It's Tuesday, so we have to feature Tuesday the cat!

Tuesday is a friendly guy who arrived after being found outdoors. He loves all the attention he can get!

This two-year-old should do well in a home with dogs and other cats. As far as kids, Tuesday would be better without young siblings -- he tends to give playful nibbles when he is happy.

Come meet Tuesday this Tuesday or any other day of the week when PAWS is open.

Pop Quiz -- how many cats do you see in this photo?

At first, it may look like Damselfly has very unique markings with a gray head and black and white legs.

However, it is Damselfly using the legs of her best friend Bucky as a pillow!

It's common to see our cats snuggled up with one another in their hidey beds - making for adorable sights to see!

That feeling you get when you realize it's Monday morning. Who's feeling the same as Thelma?!?

Beautiful three-year-old Thelma is tired after enjoying the gorgeous sunny weather this past weekend!

When you first meet Thelma, this sweetheart with a gentle heart and thoughtful nature may seem shy.

Give her a little time, and you will be rewarded with an incredibly devoted and loving companion!

Do you remember Champ and Bolt, the wonderful pair who were born with Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH cats are lovingly called wobbly cats)?

These two with the biggest hearts quickly became favorites at PAWS, so you can imagine how happy we were to receive this :

"From the absolute deepest bottom of my heart, thank you for trusting me to give Bolt and Champ a home.

With how severe Bolts CH is, I didn't expect her to be very active. When she sees a wand toy, she will chase the thing to the ends of the earth for the chance to 'kill' it. She does not care; that toy is going down. She pounces incredibly accurately also.

But, when she isn't being the menace she likes to be, Bolt is so affectionate. She purrs, crawls, and stretches into your lap; then asks you to fall asleep on the floor with her. It’s heart melting.

Champ is a companion with behavior that I've only seen in a dog. He comes when he's called; he follows; he's the bathroom guard; he jumps in the bed and takes up half of it.

He isn't much like Bolt in play time. Where Bolt is electric and pounce happy, Champ is a patient alpha predator. He lies in wait for the perfect opportunity to pounce on a toy. He really likes when a toy is hidden, then pops out.

As for them together, they are very obviously bonded. During the daytime, they cuddle on their blanket in my room for hours. They get annoyed when I walk in to check on them. It's the biggest stink eye I've ever gotten from a pet!

I can't believe how much they've turned my place into a home. I couldn't be happier with how happy they are.

They were meant to be together, and they deserve only the best. I'm happy to do my best to give it to them."

Sweet Bailey is a few months shy of two years old, and this momma is ready to get pampered and loved!

Bailey was a proud mom when she came to PAWS with her babies (first two photos). The kittens are much bigger now and beginning their PAWS Happy Tails, so Bailey is ready to meet her own family.

Her foster mom shared that Bailey is a super playful gal who acts a bit like a kitten herself!

She doesn't mind being picked up and loves attention. Plus, Bailey loves other cats and gets along with the dog she is currently living with in her foster home.

Come meet Bailey this Sunday or any weekend when she's back at PAWS!

It's going to be a beautiful day out there, and we think there's no better way to celebrate than a picnic with Obi! πŸŒΈβ˜€οΈπŸŒˆπŸŒ³

This sweet guy has quickly become a PAWS favorite and has so much to offer. Obi is endlessly friendly, full of love and curiosity, and has a gentle and calm demeanor. 15-year-old Obi enjoys spending time with both his people and his laid-back doggy friends, and is both house trained and crate trained. If you think Obi could be your perfect picnic partner, apply to adopt him on our website.
