This is Momma Margarita and her daughter Larissa below. They sound like heroines from a Victorian novel!
Paws never uses numbers instead of names, but I wonder how often adopting families keep the shelter names.
Great cat names- click HERE.
The shelter has kittens. Despite the snow on the ground, Spring is in the air! Amanda is the dark tortoiseshell and her sister Amy is the pale dilute torti.
At 9 months old, Franklin is a very outgoing friendly teenager.
Franklin has been adopted!
This is 6 month old Larisa who is at the shelter with her mom, Margarita.
I’ve been reading about cat markings, and she would be considered a patched tabby, maybe.
Tortie-tabby, torbie, caliby, dilute whatever… she’s a very cute cat!
You can read about markings here and get more confused too.
Cyrus has been adopted, but Momcat Pearl and her baby Lizzie are holding out for a home where they can be together.
Meanwhile, Pearl is making sure Lizzie is nice and clean.
Pearl and Lizzie have been adopted together!
Two of the sweetest young girl cats at the shelter!
Katherine has been adopted- and Emily too!
Fonzie has been adopted but Richie, Ralph and Potsie are still at the shelter.
Remembering the animals who passed through the shelter in 2009 on their way to a much happier New Year.
A good, safe, and loving family for all the homeless.
(This kitten is a south paw.)
These kittens had a short stay in a carrier while I cleaned their messy cage and gave them a fresh bed, food, and water.
I wish I had loaded them up to go to a new home…
There’s a special adoption event at the PAWS shelter next Sunday.
“Home for the Holidays!”
These kittens have each other to play with, full tummies, warm beds, and people to cuddle them. The shelter is a wonderful place to wait for a real home and true love.

How can anyone resist this perfectly friendly, healthy, playful tabby boy?
Update: Someone couldn’t resist! Hank has a new home.
Needed: Loving homes. Benefits include years of companionship, affection and entertainment! Apply for adoption at PAWS.
Update: Orphans no more. Gone home together!
This is Fonzie. He is the alpha kitten in this litter. Potsie and Ralph are more timid, still adjusting to shelter life.
