My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello everyone! My name is Hazelnut. I am a beautiful, petite, shorthaired, black-and-white, female kitty who is 2 years old. I am being spayed soon. I came into the shelter nursing a litter of week-old kittens. I was such a good mama, loving and nurturing, but it was so stressful. Luckily, this Rescue came and got us. My kittens flourished in foster care and went off to find loving homes of their own. Now it's my turn! I am a friendly, affectionate, loving kitty. I also like to play with kitty toys. I am 100% litterbox trained. I am good with other cats and I am best friends with my foster care buddy Macadamia. We ended up at the shelter together and she was pregnant too! We have a lot in common and even helped each other raise our kittens, nursing them together, taking care of them together. Our bond grew even stronger over long chats about raising babies and choosing good schools. We are inseparable and would love to find a home together. We are wonderful family pets and you'll be so happy you chose us! Please apply today! Adoption fee: $75. Adopt a pair: $110. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip and 30 days of free pet insurance.

NOTE ABOUT BREED LABELING: Visual breed identification of cats is unreliable and usually inaccurate. So, for most of our adoptable cats, we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each cat or kitten as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our cats based on personality, not by breed label.


Adoption Process: Complete the application at www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.
