Tuxedo Tuesday - Opt to Adopt Sadie

Our gentle tuxedo friend Sadie is an honest-to-goodness lapcat, who enjoys snuggling with the shelter staff and volunteers (and we all love to indulge her!).  But as much as she likes all of us, what Sadie would love most would be to find a nice, quiet home with a family of her very own.

This pretty ladycat is about 11.5 years old, spayed, microchipped, and current on all of her vaccinations. She gets along with some other cats, and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Sadie is on a special diet because she has some skin allergies, but if you're okay with that, so is she.  She's waiting patiently at PAWS of Norwalk, CT. Come meet Sadie today! :) 

FURever Home Friday! :)

With Old Man Winter hanging around like a dinner guest who has overstayed his welcome, we thought this would be the perfect time to share some heartwarming (emphasis on WARM) news with you all. What better way to get all warm and fuzzy than by celebrating the most recent PAWS adoptions? So let's get on with the show! :)

Do you remember Buster, the gentle 14 year old ginger mancat loved so very much by all of the shelter volunteers?

 He found his very own happily ever after!

And what about senior Max, the water-loving kitty who had been waiting for years to be adopted?

He found his forever home, too!

And beautiful Lt. Uhura, Brian and Roger, and Gem?

 You guessed it ... their forever families finally found them as well. :)

Here's the full list of recent PAWS cat graduates (in alphabetical order):

Finally, here are three quick adoption updates to further warm your heart...

If the kitty in this picture looks familiar, it's because it's Max (see above), in his new home! On his first full day of his happily ever after, his new mommy sent this picture, and wrote: "Just wanted to send this pic of Max. He was less than pleased with me yesterday afternoon and evening but today we are buddies. :)" (Ed. note: Oh, he DOES look happy, doesn't he? Way to go, Maxie!)

From Nala's (formerly Bellini) family: "I just wanted to send you some pictures of Bellini aka Nala. She's an absolute sweetheart and her homecoming has been a major success! Thanks again for all your help in making this happen." (Ed. note: So cute! There's a whole lot of love going on in that picture!)

And this from Molly's Mommy: "I know I am probably sending too many pics, but I thought that this was too cute not to share... up on her hind legs, begging for the very last bit of cereal milk (I don't give her but a lick of the empty bowl--I know she shouldn't have too much milk). She has settled into our family so nicely. We love her!" (Note to Mom Carey: You could never ever send too many pictures of Miss Molly! :) )

Hugs and headbonks, and wishes for a warm and happy weekend!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Shadow :)

Do you remember when we featured handsome Sparky a couple of weeks ago?  Do you also recall that we said he has an equally handsome brother named Shadow?

Well ... here's Shadow! :)

As previously mentioned, these sweet and gentle brothers must be adopted together. They're neutered, microchipped and up to date on all of their vaccinations. They've also tested negative for FIV and FeLV.

Won't you please help Sparky and Shadow find their very own happily (together) ever after?

Happy Valentine's Day! :)

Can you feel the love?

'Cause we're sending it -- as well as a big dose of hugs and headbonks -- to friends and family near and far, and everywhere in between. :)

Happy Valentine's Day, everybody!

Moosey, Gracie, Zoe, Mom Tracey and Dad Kevin (meowmeowmans)

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Creamsicle

Oh hi, everybuddy!  My name is Creamsicle, and I'm one of the awesome adoptable cats waiting at the shelter to find my forever home.

 

I like hanging out with my human friends, but my most favorite thing to do is play!

Handsome Creamsicle would like to be your one and only pet.  He's not exactly a lap cat, but he really DOES enjoy the company of the PAWS volunteers. And he's got one of the loudest purrs we've ever heard! You can read more about Creamsicle here.  And you can meet him at PAWS!
