Story
Toulouse is a beautiful big tom cat! He is four years old (born November 2020), and we adopted him through Paws Patrol as a kitten as part of a bonded pair. However, he and his sister are no longer bonded. He’s a large cat, but he’s a huge softie. He will happily sit on your lap, and he loves belly rubs and chin scratches. If you want a cuddly cat, he’s the best. He loves to play, and he’ll sleep just about anywhere—but he loves to snuggle under a blanket! He is a bit of a scaredy cat—he is terrified of trash bags and will run away when you take them out! Toulouse has a bit of a territorial streak, so he may not do well with other animals. He would do amazingly in a home with older children that could give him the attention and affection he needs.

Story
Poppy is a 6-year-old female short-haired cat. She loves to play with toys, soft blankets, and being scratched behind the ears. She likes to lay on your legs on cold nights and is usually a very calm cat. She was trained to pee in the toilet, but we had to close the lid due to the other cat drinking out of the toilet. She is very soft and clean and is very humorous about funny smells to her. It is hard parting ways with her, but she needs to find a home where she is the center of attention as she can be jealous of other pets.

Story
Astrid is a super sweet and loving cat. She loves being brushed and pet and given lots of attention. She really enjoys catnip, and she likes to roll around in dirt when able to. She can use a cat door and loves a catio. Very people friendly and her favorite type of people are calm and relaxed children. She doesn't mind dogs and is outgoing and curious after a brief warm up period. Raven is a shy girly and she takes a bit longer to warm up. She prefers to be ignored completely until she warms up to people. Raven enjoys cat nip toys and is super gental. If she does meow it's very quiet. We are rehoming her and her sister because our sons cat has recently been diagnosed with some medical issues that has put us in a situation of choosing whats best for our animals. We unfortunately decided that Astrid and her sister who do the best if rehomed.

Story
Meet Leopold – The Striped Sweetheart Ready for the Good Life!  With my bold tiger stripes it’s no surprise I was named Leopold—I may not be a leopard, but I sure have the fierce and handsome look of one! But don’t let my wild appearance fool you—I'm all about cozy cuddles and indoor luxury. I was born in the desert and lived in a well-cared-for cat colony in Sonoita, where the amazing folks at Paws Patrol were helping our human caretaker trap, neuter, and return my feline family to keep us safe. When they trapped me, I had a little secret to share… this whole “outdoor desert life” is way overrated! Hot sand, rough nights, and no fluffy beds? No, thank you! The moment I realized there were soft blankets, endless food, and loving humans inside, I knew I was meant for the indoor kitty life.  What Makes Me Special:I’m a total people cat—I love attention, head scratches, and cozying up with my favorite humans. Snuggles? Yes, please! So what do you say? Come meet me and see if we’re the perfect match! Trust me—the great indoors is where it’s at!  ##2302551##

Story
I’m a sweet orange boy who loves belly rubs. I’m quick to purr and make lots of biscuits for you. My brother Oscar and I were living outside in Nogales in well-cared-for cat colony until the nice folks from Paws Patrol decided we deserved a better life. I’m still a little shy and can spook easily, but I like people! With the right human family, myself and my brother Oscar, we will be an awesome addition to your home! My foster mom plays with us every day, and we are so happy to be out of the desert. My handsome brother is a bit more introverted than I am, but his good looks make up for it. It’s important that we stay together because together we find our kitty mojo! All we need is a little more time, patience, and lots of love. Please fill out an adoption application so that you can come meet us! ##2287198##
