If I weren't an awesome, smart, cool cat, I might want to be an eagle so I could be flying high where I am free to soar. Well, the people here call me Eagle anyway! That's because I was found in Whitewater State Park, and I'm named after the Eagle Trail. I look similar to three kittens who were found at the park this July: Chimney, Dakota, and Coyote, and it's possible that I am their father. I may also be related to Meadow, Valley, and Inspiration, who came to the shelter from Whitewater in early January. I'm a 2-year-old brown tabby, young adult who was extremely frightened upon arrival. I might never have been around people much, and it was pretty scary at first. A fellow named Roy T. Bennett said, "If you want to fly, you have to give up what weighs you down." Cats don't fly, but our spirits do! I can be hissy, especially if someone tries to pet me when I'm in the cat tree! But otherwise, I'm very friendly and I love attention. I relax and love having my cheeks rubbed. I like to play, and I love canned food! I would probably do best in a home with no young children because sometimes I can nip. But like my other "Whitewater" family members, I've come a long way since I got here. I'm hoping that soon I can fly like an eagle into the arms of someone who will love and cherish me as their own splendid Eagle cat. I am required to go home with my friend Meadow -- we are best buddies.
Adoption fee $100 + microchip fee $30 + tax

Paws and Claws Humane Society (PCHS) is a non-profit, mostly volunteer organization that rescues and shelters homeless cats and dogs until they can be adopted into their “forever” homes. We want our clients to understand that adopting and animal is a lifetime responsibility and commitment to that animal.
All prospective adopters must show (at the time of adoption) a valid drivers license or other acceptable identification to verify their name, address, and age. Adopters must be 18 yrs of age. Children under the age of 12 years old need to be present at time of viewing shelter cats or dogs.
After submitting an application, there is generally a processing period of 1-3 days in order to complete all pre-adoption checks and paperwork before an adopter may take possession of the animal.
