Mimi's Info...
| Breed: | Domestic Shorthair | Color: | Cream Or Ivory | Age: | Adult |
| Sex: | Female | ID#: | 4999784-A17286329-Foster Care | Hair: | Short |
I am already spayed, housetrained, and up to date with shots.
This animal is not at the shelter; she is in foster care. If you are interested in adopting Mimi, please email the foster parent at amer3124@yahoo.com.
Mimi was found under the front stoop of a house in South Philadelphia with kittens in tow. She is a sweet, patient, and nurturing girl who is a about 2 years old. She can be a little shy at first but give it a few minutes and she's all yours. She gets along well with other cats that can give her the space she needs. She has not had a lot of exposure to children or dogs. She comes when she hears her name, and loves to just spend time lounging next to her humans and having her head scratched.
Mimi's kittens have since moved onto their forever homes but she is patiently waiting for the perfect family to come along, will it be with you?

PAWS, the Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society, is a 501(c)3 non-profit animal rescue organization. PAWS pulls at-risk animals from the City of Philadelphia's animal control shelter and adopts them out, either from our adoption center (located at 2nd and Arch Streets), from one of our adoption locations at area PETCO and PetSmart stores, or from our network of foster homes.
PAWS is dedicated to saving the lives of Philadelphia's homeless, abandoned and unwanted animals and is working to make Philadelphia a city in which every healthy and treatable pet is guaranteed a home.
When you adopt a pet from PAWS you truly save a life!

Shelter Info...
PAWS is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to saving Philadelphia’s homeless, abandoned, and unwanted animals. PAWS is Philadelphia’s largest no-kill shelter and is working to make it a place in which every healthy and treatable pet is guaranteed a home. PAWS rescues animals at the city’s animal control shelter that are in the greatest danger of being euthanized and places them either up for adoption or into temporary foster homes. Through its adoption locations, special events, and foster care network, PAWS finds loving homes for thousands of animals each year. Support for PAWS funds lifesaving programs such as adoption and foster care, low-cost vaccinations, spay/neuter surgeries, and other efforts, all of which reduce and will ultimately eliminate the unnecessary killing of Philadelphia’s homeless animals.
