My story

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

Samantha was found as a stray in Urbana with her SEVEN kittens! She was certainly not able to keep everyone alive by herself, so she was brought to Paws Animal Shelter. Even at the shelter she was overwhelmed by so many babies, and shes happy theyre weaned now. She was a good momma, but that was just too many kittens for her to feed and care for!

She's spayed now (Yay, she says - no more babies!!)

and is in one of the adult cat rooms. She didn't interact much with the other adults in the room at first, as she really did seem tired. She likes to get attention from people, and she enjoys being brushed and playing. She really wants her own home where she can enjoy spa treatment and pampering. She's ready to be adopted, so stop by and meet this sweet young kitty!

More about this shelter

The Champaign County Humane Association, Inc. (CCHA) was founded in 1977, initially relying solely on fosters to care for stray animals. In 1991 they opened Paws Animal Shelter in Champaign County, a rural county with a total population of about 39,000. In 2018 the CCHA decided to transition Paws Animal Shelter to a cat-only facility, as there is a desperate need in our area for additional shelter spaces for cats and kittens.

Thanks to a generous donation we were able to expand our shelter in 2021, which has enabled us to rescue even more cats and kittens. While this is obviously a positive development, it has definitely increased our operating costs, as so many cats and kittens that we take in have not been spayed or neutered. In addition, many cats that are surrendered to us have not been in homes with the financial resources to properly care for them, so we frequently have to pay for dentals and other expensive procedures. We are passionate about saving as many cats and kittens as possible, and they have a home with us until we find a forever home for them!
