(Almost) Wordless Tangerine

If you're looking for a nice mid-week dose of cute, you've definitely come to the right place. Check out our awesome and adoptable pal Tangerine!

This sweet girl was abandoned right in the parking lot at PAWS. Her former humans literally drove up while the shelter was open, dumped Tangerine, and drove away. To say this is a despicable thing to do is putting it nicely, but we will just leave it at that. Luckily, some staff and volunteers saw Tangerine before anything untoward happened, and brought her inside. We can tell you she is playful and affectionate, and loves humans and other nice kitties. She also happens to have a championship-caliber purr! Tangerine, who is about 6 months old, is spayed, current on her vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. She's so ready to find her real forever family, so come meet her today!

Selfies by Fortune & Tarot

Today's selfies are brought to you courtesy of handsome tabby mancats Tarot and Fortune. These guys were pretty shy when they first arrived at PAWS, so it makes our hearts happy to see them gaining in confidence and showing their sweet and loving purrsonalities.

Three in a row: (from bottom) Fortune, Tarot, and roommate Ouzo

Tarot and Fortune, who are about 1 1/2 years old, came to us after being found in an abandoned RV along with a bunch of other cats. (note: If this story sounds familiar to you, our friends Suzuki and Winnie came from the same trailer.) Both boys get along well with other cats and enjoy attention from their human friends. They are neutered, current on their vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. Fortune and Tarot are so ready to find their forever loving family. Could it be yours?

To see more photos of Tarot and Fortune, check out our friend and fellow PAWS volunteer Maggie's post at her awesome Sundays at the Shelter blog!

(Almost) Wordless Aura

We think our adorable and adoptable friend Aura is purrfectly named. She emanates a sweet and gentle aura that belies her loving heart. In short, Aura is beautiful inside and out!

Aura is about two years old, and came to PAWS after she was abandoned by her former humans. To put it nicely, we are glad she's here now, where she is safe and loved while she waits to find her true forever family. Aura is playful, adores her human pals here at the shelter, and gets along with other nice kitties. She is also spayed, current on her vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. All she needs now is a new BFF. Come meet Aura today, and fall in love!

Those eyes. When it comes to our beautiful friend Kailani, the eyes definitely have it. Here, see for yourself!

Kailani, who is only a little more than one year old, is a sweet and gentle young ladycat who found her way to PAWS while she was pregnant. She was the best mommy to her babies, and is now ready to find a loving forever home where she can be the baby of the family. Kailani really enjoys her human friends here, and gets along well with the other nice cats in her open room. She is spayed, current on her vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. Kailani is a true delight, and is sure to bring so much love and joy to whoever is lucky enough to adopt her. Could that be you?

(Almost) Wordless Softee

If ever there was a kitty whose personality matched her name, it would be our beautiful friend Softee. This little ladycat is soft, sweet, gentle, and an all around delight!

Believe it or not, Softee was born in a warehouse, where she lived until she came to PAWS. With her easygoing nature, she did okay in her former confines even with all the noise and activity. But she's all about being an indoor kitty now, and getting lots and lots of love and attention. Softee gets along well with other cats, and adores her human friends. She's about 3 years old, spayed, current on her vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. Softee is so ready to find her forever best friend. Could it be you?

Kiki's Selfies

From welcoming all visitors to her room to playing with great aplomb and climbing to the very top of the cat tree with the greatest of ease, our adorable and adoptable friend Kiki can do it all. Now, we can also add "extremely adept at taking selfies" to the long list of things that make her a Renaissance cat. See for yourself!

Kiki, who is about 2 1/2 years old, came to PAWS from a home that had way too many cats. The kitties she came in with have been adopted, and now Kiki is waiting to be discovered by her true forever family. She gets along with other gentle cats, and adores her human pals here at the shelter. Kiki is spayed, current on her vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. Come meet this suPURRstar today!

(Almost) Wordless Spartan

Housepanther alert! Housepanther alert! Just look at our awesome and adoptable buddy Spartan. Isn't he handsome?

One-year old Spartan came to PAWS after some nice people found him wandering around in a parking lot. We can't imagine who would just abandon this big, friendly, and lovable dude. He adores his human pals here at the shelter and loves getting attention and being pet. (Just in case you're wondering ... yes, his coat is as super plush as it looks!) Spartan isn't so crazy about other cats, so he'd do best as your one and only. But as we like to say in cases like this, that just means more quality time for Spartan and whoever is lucky enough to adopt him. He's neutered, current on his vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. What are you waiting for? Come meet your new best friend Spartan today!

Sweet Potato Selfies

Our beautiful and adoptable friend Sweet Potato really lives up to her name. We can definitely tell you that this petite kitty is as sweet as pie!

It's no joke to say that Sweet Potato has come a long way. In fact, she found her way to PAWS all the way from Tennessee! A veterinary student from our area was working in a clinic in Tennessee when she met Sweet Potato, who was brought there as a pregnant stray. The vet student couldn't bear to see SP return to a life outside, and brought her back to Connecticut to find her a loving forever home. She gets along well with other cats, and adores people. One year-old Sweet Potato is spayed, current on her vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV. All she needs now is a new best friend. Could it be you?

(Almost) Wordless Kittens!

File it under, "Wow, that really happened?" Sweet and super playful siblings Bo Peep, Hamm, and Jesse each took a break to pose just so in the PAWS Room 1 cat tree. We're pretty sure we couldn't get them to cooperate like this again, even if we had 100 tries. 😂

These cuties, who are about 3 months old, are just some of the many kittens waiting at the shelter to find their forever homes. All PAWS kittens must be adopted with another kitten. Wouldn't it be great if these babies can go to one lucky family? Come meet them today, and fall in love!
