Goody's Selfies

Goody is a sweet, gentle kitty who’s so ready to find her forever home. She was found caring for her litter of kittens, but the people who took them in only kept the babies, and Goody was left behind (Ed. note: we'll keep our comments about those people G-rated, but let's just say we hope Santa leaves a lump of coal in their stockings). We can't even begin to understand why they didn't keep Goody. She's lovely --  extremely affectionate, snuggly, and full of quiet curiosity.

 

 

Not quite two years old, Goody has beautiful tabby markings with white spots, including on her face and on her adorable paws (look at her cute black toe beans!). She’s microchipped, vaccinated, spayed, and completely ready to find her true happily ever after. Come meet Goody at PAWS today, and fall in love!

(Almost) Wordless Solstice and Sun

These are our adorable and adoptable new friends, Solstice and Sun. 💖

Solstice

Sun

If you see some resemblance between these two, it's because beautiful, two-year-old Solstice is handsome one-year-old Sun's mom. They're both super sweet, snuggly, and gentle kitties who are waiting at PAWS to find their happily ever afters. You can read more about Solstice here, and more about Sun here.

Selfies by Jack

If you’re looking for a gentle, affectionate companion with a heart of gold, allow us to introduce Jack, who just may be the friendliest orange tabby you’ll ever meet.

 

At 15 years old, Jack is a distinguished senior with a lifetime of love to give. You may notice that one of his eyes looks a bit cloudy. At some point in his life, he had an injury or infection that left a scar on the cornea of his right eye. But don’t worry -- it doesn’t bother him one bit. Jack goes about his days as cheerful as can be.

 

Like many cats his age, Jack has a few age-related medical quirks. He was recently diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, but he’s a champ about taking his medication, and it’s very manageable. He also experiences some GI ups and downs, occasionally swinging between constipation and diarrhea, so a bit of monitoring (and sometimes a vet’s help) keeps him feeling his best.

 

Did we mention Jack is a lapcat? 💖

Mobility-wise, Jack doesn’t jump up or down anymore. Instead, he has a delightful habit of sitting politely at your feet, gazing up with his sweet, hopeful expression, patiently waiting to be lifted onto your lap. And oh, how he LOVES laps. Being snuggled is one of his pure joys.

In every way, Jack remains the happy, playful, gentle, snuggly boy he has always been. He’s microchipped, vaccinated, neutered, and waiting to bring warmth and companionship to his forever home. Come meet Jack at PAWS, and fall in love.

(Almost) Wordless George

*** UPDATE 12/3/25: George has been adopted! 💕 ***

Meet our handsome, affectionate, and adoptable friend George. 💖

 

Four-year-old George is one of the friendliest kitties we've ever met. With his sweet personality and adorably crackly meow, he's become a fast favorite among the PAWS volunteers and staff.

 

 You can learn more about George here.

 

Selfies by Mickey

Look who raised his paw to volunteer for this week's Sunday Selfies Blog Hop. It's our super handsome and super gentle friend Mickey!

 

 

This lovable 1½-year-old boy first caught the eye of a concerned neighbor who noticed him waiting outside night after night. Sadly, his (sorry excuse for a human) former owner had put him outdoors permanently -- and during that time, Mickey badly injured his paw. A trip to the vet revealed a fractured, infected toe that needed to be removed.

 

 

But Mickey proved just how resilient he is. He healed beautifully, and now he’s ready to find the loving home he has always deserved. Quiet and a touch shy at first, Mickey blossoms into a purring sweetheart once he feels safe. He enjoys gentle pets, gets along with friendly cats, and has the softest, sweetest presence.

 

Mickey is microchipped, vaccinated, neutered, and fully ready for his forever family. Come meet this affectionate dude at PAWS today, and fall in love.

(Almost) Wordless Athena

This absolutely beautiful kitty is our awesome and adoptable friend Athena.💖

Athena showed up one day on a family’s deck, peeking through their sliding glass door as if she knew she’d find kindness inside. A little shy at first, she quickly warmed up -- and once she did, her sweet personality pawsitively shined! She would’ve stayed there forever if not for a family allergy.

Just one year old, this gorgeous tortoiseshell is outgoing, communicative, and loves her human pals. She’s not a fan of other cats, though, and will need to be some lucky adopter's one and only princess. Athena is microchipped, vaccinated, spayed, and ready for her furever home. Could it be yours?

Come meet Athena at PAWS today!

Best Buddy Selfies: Bingo and Terra

If you’re searching for a ready-made duo of awesome and adorable young cats, look no further than Bingo and Terra. These best buddies met at PAWS and have been inseparable ever since.

 

 

Bingo, a one-year-old fluffy grey sweetheart, has already had quite the adventure. This gorgeous dude was found in the utility room of an apartment complex here in Connecticut. According to his microchip, his home was in New York City! His previous adopters shared that he "slipped out during a trash run," but after that initial call, they ghosted our staff. 😠 Luckily, Bingo’s gentle personality, love of pets, and playful spirit quickly won over everyone at the shelter -- especially his new pal, Terra.

 

Six-month-old Terra was a PAWS kitty before he was even born (via his mama, Thumbelina, who has since found her own happily ever after 💖). Terra is outgoing, sweet, and endlessly playful. He was adopted once by a first-time pet family, but through no fault of his own, was returned after just one month. Back at the shelter, he found comfort, confidence, and friendship in Bingo, and the two have been wrestling, chasing toys, and curling up together ever since.

Now these two best friends are ready for the next chapter -- together (they must be adopted together). Both boys are microchipped, vaccinated, neutered, and bursting with affection for their forever family. Bingo and Terra can’t wait to meet you!

Two hearts, looking for one forever home. Could it be yours?

(Almost) Wordless Booka

Booka may be new at PAWS, but she’s already winning hearts left and right. This beautiful black-and-white girl has quickly become a favorite among volunteers and staff, and it’s easy to see why.

Affectionate, outgoing, and wonderfully gentle, Booka leans in for hugs and melts into your arms. She loves being held, happily soaks up attention, and purrs like she’s known you forever. She also gets along well with other cats!

 

 

Booka, who is about 1 1/2 years old, comes fully ready for her next chapter: she’s spayed, microchipped, and current on all her vaccinations. Now all she needs is a family to adore her as much as she’ll adore them.

 

If you’re looking for a loving companion with a big heart and an even bigger cuddle quota, come meet Booka and fall in love!

Selfies by Nari

This is our sweet, beautiful, and adoptable housepanther friend Nari. Just look at her bright eyes and glorious midnight fur … isn’t she stunning?

 

As gorgeous as she is on the outside, Nari’s inner glow is just as bright. This sweet girl was found outside as a tiny kitten, then lovingly nursed back to health and cherished for four wonderful years. When her person could no longer give her the care she deserved, they made the difficult but loving choice to help her find a new, quiet home where she can flourish.

Four-year-old Nari is an affectionate, curious, snuggly sweetheart who loves people -- she happily offers hugs, gentle head bumps, and all the warm snuggles you could want. While she absolutely adores humans, she is pretty cautious around other cats. She previously lived with a not-so-nice feline roommate and was often kept separate, so her initial nervousness at PAWS makes perfect sense. In a nutshell: we're not sure yet how she feels about other kitties, but we know she loves people!

Nari is spayed, microchipped, current on her vaccinations, and ready to find her forever loving home. Could it be with you?

(Almost) Wordless Scotti

If you thought bobtails were only found on bunnies, think again -- because today’s spotlight is shining on our adorable and adoptable friend Scotti. Just look at this little sweetheart! 

 

Scotti’s story began when a kind-hearted human noticed this super friendly kitty visiting his yard every day for a meal. He assumed she must belong to someone, because she was so gentle and affectionate. As time went on, she kept returning, always grateful for a snack and a little attention. Then one day, she disappeared … only to return a few weeks later with four little kittens in tow!

 

When the good Samaritan opened his home, in walked Scotti and her babies.

 

 

This one-year-old beauty had a tail injury that required a little surgery, so now she sports the most adorable bobtail, which in all honesty just adds to her charm! Scotti loves people, enjoys the company of other cats, and would be wonderful in a home with children. She’s snuggly, extroverted, gentle, and would be the purrfect member of almost any family. Scotti is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, and ready to find her happily ever after. Come meet her at PAWS, and fall in love!
