My story

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

Mindy and her three siblings were found wtih their mom, Dandee, in an alley in Springfield when they were just two and a half weeks old. Needless to say, Dandee was struggling to keep them all alive. A resident in the area brought momma and babies to Paws Animal Shelter so they could be cared for. They went into foster care right away, so the kittens could be properly socialized and so Dandee would have the support she needed. Her foster mom described Mindy as follows: 'Mindy is SO sweet! She is a little shy at first, but once you get her playing, she is right in the game with everyone else! She is a sweet little girl who is just as fine with playing as she is with being made over. She loves a good game and a good snack!' All of the kittens are incredibly sweet and loving and would be wonderful additions to any family. Stop by the Kitty Cove (the kitten room where they live at Paws) and meet these darlings. You'll want to adopt at least two of them, so they'll have a playmate to keep them out of trouble!

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!
