My story

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

Joleen and her four siblings were found with their momma, Aurora, in Mechanicsburg when the kittens were very young. Momma and babies were brought to Paws Animal Shelter, and they went into foster care. They're back at the shelter now, and they have been weaned. They're having a blast in one of our free roaming kitten rooms, playing with each other and their new kitten friends. They also like looking out the window at all the birds visiting the feeders. As with all of our kittens who have been fostered, they're super sweet, loving and playful, and would be wonderful additions to any family.

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!
