My name is Berwick and I might as well come right out and tell you that I was orphaned on the side of the road. I am no modern-day Huckleberry Finn. I don’t want to be alone and wandering. I am not the tramping type or a thrill seeker. I haven’t an ounce of wander lust in me. No, I am just a cuddly, loving tiger cat who wants to go home ... to you. As you can see from my pictures, I am a young, about two years old, very handsome, fit, and trim medium-sized cat. Unlike some felines, I am easy to pick up, very snuggly, and an all-around happy guy. Nothing ruffles me. I am not bothered by new …

  My name is Milo and I have some growing to do so I can catch up with my long legs and big feet. Being an adolescent boy is a part of my charm. Don't you think I am adorable in my orange tiger striped coat? Besides being cute, I am also very friendly and playful.  I love string toys and will jump very high to catch them. I am thinking of a career in basketball or possibly a try for the US men’s gymnastics team in 2016. My event will either be the high jump or box diving. OK, as you can see from my picture, maybe I will specialize in being stuck in the box when exploring. Is there a gold …

  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 …

  My name is Luther and I am about a year old, if that. I wandered up onto someone’s porch a few weeks ago. I am big and strong, so I got away from my companion and got lost somewhere near the Stone Zoo. I was lucky to find PAWS because it is a rough world out there for lost animals. I would love to find my original family, but I am legally available for adoption now and I really, really want to settle into a new home. If you are looking at my picture, you already know I am very, very handsome, so let’s not waste time on that. I am impatient to tell you instead how much I want to go home with…

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 …

  Chocolates are nice on Valentine’s Day, but we think Shadow the German shepherd mix says I love you even better. She is ten years young, with a special personality that caught everyone’s attention right from the start. When Shadow arrived, she had some serious dental needs (and was most likely in pain). But her friendly nature and her desire to be friends with everyone she met made it clear to all involved that this girl deserved a chance at a life with a new family. With the generous financial help from Poundhounds.org, Shadow received expert and loving care at VCA Wakefield Animal …

February is Cat Appreciation Month, and I have to tell you, I am not feeling appreciated. Sure, life is good at my fosters’ house. They are very nice people with friendly pets who I get along with just fine. I am happy for the love and warmth they have shown toward me, even when I have been shy and hesitant around them. Now that I have been here for a while, I am much more relaxed.  I sleep on their beds and am happy to watch television with them. I even like being patted around my head and neck.  We have become BFFs. However, just because I am happy in my foster home does not mean I want to …

My name is Landry and having fun is my game. That means I am looking for a home with lots of action, activity, and some other animals. I love toys so I hope you have a good supply of balls, catnip mice, and strings. If you will play laser pointer with me, I will run after that red dot until I fall into an exhausted heap.  My foster parents do for me this every night, but you can take a day off occasionally, if you really need to.  I should tell you that I adore dogs of all shapes and sizes.  I am happy to wrestle and play with them.  When we are done, I can snuggle right up as I do with my …

I am a leader, not a follower.  I want to lead you to play.  I will snoop around your house until I find a fun toy and then insist you play with me.  I love to play, hunt, pounce, chase, anything.  I am a busy and active boy at 2 years old.  Found in the yard of a PAWS volunteer, I am very happy to be safely inside and living life as an indoor kitty.  But, that doesn’t hinder by love of adventure and play, play, play.  Do you want to be my playmate? I want to lead you on an adventure.  I am curious about everything.  I love to climb and explore, including the top of the fridge, your bookcases…

The New Year is a time for resolutions and Heather and her brother, Toby, have put finding a new, forever home at the top of their list. When they nap together in the afternoon, they have visions of a new family dancing in their heads. At adoption events, their eyes are wide, sizing up potential adopters. Would you consider a pair of warm and loving cats to start off your New Year on the right track?  Heather is a grey and white Siamese-mix who is super affectionate. She loves to be petted or to snuggle next to you on the couch. She also enjoys her “me- time” and has staked out her favorite …

Do you like stripes? I do. I am particularly fond of my beautiful tiger markings and the stripes on my elegantly shaped face. You can see why I was named after one of the most beautiful cities in Italy: Florence. And, wait until you meet my daughter, Naples! Yes, at just over a year old, I’m a young mom with 3 kittens, two of which were recently adopted. Now I am looking for a home for myself and for my little girl.  Naples is a wonderful kitten. She is bright, curious, and playful, with the softest coat you have ever felt and the same elegant tiger look that I have.  She loves people. Pet …

Psssst…..Over here! My name is Jetta, and I am a masked bandit who will steal your heart. That is because I am a sweet, funny, eight-month-old girl kitten who is full of capers. I love to dive into any game the kids are playing including legos and anything with a string. My beautiful markings and bushy black tail give me the look of a masked marauder, but in my heart, I really just want to be lounging on your sofa or sprawling in the sun on your rug. I have to rest up after all so I can regain the energy to dash around the house with my brother, Camaro. Like the muscle car for which he is …

  I am looking for a special partner to join me in my frolic through life. I am a young tabby who is comfortable in my fur and who knows what she likes and dislikes. My likes are many. If I see anything move—a fly, a moth, even a shadow—I pounce and jump until I get it. You will be surprised at how high I can jump. I also love high places. And, I enjoy a good splash about in the sink.  I must have been a dolphin in another life. Although I am quite active, I can also be peaceful and calm. I can sit forever in the window or on the back of your chair while you work. I would love to sit in your …

  November is adopt-a-senior cat month and we would like to reintroduce ourselves to you. We are Angel Muse and Mr. Bigglesworth, model senior citizens out to prove that that age is an attitude, not a number. A healthy, thirteen-years young, we can’t figure out why the fuss over those kittens. They may be cute, but we are beautiful. We certainly have energy and affection to match theirs and we focus ours on toys and not the carpets, sofas, and curtains. Think of us as grown-up kittens. What could be better? So are you trying to figure out who is who? I am Angel, the tortie. I am the spokes-…

My name is Twitch and I am a sweet, declawed lady with a charming and easy-going nature. I just love, love, love people. I will be the official greeter in the house with a sprawling presentation of my tummy. Okay, if you think that’s a bit over the top, I could just sit next to everyone and hang out. Despite my size (personally I think good things DO come in large packages), I am quite agile and will jump into the spot next to you—the better for us to watch your favorite movie together.  I enjoy having company whether that be human, canine, or feline. Having lived with both cats and dogs, I …

Peppermint may be a funny name for a cat, but when you see my beautiful black and white markings, you will know why they named me after a candy. I like to think they were also thinking of my sweet personality, which, like a sweet minty treat, will grow on you as we get to know each other. Enough about you, let’s talk about me. Not that I am self-centered. On the contrary. I am a girl who likes to be around people and I plan to follow you around during the day, especially if you work on your computer or do a crossword puzzle. I also like to play. who doesn’t?  And sometimes I even like to kick…

Fit, fine and quite divine young tiger male, who is 90 percent pussycat and 10 percent play stalker, seeks a loving home and people to match. I am very receptive to humans, thriving on petting and playing. I have to admit that being picked up is just not my thing. However, I will happily hold paws with you.  Vocal and happy, I will greet you with a chirp and never lose eye contact while we talk. We could share meals together if you like. I will definitely carve time out in my busy week to read the Sunday newspaper with you. If there are already other cats in residence, I would be delighted, …

They call me Gianni and I am a cat who got caught in a rainstorm. I mean, who wants to get their hair wet?  Certainly not me.  So I stood on the porch of a nice house and meowed until someone noticed me.  The family could not take me inside due to allergies, but they called PAWS for help.  I was so happy to get rescued that I jumped right into the arms of the PAWS volunteer who came to fetch me! I really love being inside where it is warm and dry. If you don’t mind, I will talk to you as I follow you around the house.  But, if you are too busy, I am fine playing with your other cats.  I am …

A little about me … I am a very friendly, sweet and inordinately affectionate young girl who runs the gamut from self-playmate, who can entertain herself for hours, to avid snuggle-bug, who seeks out people. Having an affinity for human laps (they make great places to sleep) makes me a desirable companion and a great bed warmer in the cold winter months. I look like a Calico (true) and a Manx (false). At best, I consider myself a faux Manx. Unfortunately, my tail had to be amputated due to traumatic injury. I love this cute bobbed tail they gave me.  It’s like a new short hairdo – washes up …

With the upcoming fall season, nothing shines brighter in New England than football and our much beloved Patriots. That must be why they named me after the Patriots draft pick Stevan Ridley. I am not looking to join the Patriots, but I am looking for a team of my own with a wide receiver who can catch my love and pass it right back with some love of their own for me.  I actually do not know much about football. I am a cat after all. But, I do love to pass an ice cube or two if one happens to fall on the floor. Neither can I pass up the toilet paper roll if it comes into my line of vision. …
