Sylvester is no Stallone, but is he waiting for you at PAWS.
My name is Sylvester, but my last name is Reed, not Stallone. While I think I have the charisma of a movie star, I would rather be the lead in a romantic comedy, not a bang ‘em up fighter flick like Rambo or Rocky. I have the green eyes of a leading man, so while I admit I look tough, at heart I am a lover, not a fighter. Actually, that is an understatement. I am a four-year-old fuzzy cuddle guy who wants nothing more than to be with you. I honestly can’t tell you how I ended up on the streets of Wakefield, but I know I am so glad to be off of them and in a warm comfortable home with humans. I love humans. I love their company, their conversations, to which I am a huge contributor, and of course their warm human laps. I enjoy neck, …

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 …

I Go By Lincoln... or Mr. Snuggles.
So you know my name. But do you know how smart I am? I decided life on the street was not for me… too cold, too hungry, too lonely. So I found my way to this house and hung around acting friendly until, unable to resist my charms, the resident PAWS volunteer saw me and took me inside. It was February 12, Lincoln’s birthday, which I have now dubbed my “new-birth day.” It’s also the day they started calling me Lincoln. Ah, I do like PAWS. Life here is great and I have no desire to go outside ever again. Why would I? I have everything I need right here in my foster home. What do I have here that I like? Well, first of all people. I adore people. I purr as soon as anyone picks me up and I am always up for a good snuggle session and a…

Lowell is waiting for you at PAWS.
The Days are Warming Up, But Lowell Will Still Keep You Snuggly Warm. Oooh, I like the looks of you. I do, I do. My name is Lowell and I am a young, sweet, and very unique looking cat who wants a new home and family. And I think you might just be the one for me. Well, to be honest, I have never met a person I did not like. I am just a very, very, friendly guy. And, a really nice kitty, too. Maybe you are more picky than I am? So, let me tell you about myself and then you can decide whether or not we are meant for each other. (Of course, I am certain you will discover that we are a perfect match, but I am pretending to let you decide—wink, wink.) I am young and playful. I love to play, especially when you dangle things for me to …

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 …

Bella D loves humans and warm laps.
Bella D is my name and affection is my game. At three years old, I am just getting started. I am a girl who knows what she wants, and what I want is to sit on your lap while you pet me. If you ignore me, I will let you know with my very loud meow. I don’t talk a lot. But when I do, I make myself understood. I may sound pushy, but I am actually a very mellow feline. Nothing bothers me and I love everyone and everything. OK, I did not appreciate being in a cage during adoption hours, but then I did not mind the hyperactive dog that came over to see me. I even thought he might be fun! As for not liking the cage, well, you can fix that by coming to adopt me so I don’t have to go there again. I think that should be your plan. Besides …

Gentille likes to chase the ball around the track.
My name is Gentille, which is French for nice, kind, lovely. I am all that and more. I am a petite (seven pounds), stunning girl. My white coat has some very special tiger markings and I have the most amazing tail known to feline kind: it is striped and beautiful. I know for a fact there is not a more beautiful or striking cat in the entire world. Despite my beauty, I am not looking for a life filled with high-society parties. Not at all. I am seeking a quiet household with a warm lap or two (or three) to lounge on. Men, women, it doesn't matter as long as your laps are warm and inviting and I get a lot of petting and kisses. As you will learn when we meet, I can never resist cuddling with someone who is lying down. Stretch yourself …
