My story

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

Please meet Sunny! He was found on a very cold day last January covered in fleas and completely emaciated. He was so thankful for food in his belly and a warm place to sleep that he purred nonstop for days! Sunny was adopted in February and through no fault of his own, he was recently returned to Paws on my Heart Rescue.

After several months of lavish meals and a pampered indoor life, Sunny is now a healthy almost 20 pound kitty! He can get playful with the laser pointer, however, he is mostly over the kitten craziness. He loves to look outside in between naps and snacks.

It's hard to know exactly how old Sunny is, but our guess is 4-7 years old. He does well with dogs and kids that respect his space. He has impeccable little box skills. Sunny is so very loved at his foster home, but he is so very deserving of his forever home. Sunny is positive for feline leukemia, so he will need to go to a home without other kitties or a home with another feline positive kitty.

We get many inquiries, so a submitted application is the quickest way to move to the next steps. An approved application is even better!

You may be contacted if we have further questions after reviewing your application. This usually happens over the phone or by text.

A POMH volunteer will initiate the checkout process using a program called Shelterluv. This is where you review the Adoption Contract.

Go meet their pets

We always have many available cats up for adoption. There are tons in Carmel at Pawz Pet Cafe and there are always several in the Petco Adoption Room off 116th & Keystone. Since we are a foster-based rescue, many are with a foster, but don't hesitate to contact us.

Meetings can be arranged to meet the kitty of your dreams! We also bring in more groups of cats and kittens to Petco every Saturday from 12-4pm. Come meet our furry friends, wonderful volunteers, and head Cat Rescue Lady, Martha Strong.

Our cats are all spayed/neutered, microchipped, up-to-date on their FVRCP (distemper) vaccines, and given general de-wormer. Most of our cats are FeLV/FIV tested, and rabies shots are given to most cats over 3 months old.

More about this rescue

We are a Federal 501(c)(3) nonprofit feline rescue group established in 2018. We work in many Indiana counties, including Hamilton, Marion, Delaware, and many places in between. We run on 100% volunteers and donations.

Our Mission:
To rescue, rehabilitate, and re-home cats and kittens in need. We aim to educate the public about responsible pet ownership and the importance of spaying and neutering in order to create a community that values the well-being of all cats. And even if we can't help directly, we utilize our contacts and various resources to assist to the best of our ability.

Our Values:
- We are a no-kill rescue. We believe that every cat deserves a chance at life. We do all we can to rehabilitate even the most troubled cats and place them somewhere they can live their best lives.
- We do NOT support or allow declawing of our cats. We sometimes rescue cats that have previously been declawed and may consider placing them with a family that prefers a declaw.
- We require our adoptees to be indoor cats for their safety and well-being.

Our adoption application includes our rescue's terms and policies. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Our Vision:
A society free from the challenges of feline overpopulation, and where responsible pet ownership is second nature. We seek a world where the public is well-informed on animal matters in order to provide the best care for their furry companions.
