🚗==3 FOUND STRAY CAT!!! Found 5/6/26 in the ditch of the roundabout that connects Cty hwy E and the on ramp to hwy 53 in Trego. Intact male, friendly.
Please message or comment if he's yours or know anything about him! Nothing required to get him back, we just want him where he's wanted and loved if that's a home he already has.

Who can say this is accurate sister behavior? Tag your sister in the comments!

Ginsu & Soba are adolescent kitten sisters, and they love each other so much they do everything together. Eat, groom, sleep, play, and get into trouble! They take up a lot of your camera roll with all these entertaining matches.

If you're interested in either girls, or maybe ✨BOTH✨ please email the rescue at [email protected] or DM us!

HI! My name is Toyota, and I am rambunctious, silly, and sweet. I’m just a kitten at 6 months old. I have a sister whom I’d love to go home with. Her name is Suzuki and she looks just like me, except I’m cuter. (Don’t tell Suzuki!)

I have been in a foster home (for over 175 days) since I arrived with my siblings, and I am very sociable. I love playing with all the resident cats, and we get along with the resident dog. I am a lap cat, and I love rubbing up against my foster family.

I am neutered, microchipped and up-to-date on my vaccinations. I am ready to go and need at least one other cat to play with. I would love it if you would take my sister home, too! Please contact us to set up a day to meet. You could be my Purr-fect family.

"If you're interested in Toyota, please contact A.W.W. by calling or texting 715-501-3000, emailing at [email protected], messaging our page, or check our website www.animalwelfarewi.org to fill out an adoption application. *Our website is up and running NOW.

Oh JOEY!!!!!

Joey is a ham! He loves attention and loves, loves to talk. He is a special boy who deserves an amazing second half of his life. Joey’s former family had to move and couldn’t take him with them, so he has been making himself at home at Animal Welfare Wisconsin. Joey gets to roam during the day; he loves hiding up high and looking down at all his peasants.

Joey is an 8.5-year-old short-haired tuxedo with bright gold eyes. He has a cauliflower right ear, but trust me, he has great hearing. Joey is a BIG TALKER! He loves to hear himself, and he will talk till you respond to him. Joey is also known for his headbutts. All the headbutts in the world, he does out of love!

Joey is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all his vaccinations. Joey has been with us since the middle of July; it’s been over 260 days. He would be great in a house with other cats, or he could be fine alone. Joey was the only cat in his former house, but he does great with all the cats that roam with him.

Joey would make a great roommate; he loves everyone and loves having conversations! Are you looking for an active senior who loves attention and giving headbutts? Then you have found the perfect boy, Joey!

"If you're interested in Joey, please contact A.W.W. by calling or texting 715-501-3000, emailing at [email protected], messaging our page, or check our website www.animalwelfarewi.org to fill out an adoption application. *Our website is up and running NOW.

●●Cauliflower ear: also know as aural hematoma, is a condition where the ear flap (pinna) becomes swollen and deformed, resembling a cauliflower. It is common in cats, particularly those with ear infections or trauma. Stray cats that spend time outdoors are more at risk for hematomas and cauliflower ear.●●

MELA

Italian meaning: Apple

This sweet girl is Mela, she was the mom of 3 biological kittens and 5 foster kittens. Mela was an amazing mom, and is still waiting for her fur-ever home. All her kittens and foster kittens have been adopted.

Mela is a 1.5 year-old brown tabby with a short coat and stunning green eyes. Mela is a sweet girl. She loves napping and snacking. Mela gets along great with roommates. She generally keeps to herself and doesn’t cause any major issues. Mela likes attention and will search you out for pets. (She LOVES being called a pretty girl.)

Mela is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. Mela would be good by herself, but she would also be good with another feline friend. She was an amazing mom and is a very calm, sweet cat. Mela has been with us for over 340 days. (Almost a year 😲) Can you be the purr-fect family for Mela?

"If you're interested in Mela, please contact A.W.W. by calling or texting 715-501-3000, emailing at [email protected], messaging our page, or check our website www.animalwelfarewi.org to fill out an adoption application. *Our website is up and running NOW.

Chia, Chia, Chia Pet!

Yep, you read right, this little girl is known to us as Chia Pet. Chia was a foster mom to 4 kittens, and she also had 5 of her own kittens. Chia’s a petite calico that has finally put on some weight. Chia was an amazing mom to her own kittens and the kittens she fostered.

Chia is a teenager with an old soul. She’s not as frisky as a normal 1-year-old, but she likes to do some zoomies when necessary. In a different environment, Chia may change into a very rambunctious kitten. Chia just needs a home where she can blossom into the sweet soul she is.

Chia has a shiny, short calico coat, with mesmerizing green eyes. Chia does great with the other cats she roams with, but she can sometimes get a little slappy with the kittens. She would do fine as an only cat, but she would probably enjoy having at least one other feline friend.

Chia is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on her vaccinations. Chia has been with us for over 300 days. Chia Pet is ready to go home, she’s ready to have all the attention on herself, and no one else (well, maybe one other feline friend). Can you give Chia the pur-ever home she is looking for?

"If you're interested in Chia Pet, please contact A.W.W. by calling or texting 715-501-3000, emailing at [email protected], messaging our page, or check our website www.animalwelfarewi.org to fill out an adoption application. *Our website is up and running NOW.

OC3 HAS BEEN ADOPTED AND IS DOING AMAZING IN HIS NEW HOME. He has a sister, Bella, (Goldendoodle) and brother, Louie (Orange Tabby).

Are you looking for the perfect inside/outside feline friend?

We have just the boy for you. Let us introduce you to OC3 (Orange Cat 3). I bet you can guess what color OC3 is, if you guessed orange you would be right.

OC3 came to us at no fault of his own. Since he was an outside cat, he so badly wants to go outside. OC3 is able to enjoy some outside time in the amazing catio we have at AWW.

Once this boy is outside, it’s hard to get him back in. OC3 doesn’t bother the other cats, he just wants to be left alone to bask in the sun. OC3 would love to go to a house where he is allowed outside but is free to come inside.This boy is extremely friendly and would be a great best friend.

OC3 is estimated to be around two years old, he’s neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on all vaccinations.

OC3 has been with AWW for over 100 days. This sweet boy is starting to wonder if it'll ever warm up enough for him to go out in the catio. OC3 hopes that the right family is looking at this post! Can you give him a fur-ever home?

"If you're interested in OC3, please contact A.W.W. by calling or texting 715-501-3000, emailing at [email protected], messaging our page, or check our website www.animalwelfarewi.org to fill out an adoption application. *Our website is up and running NOW.

Morty is wondering if there is anyone out there who loves pleasantly plump middle-aged cats? Morty has been with us for 224 days, or 7-months and just doesn't understand why he's still with AWW.

Morty weighed over 23 pounds when he arrived, and he is now down 7 pounds. He loves his hard kibble, but mostly only eats wet food. We will sprinkle his wet food with kibble at times.

Morty keeps to himself; he likes to find piles of blankets to lay on, even jumping up to the highest shelf. Morty can squeeze himself into the smallest pet taxi around. Morty doesn’t seem to mind the dogs, and he likes his space with the other cats. He is feeling a bit overwhelmed at the rescue, and is hoping to find his fur-ever home soon.

Morty is 6-years-old, with a tabby on white short coat. Morty's up-to-date on vaccinations, neutered and microchipped.

Can you have the ticket out of here for sweet Morty? He’s hoping to meet his sweetheart by Valentine's Day!

(Please see the flyer in the photos from Morty’s previous owners)
