Gansett wants to play for your team.
My name is Gansett and perhaps you have met me at PAWS’ adoption days. Everyone loves me there as I sit like a gentleman in my blue harness and greet the visitors. Adoption days are fun, but I must say that I am sick and tired of sitting on the bench as other cats are scoring goals. I want a real home team of my own to play with. I am very handsome in my grey and white coat. I used to be a bit portly, which was a shame for a young guy like me. After all, I am in the prime of my life at 8 years old. But I have successfully lost the extra weight, and I did not even need Weight Watchers. That is because my foster mom had me running the treadmill. Well, not really, but she did insist I do the stairs at the house in order to earn my kibble. We…

This brave cat wants a home with no drama.
What would you do if there was a raccoon eying your babies? You would grab a baby and run. That is how I ended up at PAWS. That raccoon was scaring me, so I took one baby in my mouth and started across the street. That seemed unwise, so I headed back. I guess some people noticed me looking indecisive and worried. It was my lucky day when I was rescued with that kitten in my mouth. It was an even luckier day because my rescuers went back and looked around and found my other three kittens. We were taken to a warm place with great food and nice people. My kittens grew up fat, sassy and safe and they all got adopted. It’s only me left now and I am looking for a home of my own. One without drama. That one exciting day was enough for my …

Avon is a bright and curious cat who will make you laugh.
My name is Avon and curiosity is my game. Yes, I am an inquisitive sort. I love to sit by the window and watch the birds. There is a nice rhododendron bush outside the dining room window and sometimes I get so excited I forget I am on the sill and fall off. But don’t worry, I get right back on and do it all over again. It’s all part of the fun! I am also fascinated by the three-year-old human that I live with. I can sit and watch him forever. I know how to play gently. I also know how to get out of his way when he gets too rambunctious! But mostly, I just want to sit near him and watch. True to my curious side, I am known to steal a toy or sock or something. When I find a toy that I like, I dash through the house with it while my “peeps” …

Twizzle is a gray and white striped tiger cat looking for a new home.
My name is Twizzle. I did not pick my name, or my coat, but I think both fit me quite nicely. I love my grey and white outfit with its subtle stripes. That’s the understated side of me. As you read further, you’ll learn more about my extra sizzle. OK, those are big words for a kitten so you know I am getting some help writing this. After all, I am just a little guy. Like all kittens, I love to play. I will chase anything, but I especially enjoy that long grey thing I keep glimpsing behind me. I run after it in circles and cannot seem to catch it. It is always just out of my reach, but I do plan to catch it eventually. I am a persistent little fellow. In the meantime, I’m happy to catch the tails of my playmates. I can resist pouncing…

A friendly, sweet guy seeks love and affection.
Let me introduce myself. I’m Stuart and I’m a real lap cat. There is nowhere I would rather be than sitting in your lap and nothing I would like better than being patted. I promise that I am not one of those felines that will tease you with a quick visit, jumping off the minute things don’t go my way. If you like to cuddle, I would be your dream feline since I will roll over for you. Can you be sure to give me some belly rubs while you are at it? If you look at my picture, you will see that I have a really beautiful and touchable tummy. I hope you can tell that I am a people guy. I am going to wait in the window for you to come home from work and I will greet you at the door. I will put my paws on your shoulders to look at you eye-to-eye…

Orange and white Scotchie is the complete package.
My name is Scotchie and I am an amazing feline with red and white fur and luminous green eyes. Sweet, gentle and playful, I love people. In fact, even though I haven’t met you yet, I already know that I like you. Call me and I will come running to you for a head scratch and a play session. I love to chase the cat dancer toy and I will chase any string or ball you send my way. Pile up some pennies for me and I will play hockey with them. I must have been a Bruin in another life. Besides liking people, I am great with other animals. As long as they respect my space, dogs do not faze me at all. I like cats, too, and I know how not to be aggressive if they are just not that into me. I mean, why should I bother when there are so many other …

Beautiful green-eyed Brewster seeks his soul mate.
My name is Brewster and I am a two-year-old with spectacular green eyes and the silkiest black medium-haired coat you ever did touch. Please, do not think I am conceited when I describe myself this way. It is just a fact that I am very handsome and wonderful. I want you to know that I not going to let you love me for my beauty alone. I am looking for a very special person or persons who will take the time to get to know the real me. If you do, I think you will find that I have a lot more to offer than silky fur and amazing eyes. Right now, I am living in a wonderful foster home with very nice people. They are so friendly and I especially like when they shine the laser light for me. That game turns me right back into a kitten; it makes me …

Carberry is a young, beautiful, super-affectionate tabby cat.
My name is Carberry and I am a laid-back, young adult with simple needs. I am 14 pounds and all brawn, so hopefully I can fit on your lap. If not, I would be happy to just hang out with you—the closer the better. And, if you will brush me, I will follow you anywhere. I absolutely adore being brushed. In fact, if you are not brushing me, I will come and nuzzle you as a reminder. I am just a guy who likes his simple pleasures and that is one of them for me. I am cool with other cats and dogs, but I would prefer that other feline friends are as gentle and welcoming as I am. However, I would also be just fine as your one and only as long as you have time to spend with me. Maybe we could have a dinner date? You should know that I’ll always be …

Kobe, although he's a Snowshoe mix, prefers a warm house to cross-country skiing.
My name is Kobe and I am a Snowshoe mix. That doesn’t mean I like winter sports. On the contrary, I am a stay-at-home kind of guy. I want to be inside where it is cozy and warm and where I can be with my favorite animal: humans. You should be warned that I like to keep my humans close by. Wherever you go in your house, I will be following you around. I also love to play, either with you, or by myself. When we are done playing, I like to have a little brush and a head scratch. They say I have the cutest meow, but I don’t use it to be cute. I use it to let you know I want to eat if you are late serving my meal. When dinner is over, I would love to crawl into your lap. I am a big cat however, so if this does not work for you, perhaps we …
