Selfies by Garfield

This week’s sefies are brought to you courtesy of our very handsome, very sweet orange tabby pal Garfield. Once you see his photos and read his story, we know you'll love him just as much as we all do!

Such a sweet boy. Just look at those big cheeks!

Garfield is about 2 years old, and his journey to the shelter began with a tough twist. When his person moved away, Garfield was left behind (outside 😡) to fend for himself. For a while, this gentle dude did his best to carry on, and was often spotted sunbathing on a neighbor’s patio. That neighbor soon noticed that Garfield wasn’t looking quite like himself anymore, and after confirming that he’d truly been abandoned, she reached out to PAWS for help. An intake date was scheduled, and help was on the way.

Garfield was a bit unsure about all the changes afoot, and went missing for a bit. Lo and behold, he reappeared during a snowstorm, when he surprised everyone by going right into the carrier. It was as though he knew it was finally time to be safe again.

Garfield is a true lap cat!

Now settled into an open, cageless room with a few other friendly boy cats, Garfield is doing fantastically. When we visited him this weekend, he wasted no time climbing straight into my lap, purring contentedly. Moments later, he curled up and fell fast asleep - proof positive that he is a true lap cat in every sense of the word.

He fell asleep in my lap for so long that my legs fell asleep!

Garfield also loves chin scritches and having his head cradled

 

Garfield is affectionate, communicative, friendly, gentle, and wonderfully snuggly. He’s microchipped, vaccinated, and neutered, and more than ready to be discovered by his forever family. Come meet Garfield today, and fall in love! 💖

"More lap time, please!"

(Almost) Wordless Sisters

Our new friends deLulu and Kali Ma are as sweet as they come. These beautiful sisters were adopted as kittens from a shelter, but sadly their person now has dementia and can no longer care for them. We are thankful deLulu and Kali Ma are safe and being cared for at PAWS while they wait for their new forever home.

Easy Like Sunday Selfies - Ava and Target

With the extremely cold weather that's gripping so much of the nation, our own sweet PAWS graduates Ava and Target remind everyone to stay safe and warm. As you can see, these two cuties also happen to be big believers in the power of napping. Happy Sunday, everybody! 💖

(Almost) Wordless Eve

Check out the peepers on our sweet and adoptable friend Eve. With this pretty little kitty, the eyes definitely have it!

Eve, who is about four years old, came to PAWS when her human lost their job and could no longer care for her. She's so gentle and affectionate that we know she comes from a home where she was dearly loved.

Eve is spayed, microchipped, and current on her vaccinations. Now all she needs is a happily ever after. Could it be with you?

Selfies by Parsley

This is our new friend Parsley. This gorgeous calico girl was found tucked away under a porch during a snowstorm, seeking shelter after the neighbors she likely belonged to had just moved out.💔 Thankfully, Parsley is now safe and loved at PAWS, where her sweet personality is warming all of our hearts. Look at her posing like a supermeowdel!

Parsley is about one year old and has quickly made herself a favorite among her the volunteers and staff. She’s outgoing, gentle, and playful, always happy to soak up attention. While she hasn’t yet shared an open room with other cats, she doesn’t seem fazed by her feline neighbors and seems to take everything in stride.

She’s spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, and so ready to find her true forever family. Come meet Parsley today, and fall in love.

(Almost) Wordless Nemo

Check out our adorable and adoptable friend Nemo! This sweet young tuxedo ladycat was originally picked up as part of a TNR program, but it didn’t take long for everyone to realize she’s as friendly as can be.

 

Nemo was a little shy when she arrived at the shelter, but she's figured out pretty quickly that the humans here are great sources of love and happiness (and maybe a treat or two). Once she knows you, she warms up quickly, and is the perfect mix of playfulness and snuggly affection!

While she hasn’t yet been tried in a cage-free environment, Nemo has been calm and polite around the other cats in Room C2, showing no signs of stress or negativity. She’s spayed, microchipped, and current on her vaccinations. Now all she needs is a new best friend. Could it be you? Come meet Nemo at PAWS, and fall in love!

Selfies by Indi

This is our new friend Indi, who is beautiful both inside and out.

This stunning medium-haired tortie wound up at PAWS after her human suddenly became unhoused and, heartbreakingly, could no longer care for her. 💔 We're sure this is all quite confusing for sweet Indi, who just two months earlier had been adopted from a local municipal animal control facility. Through it all, though, Indi has remained affectionate, trusting, and outgoing.

Three-year-old Indi is a true blend of playful and gentle. She adores her human pals here at the shelter. In her previous home, she lived comfortably with a large dog, and since arriving at PAWS she’s done well with the cats she’s met. All this to say we think she could make a great addition to almost any family!

Indi is spayed, microchipped, and current on her vaccinations. She's so ready to find her happily ever after. Could it be with you?

(Almost) Wordless Ginger Junior

There's something about an orange cat that makes people smile. So who better than our lovable, handsome, and adoptable pal Ginger Junior to brighten your day?

 

He's even sweeter than he looks in these photos! Ginger Junior is neutered, microchipped, current on his vaccinations, and available for adoption at PAWS. 

 

Selfies by Vince

We asked the shelter cats who wanted to pose for this week's selfies, and look who volunteered. It's our handsome and super awesome new buddy, Vince!

 

Vince came to PAWS after being found as a friendly stray, lovingly cared for by a community member who had been feeding him for months. When a spot finally opened up at the shelter, in came Vince. We're so glad he's here! We spent some time hanging out with him this weekend and it's clear that he adores people. Pets, attention, affection -- Vince is all in.

 

 

This two-year-old mancat is affectionate and wonderfully gentle. He's currently rooming with fellow good guys Oliver Twist and Toby Crackit (who we recently featured), proving he gets along well with other nice cats.

 

Vince is microchipped, neutered, and up to date on his vaccinations, so he’s all ready to find his forever home. Come meet him today, and fall in love!

Toby and Oliver

These handsome guys came to PAWS after their person got sick and could no longer care for them. They are so sweet and affectionate that we have no doubt they were incredibly loved in their former home. Toby and Oliver are microchipped, current on their vaccinations, and neutered. They are so ready to find their new happily ever after together (they must go as a pair) ... come meet them today! 💖         

 

Selfies by Goose

Meet Goose, an adorably handsome 2-year-old mancat with a heart of gold!

Goose was rescued after being tossed from a car in a McDonald’s parking lot. It’s impossible to understand how anyone could abandon an animal like that, especially one as incredibly sweet and gentle as Goose. Despite what he’s been through, he has nothing but love to give.

Goose absolutely adores people and happily soaks up pets, sweet talk, and attention. He’s affectionate, calm, and gets along well with other friendly cats. Spending time with him is such a treat (we had a great time with him this weekend!). He leans right into love like he was born for it!

This deserving boy is microchipped, vaccinated, and neutered, and more than ready to find his true happily ever after. If you’re looking for a loving companion who will cherish you endlessly, Goose might just be your perfect match. Come meet him at PAWS today!
