dogs, we will have to test her, but we know that the other cats give her no issues. We do know that she will pop up at your elbow unexpectedly for a good head scratch and would probably love movie marathons with you both on the couch in a snuggly blanket. |  |
| Sally | This little tabby lady is looking for a quiet home that realizes a little patience goes a long way. She lost her previous home due to unforseen circumstances and is now looking for her forever family. She can be tested with dogs if necessary, is ok with low energy cats and is looking for a quiet home to settle down in. |  |
