Adorable and Adoptable Andrew

Just look at that smile.

This is our friend Andrew (also known as "Hobo," since he was found as a stray).  In case you're wondering if he's as sweet, snuggly and friendly as he looks, the answer is an unequivocal YES.  This gentle and easygoing mancat loves people and cats alike (not to mention HUGS), and he's quickly become a favorite of the shelter volunteers. :)

Andrew is about 4 years old, neutered, and up to date on all his vaccinations.  He has tested positive for the Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), but is currently asymptomatic.  It's very important to keep in mind that, "...FIV-positive cats can live normal lives both in quality and duration, (although) they do take special care in terms of monitoring them for signs of infection and they do have a tendency to have bad dental disease." (source: Best Friends Animal Society)

Andrew is waiting to dazzle you with his sparkling personality, and his smile (which is even cuter in person).  Come meet him today, and fall in love! :)

To see more pictures of Andrew, be sure to visit our friend and fellow volunteer Maggie's awesome blog, Sundays at the Shelter.

Happy Cinco de Mayo! :)

Happy Cinco de Mayo (or maybe we should say Cinco de MEOW-YO) from Moosey, Gracie and Zoe, and all of us here at Animal Shelter Volunteer Life!  Catnip Meow-garitas, anyone?

Sweet Mercedes

Beautiful Mercedes has been at PAWS for five years, making her one of the shelter's longest-term residents.

She's sweet and gentle, and loves other kitties, catnip and sunpuddles.

 

Now all this gorgeous house panther needs is a nice, quiet forever home, with a person to call her very own.

Mercedes is about 6 1/2 years old, spayed, up to date on all of her vaccinations, and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Merritt

Isn't our adoptable torbie pal, Merritt, gorgeous?

Merritt is about 4 years old, spayed, micro-chipped, and up to date on all her vaccinations.  This playful ladycat has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  She gets along with some other cats, and would probably do best in a quieter home without small children.

Easy Like Sunday - Roger

Gentle and handsome Roger is spending his day "relaxamicating."

From his head...

...to his toes

Have an easy Sunday, everybody. :)

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Olga

This is our pretty friend Olga.  She's about one year old.

Olga arrived at PAWS as a stray a few months ago.

We hope Olga's forever family finds her soon.  In the meantime, this gentle girl is getting lots of love and attention from all of her volunteer human pals.

 

Olga gets along well with other kitties, and would probably do best in a quieter home.  She is spayed, micro-chipped, up-to-date on her vaccinations, and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  Come meet her today! :)

Happy Easter!

All of us here at Animal Shelter Volunteer Life wish everyone a hippity, hoppity and HAPPY Easter!

Hugs and headbonks,

Moosey, Gracie, Zoe, Mom Tracey and Dad Kevin
