She was adopted in July 2024, but returned in November 2024 due to her and the resident cat not getting along.*Doodle has had perfect litterbox habits since April 2024.Known with:•Cats: ok, is the dominant cat. Previously lived with 2 male cats who were too active for her. Previously lived with 13yr female who didn`t like her.•Dogs: previously lived with 2 yr old Husky & 6 yr old Basset hound. •Kids: if any, older & calm best. Previously lived with 1.5 yr old and 3 yr old and hid from them.Personality: Doodle thrives in calm settings where she can come out for cheek rubs, enjoy a tube of Churu, and bat at wand toys at her own pace. She is shy initially and will hide in small spaces like under beds or in boxes. She loves cat trees and will make herself right at home. You`ll know when she starts warming up because she will poke her head out and greet you with a little meow and loud purrs.***Doodle would do best in a quiet household with either no other pets/children, or respectful & older ones.Doodle`s future home should be aware that she will likely need several months to adjust and interactions will need to be at her own pace.

Intake Reason: returned after 3 weeks, not adjusting to home for family`s time frame. Initially was surrendered due to owner having to move and being unable to take her with.Known with: ·Cats: Ok - previously lived with sister. Her first home reported that the cat`s got along well, and the second home reported some friction between the cats. May do ok with another cat after time to adjust. ·Dogs: Unknown - If there are any dogs in home, they should be calm & respectful. No dogs may be best. ·Kids: Not good - Hides from young kids. A home with kids over 12 yrs is best.My adoption fee has been generously sponsored by a member of the community! Now all I need is you!Personality: Luna is a little more reserved in nature and will take a longer time to adjust into her new environment. She is on the calmer side but has a playful streak if you give her come crumpled paper or a wand toy. She is a bit of a picky eater until you find what she likes. At WCHS she enjoys her diet of kibble with a daily tablespoon of canned food.

Intake Reason: Surrendered because he wasn`t getting along with the other cat.Known with: ·Cats: not good - pounced on 15 yr old spayed female in previous home. This behavior could have been due to Benny not being neutered and him being a younger, high energy cat. He may do ok with another cat of a similar activity level or a tolerant cat. ·Dogs: Unknown ·Kids: UnknownPersonality: Benny is the whole package! He`s affectionate, active, and playful. He would thrive in a home that will provide him with regular enrichment to keep his intelligent mind busy. While he is an active and independent guy, he has his calmer moments where he likes to sleep on his owner`s chest.*In his previous home, Benny did have a couple instances where he didn`t use the litterbox properly. WCHS believes this was due to him not being neutered. Since being at WCHS he`s had great litterbox habits.*

Intake Reason: Too Many Animals Known with: ·Cats: Good ·Dogs: Unknown ·Kids: UnknownCute and playful, kittens are bound to bring life to any home! These high energy felines are great additions to families with time to dedicate to playing and helping the kittens learn and grow. Having another young cat or kitten as a playmate for each other is also a good way to keep them active without having to give them your constant attention. Kittens play hard and sleep hard, oftentimes to extremes. Mischief runs through every kitten`s veins, which can sometimes be overwhelming. Although they always look adorable and cuddly, please remember that tomfoolery and high energy are just around the corner.

This is sweet Sahara! I found her at a vacant farmhouse. She was very obviously left behind. She was starving, extremely skinny, and followed me, begging for food. I could not bear to leave her, so I scooped her up in the hopes of finding her a good home. Sahara is a very good girl, uses the litter box perfectly, lets me trim her nails every 2 weeks, eats well and is happy and healthy. She is very smart and very playful. She has the cutest language and will chat with you. This special girl needs a great home! She's only still available because this website keeps deactivating her profile.

Willy is a lapcat. Loves to be pet and snuggled. He can be shy at first or with certain people. He tolerates my toddler petting him as long as I cue my son to be gentle. I feel that he isn't getting the attention he needs as I work from home full time while also caring for my toddler. On top of this, we are moving in with my dad who is allergic. So sadly I'm unable to accomodate him. Looking for a new and loving forever home for this fellla. I will be including any litter I have, XL litter box, food/treats and cat stand.

Peter is a great cat. Friendly, well behaved, independent but also likes affection. Due to unforeseen circumstances and needing to move in with family, we need to rehome our 2 cats. We are looking to foster Peter and permanently rehome our other cat as he hasn’t adjusted well since having a baby. We’d be looking at having Peter back once we’re in our own place. If possible, we’d like to keep these two together to minimize stress and separation anxiety as much as possible. But we also understand if this isn’t feasible. Whether you’re interested in temporarily looking after Peter, or including the other cat permanently, feel free to reach out with questions!

Hi, I'm Cloudy, a 2-year old tabby.  I recently volunteered to make the move from a shelter in another part of the state to make room for another kitty there.  I'm happy to be here at HAWS receiving great care, but I'd really like to be in a home again ... especially for the holidays!  I am sweet and friendly.  I like to greet new people at my front door and I'll gladly take any head rubs you want to give me until we get to go in a meeting room to get know each other better ... and then I'll take back rubs too!  Please come meet me today.

Hi, I'm Herbert and I was found outside and brought to HAWS for safety.  I'm liking the staff and volunteers but I'd really like to be back in a home again.  When you come to meet me, I will meet you at my front door with a big hello.  And if you walk by me, I will tell you to come back!  Take me to a meeting room and let's see what else I have to say (or not).  Now that I got your attention, maybe I'll just want to chill with you and have you pet me.  Please come meet me today.

*Cody is available for adoption from his foster home. If you may be interested in adopting him, please contact the shelter at (262) 677-4388 and ask for Kelly.*Intake Reason: surrendered due to litterbox issues which have since resolved.Known with:• Cats: Best with tolerant cats. Previously lived with several cats and was a bit of a bully. Lives with a 2yr male, 9yr male, and 16yr female in his foster home and does well. He mostly ignores them but does play with them on occasion by running around.• Dogs: Good. Previously lived with a senior large breed and did well. Lives with 9yr Papillon in his foster home and does well. He rubbed up against her and tried laying down next to her. He did play with a visiting puppy.• Kids: Best with respectful children. Lives with 4yr full time in foster and 2 & 3 year olds on the weekends. He walks away when he`s ready to be left alone.Personality: Cody is full of life, affection, and a love for laps to lay on. He is a Bengal, which is a breed known for being talkative, confident, intelligent, and social. They are best suited for homes that can manage their high activity level and chatty nature with regular enrichment.Cody will tell you all about his day, when he wants to go outside on his harness, when he is hungry, when he wants attention, and will get louder if ignored. He loves to explore the world and can often be found staring out a window.Cody quickly figured out that he prefers cardboard to scratch at rather than furniture. His new home should have plenty of cardboard scratchers for him to use. He is a smart guy who figured out how to train his humans to avoid nail trims and being picked up when he doesn`t want to. If you want to trim his nails or pick him up, you must get him to trust you first. Lots of love and repeated short bouts of the activity can help him learn that he can trust you.Cody is a true lap cat once he has chosen a person. Fair warning, he does like to lay on his person for nighttime snuggles when they`re trying to sleep.***Cody is on a prescription diet that has duck as the protein. He should remain on this food (or at least a chicken-free food). He does not like wet food or most human food, and is a grazer who prefers to eat small portions throughout the day.*****WCHS`s vet believes that Cody has a sensitive stomach and that is why he was having litterbox issues (defecating outside the
