(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Zatz

Meet our new friend, Zatz. Isn't she beautiful? 

Zatz is still pretty new at PAWS, so she's just starting to come out of her shell. And we're still just getting to know her personality.

Her intake card says that she "can be feisty," but we wonder if that behavior is just part of being in such an unfamiliar place. Because we've also noticed that she can be playful, sweet and engaging. 

Zatz is about 8 years old, and would probably do best in a home without children or other pets. We're pretty sure she'll blossom once she's in a stable and loving home. Zatz is spayed, micro-chipped and current on her vaccinations. She has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Now all she needs is a forever home. Is it yours?

Wishing meowmeowmans a VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Hi! Mom Tracey here, hijacking today's post. Furkids Gracie and Zoe, and I, would like to wish Kevin (aka meowmeowmans) a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!  Many moons (aka years) ago, on this day, a very kind and caring person was born into this world. We are so excited to celebrate this special birthday weekend with him, and we're extremely blessed to have so many animal-loving friends to share in it.

So, we'd like you all to spread a little extra kindness this weekend in honor
of this super guy's birthday.

We love you!

Tracey (aka mrs meowmeowmans), Gracie and Zoe

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Hanging with Lucy

Here's our beautiful and adoptable housepanther pal, Lucy, hanging out on (and off of) the well-loved Room One cat tree. 

Lucy's been living at PAWS for one year, while she waits to find her forever home. She's a cautious ladycat, but is fine with staff and volunteers she knows well. We know she'll blossom in a quiet and patient home. Lucy is about 9 years old, spayed, micro-chipped, and current on her vaccinations. She has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. Now all she needs is a hero to rescue her. Is it you?

A Special Sunday Selfie - Angel Moosey

"The song is ended, but the melody lingers on…" – Irving Berlin

Never forgotten. Always loved.

It's been one year since we had to say our sad goodbyes to our beloved Moosey.

This beautiful portrait of Moosey was painted by Nellie the Cat's mom, Barb.

We love and miss you so much, sweet boy. But we know we will see you again, one fine day. Wait for us, okay?

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Pumpkin

This is our sweet, gentle and adoptable friend, Pumpkin. If she looks familiar to those of you who are familiar with our blog, it's because she has been waiting at PAWS for quite some time for her forever home.

It makes us sad that wonderful cats like Pumpkin get overlooked, simply because they're a little more reserved and shy around people they don't know well.

We wish potential adopters could see what we see whenever we spend time with Pumpkin - an awesome kitty who will blossom in a real home, and who will be a loving, faithful friend, if given the chance.

We sure hope someone gives Pumpkin the gift of a forever home for the holidays.

Pumpkin is about 12 years old, spayed, micro-chipped, current on her vaccinations, and has tested negative for FIV and FeLV. She's got lots more living to do, and would be a great best friend to whoever is lucky enough to adopt her. She also qualifies for the PAWS Pension Plan, which features no fee adoptions for cats 12 years and older, with the following included at no cost for the life of the cat: a yearly exam and senior blood workup analysis, and vaccinations as recommended by the PAWS vet. Come meet Pumpkin today!

On another note, you may have noticed that our blog has been magically transformed for the holidays, courtesy of our good friend Ann at Zoolatry. Thank you Ann, for all you do for the pet blogging community, and for our super festive header - we absolutely love it (and you)! :)

A Sassy Sunday Selfie :)

This is our beautiful new friend, Sassy. Is she majorly adorable, or what?

Sassy is still getting used to being at PAWS, and is still a little wary about people as a result of being tormented by the human children in her last home. She's making progress, though, and is generally a friendly, outgoing and playful ladycat.

Because of her past, 4 year-old Sassy would do best in a quiet home, without other pets or small children. Sassy is spayed, micro-chipped, current on her vaccinations, and negative for FIV and FeLV.

Now all Sassy needs is a real happily ever after. Won't you please give her the safe and loving home she deserves?

Here's Artemis, laying on her best pal Tracey (and giving the pawparazzi a raspberry!)
