My sister Bryn is my friend; she’s also like a mother. I’m Morgan, a very shy, petite brown tabby and white young adult girl. When the shelter we’d been staying in was closing in April, Paws and Claws took us in. We’re still here. We both were very nervous and overwhelmed by the constant flow of visitors here. I am especially wary of people I don’t know, and I was hiding a lot. I hid from staff, volunteers, and people who came to adopt kitties, so many kitties. After we moved to a new area, I slowly started coming out of my shell. I’m happier now. There are some volunteers who talk to me softly, and I am more trusting. I startle easily, but mostly, I am out and about, observing attentively. Because I become stressed by too much activity and noise, I would do best in a home with adults only. Bryn is very protective of me and comforts me when I am afraid. I like exploring, looking out the window, and I will approach people when I’m offered Churus! I need an adopter with loads of patience and a gentle manner. You must be willing to give me as much time as I need to let me be me. Allow me to become the Morgan I can be! Bryn and I are a bonded pair, and we must be adopted together. Building a relationship with each of us will take time, but good things come to those who wait! Purr.
Adoption fee $100 + microchip fee $30 + tax

Paws and Claws Humane Society (PCHS) is a non-profit, mostly volunteer organization that rescues and shelters homeless cats and dogs until they can be adopted into their “forever” homes. We want our clients to understand that adopting and animal is a lifetime responsibility and commitment to that animal.
All prospective adopters must show (at the time of adoption) a valid drivers license or other acceptable identification to verify their name, address, and age. Adopters must be 18 yrs of age. Children under the age of 12 years old need to be present at time of viewing shelter cats or dogs.
After submitting an application, there is generally a processing period of 1-3 days in order to complete all pre-adoption checks and paperwork before an adopter may take possession of the animal.
