Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Howie brings so much joy! He's an active and curiously playful cat who is affectionate and quick to open up. He is also an extremely respectful gentleman who understands boundaries (who doesn't love a gentleman?). Not to mention he is oh, so, handsome in his all-natural tux! So, what are you waiting for? Howie is patiently waiting for you...

If you're interested in adopting this animal, please come meet them at our shelter! Our adoption hours are Tuesdays and Saturdays from 12pm-5pm and Wednesdays and Fridays from 12pm-7pm. No appointment is necessary!
We also have adoptable cats at the South Philly PetSmart (2360 W Oregon Ave.) on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from 12-3pm and Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-8:30pm.
If you have any questions, email us at adopt@morrisanimalrefuge.org.

When you adopt an animal, you’re not just saving the life of the animal you adopted. You’re also opening up space for the next animal in need. Our goal at the Morris Animal Refuge is to approach the adoption process holistically to make the best matches for our adopters and for our animals.
We are no longer requiring appointments or pre-approvals to adopt! Visit our shelter (1242 Lombard St) or PetSmart Adoption Center (2360 Oregon Ave.) during the following hours to adopt your new best friend. We will process your information at the time of adoption and in most cases your animal can go home with you on the same day.

Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday: 11-4
