Dennis is a Sweetie-Pie and waiting for you at PAWS.
I hope you don’t watch too much television from the 1960’s. I say that because I may be called Dennis, but I am very much not a menace. I am mellow and sensible and I never make mischief. OK, I may look a little gruff. But that is all a put-on to cover up the fact that I am actually a love-bug and a sweetie-pie. How sweet am I? Well, I will cuddle right next to you and purr you to sleep. I love to be petted and have my ears rubbed. Belly rubs? I adore those. I just want to be near you. That does not mean I am all laziness and lying around. I do like to bat around a ball or two and I can really get into a game of chase the mouse on the wire. But no hi-jinx for me, if you know what I mean. When you do not have time to play…

Gypsy is a real angel.
Wait, why are you walking by my window? I want to look at you. You seem nice. I know I am nice. Don’t you think we would make a great pair? I do. Why not come inside and meet me? I am definitely looking for a new home. This cage at PetSmart is clean and safe, but that is about all I can say for it. I am ready for a home of my own and you sure look like a good adopter. You have a dog, you say? No problem on my part. Another cat? Well, that depends. We can discuss it. So my name is Gypsy Angel and I am a petite, medium haired, girl with a beautiful black coat and a fleck of white on my chest. Very elegant, if I do say so myself. Especially my fluffy tail, which I use to signal my pleasure. Tails are great, aren’t they? Oh, …

Adorable puppy looking to adopt new owners.
This Yorkie-Chihuahua Mix Wants to Adopt You Hi! My name is Penelope Tofs, but you can call me Penny. Actually, you can call me anything you like if we can be friends. OK, now that we are friends, I have to tell you a secret. I am looking to adopt a person or family. Please don’t tell anyone because I don’t want my potential adoptees to get scared off. Sometimes people don’t know they are being adopted by the rescue pet and not the other way around. Oh my goodness, people can be silly. People describe me as a big personality in a small package and they ooh and ahh over my cuteness and spunk (whatever that is). I may be only five pounds, but that does not mean I don’t know what I want. I like lots of things. I am very curious and …

Marlie and Sadie are young, bonded sisters.
Hi, my name is Marlie, the tortie you see in the pictures. Yes, I know I am beautiful, but don’t tell my sister. Her name is Sadie and, although she is beautiful, too, you know how sisters can be. I think, sometimes, she gets jealous. Of course, there is never so much as a hiss or twitchy tail between us. We are a very loving pair of young, bonded siblings who have been together since birth. We may be littermates, but we do have our own personalities. So, let me tell you more, starting with me, of course. I am the social butterfly in this family. I love to be around people and will come running when you call me and follow you around, just like a puppy dog. And, I’m so fascinated by water that I am likely to want to jump in with …

This cat is looking for a new home—could it be yours?
Brummble-Rumble-Brummmmbr... That is me, Maddy, the purr machine. Can you hear my engine revving up? Purring is one thing I do very well because I am a very content cat. And why wouldn’t I be? I have had a great life with a wonderful person who I loved very much. Unfortunately, my human died after we were together for ten years. She got me as a kitten and always took good care of me. As you can imagine, I miss her very, very, much. But, she is gone, and I have to accept that fact no matter how sad it makes me. Now, I am glad to be in a PAWS foster home. Some cats my age are not so lucky. Thank goodness PAWS believes that there is someone for everyone, and that a healthy, middle-aged cat still has many good years ahead to love another …

Jax is waiting for you at PAWS.
If I look sad in my photo, it is because I really want to have a home of my own again. I am a young and healthy guy who loves people. I loved my former people right up until they brought home a Great Dane puppy. Yeah, puppies are cute. But do you know how big that cute thing got? I can’t even describe it. I’m sure he was a good guy, but I was way too intimidated to find out. Having to deal with my fear of the dog made my life quite stressful and so we all decided it would be best if I found a new home. Enough of the sad stuff because I am not letting that define my life. Let me tell you instead how wonderful I am. First and foremost, I am a handsome, white cat with dark grey patches. OK, I am a bit portly, but we could work on …

Fudgecicle is waiting for you at PAWS.
Hi everyone. My name is Fudgecicle, but you can call me Fudge, for short. As you can see, I am not a good speller. But I think I got my name because I am all brown like the frozen treat called a fudgesicle. Or maybe it was because I am extremely sweet, if a bit fuzzy. I am also quite unique with my medium-length, fine hair with no undercoat. You will be amazed by how soft and silky I am. Besides my beauty (and let’s not discount that), I am a very easy kitty to have around. I can be initially cautious, and will most likely hide in a new environment or around new people. But you can pull me out of my hiding spot and I won’t even complain. Once I feel safe (give me ten or so minutes), I will be ready to meet you and show you my …

Brenda has twinkly toes and a sparkly, sweet personality. She is waiting for you at PAWS.
I am sleek, sweet, and looking for my forever home. My name is Brenda and I am almost all black except for two white toes and a few white hairs at my chest and neck. I think I am stunning. My foster thinks I am sweet as can be. I believe we are both right! Besides having two twinkly white toes, I also have a personality that is just as sparkly. I am very playful and love to snuggle. I came to PAWS with three young kittens and I used to run around and play with them. Now that they are gone, I will play with any other cat who is interested in having a romp. I get along with just about every cat I have met. So, I would be a perfect addition to your home if you are looking to add another feline. No worries about me getting anyone’s …

This cat is looking for a new home. Could it be yours?
Happy New Year! I certainly hope you will have something good to celebrate as we enter 2013. I, on the other hand, am not in the mood because I won’t have anyone to be with to watch the ball drop or to kiss me at the stroke of midnight. But, you go ahead and have a good time. I don’t mind. I will just stay here at PetSmart and wait for someone to fall in love with me and take me home. It’s not a big deal. I am not a party guy anyway. Not really. Well, ok, maybe a little. I’ll just have to postpone my celebration until I have a real home with people who love me and toys to play with and a warm chair or lap for when I get tired out. It’s not the champagne and streamers I will miss—although, I could really get into chasing those streamers! …

Sequoia is not a tree, but a wonderful cat.
Look at me under the Christmas tree! With a name like Sequoia, I think I should have been photographed under my own tree. But, of course, sequoia trees grow mostly in California, and I am definitely a Massachusetts cat. I was found in Reading and rescued by PAWS with the help of a very nice lady who was feeding me. I wish my previous owners had kept me in the house so I would not have gotten lost. But I do consider myself one lucky cat to be spending the holidays inside. The only thing that would make me happier would be to be with a forever family of my own. As I said, I was found outside with a kitten named Hickory (who is already adopted!). They thought Hickory was my baby, but in fact, when I was spayed last week, they discovered…
