Story
Macy was left in a pet carrier at the City Pound and her previous owner never came forward to explain her situation. She was terrified and behaved violently for the first couple of weeks. For another month, she would solicit attention but then hiss and swat at us. As time went on, Macy began to relax and accept head pets from the volunteers. Now, 8 months later she is showing us her playful side and is very friendly. We have discovered that Macy doesn't like other cats or dogs. We assume she was the only pet in her previous home. Macy is still a little timid and goes back to her "safe spot" whenever she feels overwhelmed. Her ideal home will be calm, quiet and routine. At her recent vet visit she was well mannered but scared and hid her face in the Director's arms. Macy is clean in her cage and uses her litterbox always. She is front declawed and approximately 3 years old. In the right home, one with patience and kindness, Macy will flourish and make someone a really great companion. Please email mdowney@iowatelecom.net for an adoption application.

Story
Meet Kevin, a domestic short hair cat born approximately 2/2020. He's a shy guy, but is very active and loves to give kisses. He's quite friendly but likes to approach his people on his own terms and only once he's observed you for a while to know if you're safe or not. He prefers to come to his person for pets, so he needs someone whose patient and lets him make the choice for attention and affection. He needs a home that makes him feel safe and that keeps him inside. He also knows how to use the litter box. If Kevin is your guy, apply for him today!  The suggested adoption donation for Kevin is $65. Muddy Paws is a 501c3 non-profit organization meaning that part of your donation MAY be TAX DEDUCTIBLE. We are a 100% volunteer rescue committed to giving animals a second chance at life. All donations go toward that mission. Adoption fees are the primary source of funding for the cost of veterinary care for our animals. In 2021 alone, we provided animal Healthcare totaling over $307,000 covered mainly through adoption fees. Information about the adoption process: All adoptions require a completed ADOPTION APPLICATION. Once your application has completed our prescreen steps, we will put you in touch with the animal’s foster to see if you and the pet are a good match. If so, we will arrange a meeting for you and the animal. The adoptions for all of our animals will take place in the Omaha, NE area and must be done by the adoptive family in person. We do not ship or deliver. Please Note: We are a RESCUE, which is different from a shelter. We conduct veterinary and personal reference checks, and a Home Visit (Virtual in some cases) during the application approval process. We always select the right applicant for each animal, based on the animal’s needs. If you and the animal are not a good match, we will help you select another animal, or we will keep your approved application on file for 6 months.

Story
Meet Lucky, a Domestic Shorthair born approximately 4/2019. Lucky is a typical young cat who loves attention, regularly climbing and zooming around. He's very vocal and friendly and curious about new people. He likes to be close and pet, but doesn't love being held. He loves being brushed and plays with his toys often. Lucky is a very curious little guy, so it may be best to keep things out of reach, especially shoes. He also has accidents outside of his litter box from time to time, so he'll need a lot of patience and possibly re-training. Lucky wants to give you all of his attention, so give him a chance today! The suggested adoption donation for Lucky is $65, which includes a lifetime of free relationship-based training for any behavioral problems (not obedience training).

Story
My name is Selena!  I am a Calico Domestic Medium Hair born 05/6/2021.  I am good with kiddos and select cats alike, though I am unsure about our canine friends.  I like to hang out with my people during the day and night if you let me!  Sometimes I get a little nervous if I can't find you or hang out in the same room. I like to play and chase the other cats in my hoome. Scratching posts are one of my favorite things!  After playing, it's nap time and if you're lucky, I might even curl up with you on the couch!  I am about to head to our foster home and will be sure to share more soon! The suggested adoption donation for Selena is $65. We are a 501c3 organization which means that your donation may be TAX DEDUCTIBLE.
