Story
Precious is a gorgeous white and gray female domestic short hair cat. and she has beautiful amber eyes. She was owner surrendered because her family could no longer take care of her. They asked PAWS to take her, and she continues to search for a family who will love her and let her live with them forever. She can be a bit finicky at times so she is not recommended for a home with children. She does ok with other cats as long as they allow er to be the queen but she does not do well with dogs. She is always the first one to meet new folks who come in the door and does like to be loved on as long as it is on her terms. She has gotten more comfortable with being a lap cat and she would love to come live with you! Her approximate birthday is 09/21/2016.

Story
Manning was brought in after a young woman witnessed him being thrown from a car. Miraculously, he was not injured - only scared and confused by the cruelty. He was just a tiny helpless baby who deserved so much better than what humans had shown him up to that point. But thanks to the kindness of this stranger, he was brought to PAWS where he could be loved and cared for until he was old enough to be neutered. It just so happened that Liberty and her litter had just arrived and Manning soon joined them and became the sixth child! He fit right in and has been the older bubby ever since! All of the calico sisters have long since been adopted while Manning waits for his forever family to come. He is a sweet, loving young cat who is funny, smart and so very playful. He will bring many years of love to some lucky person or family! If interested, please go to pawspaws.org and complete the application. Once approved, we will set up a meet and greet to see if you are a fit for him. His adoption fee is $75.

Story
Logan was a two week old kitten when he first came to PAWS. His mother and five kittens were found trying to survive in an alley. They were all pitifully malnourished and covered in fleas but he was especially tiny and almost lifeless. Poor mamma didn't have the strength to clean them or herself. It is a miracle that they even survived. But they fought so hard to live and now they are thriving! It took two weeks of constant care for him to begin to show much energy or strength and he stayed so small. But slowly he began to gain ground and, although he is still the smallest of the litter, he is strong and healthy. He loves to be cuddled and petted and will generally fall asleep in your hands! He is sweet and loving but does take a little time to warm up to new folks. He currently weighs just under three pounds and was born 03/22/2023. (Based on the date he opened his eyes). His adoption fee is $100. He is spayed and microchipped. He will not be old enough for his rabies shot until 07/23/2023. If you would like to meet him, please go to pawspaws.org to complete the PAWS application. Please note: the Petfinder Inquiry is not the PAWS application. Once we have reviewed and approved your application, we will contact you to set up a meet and greet. Thanks so much for your interest in this precious baby!

Story
Misty is a darling kitty, blind in one eye but doesn't look it. When a kitten, she had, according to the vet, congestive heart failure, causing serious respiratory problems. Vet gave her a cortisone shot; he said she would keep needing more shots, and that the condition would nonetheless eventually be fatal. But her "brother" Dart stepped in and parented and cuddled her, sleeping with her. Now she is the most athletic of the cats, leaping 10 feet from the microwave to the fridge. She'll stand and look at me for hours, fading into the background, absorbed in her relationship with me. I'll stand there as if looking in a mirror, then we'll turn and be side by side.
