Some happy tails (er, tales) from some of our alumni and their families:

Patches’ new name is Calliope and she is doing well, I think. She seems comfortable in her new home and has a voracious appetite and very definite preferences. She will only eat Weruva and Halo Spots Stew brand cat foods. She is still somewhat skittish yet slowly but surely she is becoming more affectionate. We still do everything on her terms. On Saturday night she slept at the end of my bed for the first time ever AND I heard her PURR for the very first time. I was surprised and very happy.

Miffy (aka Tinkerbelle) is so purrfect! She’s given us so much joy and we believe she’s happy with us too. Here’s a photo of her enjoying a catnap with me. I found her snuggled between my legs.

Brandon has adapted perfectly to his new home. He gets along great with our other cat, and is really starting to get completely comfortable in his new surroundings. My wife and I are extremely happy with our two cats that we adopted from PAWS.

  

Thanks for reading, and sharing in our adoption celebration.  Have a great weekend!

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Max

Despite what the sign behind him says, all sweet and gentle Max really needs to be happy is a forever home with warm laps and lots of petting (and faucets from which he can drink).

Handsome Max is friendly, and likes almost everyone he meets.  He's good with other cats, and even likes dogs!  Maxie is about 12 years old, neutered, up to date on all of his vaccinations, and micro-chipped.  He has tested negative for FeLV and FIV.  Come meet Max today!

Easy Like Sunday - Julia

Here's sweet, petite and adoptable Julia, testing out two of the beds in PAWS Cat Room 5. 

First up: some quality time in this comfy cozy miniature twin bed... 

Next: a stint in this nicely apportioned window perch... 

No matter which bed she chooses, Julia looks ready to settle in for a nice and relaxing Sunday.  Here's hoping your day is as easy as hers! :)

Julia is about 9 years old, and sweet as can be.  She is spayed, micro-chipped, and current on all of her vaccinations.  She has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  Now all she needs is a happily ever after.

Tuxie Tuesday: Opt to Adopt

This is our friend Liam. Isn't he gorgeous?  Truth be told, he reminds us a lot of our dear, sweet Angel Sammy. :)

When Liam was found as a stray, his tail was so badly dislocated that it had to be amputated.  He's all healed up now, and doing just fine sans tail.  What's most remarkable about Liam is his sweet and gentle nature ... we're all but certain that he had his own humans at one time.  He loves being pet, gets along well with other kitties, and would love a home where snuggles and couch time reign supreme.  Liam is about 8 years old, neutered, micro-chipped and current on all of his vaccines.  He has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  Liam is waiting at PAWS, in Norwalk, CT, to meet his new best friend.  Is that you?

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Sherwood

Our pal Sherwood would LOVE to meet you.  We're pretty sure about this, because this handsome and sweet mancat loves EVERYONE he meets.

Sadly, Sherwood finds himself back at the shelter after being adopted a couple of years ago, because "...someone with allergies moved into his house."  We don't think that's fair, but the volunteers and staff at PAWS will be sure to give Sherwood lots of love and attention while he waits for his REAL forever home.

Gentle Sherwood also enjoys being pet, helping his volunteer pals read the newspaper, and playing. And he has the cutest high-pitched meow ever. 

He's about 2 1/2 years old, micro-chipped, neutered and up-to-date on all of his vaccinations. He has tested negative for FIV and FeLV.  Come meet Sherwood today.  You'll be glad you did (and so will he)! :)
