Selfies by Honey Bunch

With a name like Honey Bunch, you'd probably think this gorgeous kitty is a genuine sweetheart. And you know what? You'd be absolutely correct!

Honey Bunch was one of several cats and dogs who were heartbreakingly left behind when their former people were evicted. We're told that PAWS already helped one of her former feline housemates find a new home. Now it’s Honey Bunch’s turn.

At just one year old, Honey Bunch is affectionate, playful, gentle, and wonderfully snuggly. She’s the kind of cat who leans right into you, perfectly content to soak up pets and attention. As a proof point, she happily curled up against us before posing for her photos. 💖 Honey Bunch is microchipped, vaccinated, spayed, and completely ready for her forever home. All she’s missing is a someone to love her as much as she loves them. Come meet Honey Bunch today!

Happy MEW Year!

Just as we seem to be every year, we're gobsmacked that it's already time to break out the new calendars.

 

Here are Ava and Target wishing everybuddy an excellent 2026.

 

 Happy MEW Year! Here's hoping the coming year will be full of love, peace, and happiness. We know that will most certainly be the case for the 350 PAWS kitties who found their happily ever afters in 2025. If you follow our blog, chances are you'll recognize some of the faces in this collage of 79 (note: there are a couple of dupes -- can you spot them?) of our friends who are celebrating the New Year in their forever homes!

 

And what better time than now to share a few happy tales? Here are a few adoption updates from 2025, courtesy of fellow PAWS volunteer Beth Siegelbaum's wonderful and joy-inducing "Monthly Meow" newsletter for staff and volunteers. (Click on each image to enlarge.)

Congratulations to the PAWS Class of 2025 and their forever families! We wish all of them, and all of YOU, a year filled with happiness, good health, and love.

HAPPY MEW YEAR!

Happy Gotcha Day, Ava!

Happy Gotcha Day Weekend to our beautiful PAWS graduate Ava. It's so hard to believe it's already been eight years since she first came home with us!

 

Happy Gotcha Day, sweet girl. We love you to the moon and back, and are thankful that your happily ever after is here with us.

Selfies by Baker (the Biscuit Maker)

Meet Baker Baker Biscuit Maker, a cat who has a name as charming as himself!

 

 

This handsome mancat was found wandering the streets, and it was immediately clear that he hadn’t always been a stray. Baker is exceptionally friendly -- the kind of cat who seems to believe every human was put on this earth specifically to love him. He proves that by constantly “making biscuits,” kneading away with pure joy and enthusiasm (hence his delightfully descriptive name).

 

When we spent time with Baker this weekend, he wasted no time hopping into our laps and settling in like he’d always belonged there. He’s extroverted, affectionate, gentle, and incredibly snuggly -- a total lap-cat package. While we’re still learning how he feels about other cats, we haven’t seen any negative interactions so far, even through cage bars.

Baker Baker Biscuit Maker is 4 years old, microchipped, neutered, and current on all his vaccinations. If you’re looking for a loving companion who will happily curl up with you and knead his way into your heart, Baker may be your perfect match. Come meet him at PAWS today!

(Almost) Wordless Creampuff and Blaze

If you're looking to sweeten up the middle of your week, you've definitely come to the right place. Check out sweet-as-can-be siblings Creampuff and Blaze!

 

Creampuff

Blaze

Yes, they really are as adorable as they look (even more so in purrson)! Their two litter mates were adopted last weekend, and now Creampuff and Blaze (who must be adopted together) are waiting at PAWS to be discovered by their forever family. Could it be yours?

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!
