Golden Paw Society, Inc. GPS: Helping Shelter Cats Find Their Way Into Forever Homes

We rescue cats from kill shelters and care for them at our adoption center until they are adopted.

Follow along and be a virtual part of our rescue mission! Located in Huntington NY Our shelters are filled to capacity with homeless, displaced cats; cats of all ages, many adults, who either sit for several months (day in, day out) waiting to be discovered and who are at-risk of being euthanized if they have or develop health issues or exhibit too much stress in captivity. Regardless of condition

s, no shelter cage is a happy or appropriate place for a cat to be in and cats suffer tremendously in the shelter setting, often surrounded by loud, barking dogs. In order to help us fulfill our mission, we have created a cat center for the cats we rescue! This is a true home-away- from-home for the cats to enjoy while we continue the work of finding homes for them. In our care, each cat we rescue is kept safe, comfortable and tended to medically and emotionally in preparation for adoption. Here, it’s all about the cats, and it’s about letting each one of them know they are wanted and wonderful even though somebody at some point in their lives decided they weren’t. One thing we know for sure: Whatever condition the cats are in when we remove them from the shelter setting, without fail they each begin to transform and come into their own and become the cats they are meant to be. It's an amazing and beautiful thing to see, and once they are adopted they transform even more. THIS is the beauty in what we do and this is the thing that keeps us driven to continue to do more. We are so proud and so excited to be doing this, and we ask for your support. Please visit our website at www.goldenpawsociety.org to see if there is a way you may be able to help us…So many homeless and hopeless cats will appreciate it, as will we!

We have been gifted with the BEST cat trees and climbers everrrr! NO ASSEMBLY required!
We don't even have to take them out of the boxes and the cats love them!!

All joking aside, we truly are blown away by the massive pile of donations we received from our friends at The Odierno Law Firm, P.C. !! (more pics in comments)

Each year, they ask us for an updated wish list and then they knock our socks off with an amazing delivery of all of the things our cats need and love to be happy! We are so grateful for their generosity and compassion!

Cats, and the people who love them, really do make this world a better place!!

Thankful Thursday, with Munchie

Munchie had a rough past. We're not sure of all he endured, but we know he came to us with some imperfections that make him look a little worse for wear and with some medical issues that have challenged him a bit. Many a visitor has asked, "What happened to this cat?" and we can't answer because Munchie can't tell us! (boy do we wish cats could talk!!)

The beautiful thing, though, is that everybody loves Munchie anyway. 😍

It doesn't matter that he doesn't look quite like the others. He's Munchie, and after a quick moment of concern for his appearance the next thing you know is you're drawn into his peaceful presence, his adorable uniqueness and the realization that he is worthy of the same love every cat wants and deserves.

:)

We love you Munch!!! and we are so grateful to you for all the hearts you have opened just by being you!

Two things:

a. pls turn on the water so I can sip from the sink,

but ALSO and more importantly

b. pls also adopt me so I can sip from the sink at YOUR house!

(Cara is a chatty, fun, sweet, affectionate and essentially purrfect buddy cat just waiting to be chosen for Forever! Only about 2yo and available now at our Adoption Center in Huntington Station NY)

Ever been afraid?

Not just a little bit scared but the kind of fear that stops you in your tracks and makes it impossible for you to be yourself?

I had that.

When it's happening nobody can really tell you anything to make it go away...though well meaning others will try.

So what does it take?

For me it was a combination of:

Time (to step back, breathe, observe and allowing myself a chance to see that I am, ultimately, ok)

Help (in any form necessary, whether it be good food or needed medication, a new blanket or just a soft presence..it is OK to need and receive help)

Acceptance (that not all changes are wanted and things are not what I would have expected or wished for... but I am still ok)

Warmth (from others towards me, from me towards myself ...and then finally being able to offer warmth to others)

🥰

So here I am! I'm not just a cat in need of a home, but I also happen to be living proof that healing is possible.

(10yo Rowan came to us completely distraught after losing his owner and ending up in a shelter. It took a few months but he is just one of our little miracles ready to be chosen for Forever with you! Available at our Adoption Center in Huntington Station NY)

Are you KITTEN me? OMG !

Kiki the kitten is READY!

This little girl is a survivor, having somehow made it on her own outside until she was found and brought to a shelter. There she was treated for upper respiratory infection and flea dermatitis, all while being terrified and frozen in her shelter cage.

A few weeks ago we were asked to please give her a chance to be a normal kitten in a nurturing environment and, since that happens to be our specialty, it has worked wonders for her!

Kiki is a young baby with an old soul for sure! You can see it in her eyes and feel it in her tiny purring body when you hold her - she has a world of experience behind her and cannot wait to share her love with you!

Just about 8mos old, loves other cats and humans, and available now at our Adoption Center in Huntington Station NY.

In this world where you can be anything,

be Nell's human!

This little girlie-girl was a tight ball of terror when we met her in the shelter - but that was a few months ago and now? Belle of the Ball!!! Took a wee bit of coaxing but Nell now realizes she is SAFE and that life has so many great things to offer - starting with YOU!

Help make Nell's dream come true!

Not even a full year old, purry and fabulous and available now at our Adoption Center in Huntington Station NY

Where do I begin?

I had a home and a human but...that human was apparently unable to afford vet care for me so I went years (not days, not weeks, not months but YEARSSSSS) suffering with an extremely painful mouth with infected gums and teeth.)

You know how much it hurts when you have ONE sensitive tooth? Try a mouthful. For years.

Anyway, that is over now. GPS got my teeth all taken care of and I feel MUCHHHH better! I still have a bit of a seriousness about me because it is very traumatic being in pain and not being able to tell anyone and not being able to get any help.

Each day I heal a little bit more, but I do believe what I need more than anything in the world is to be in a home again - and this time with a true, forever love.

Please can you give a girl a chance and help the sparkle return to my little face and eyes? I will be your best little snuggle pal if you'll have me!

(Phoebe, 8yo, is gentle and sweet and meowy and wonderful! She loves to chat and needs someone she can tell her story to! Is that you? Available now at our Adoption Center in Huntington Station NY)
