Introducing Velma, Bertha, Penelope, Paisley, and Piper-five incredible mom cats who are ready to embark on their next chapter in life and find the loving homes they truly deserve. These resilient ladies and their 23 kittens recently joined us after being surrendered during a search warrant, and now they're eagerly awaiting the chance to bring joy and companionship to their forever families. They are good with cats, dogs, and children. All but Paisley are bob tails.
Leading the pack is Velma, the epitome of sweetness and grace. As the mom of the other adults, she exudes maternal warmth and is sure to steal your heart with her gentle nature. She's the matriarch of this kitty family and loves all of them deeply, but also loves people!
Next up is Bertha, a stunning girl with a presence that commands attention. She's best suited to go home with either Bertha or Velma, as she shares a special bond with them that's truly heartwarming. Of the five, Bertha is the most sensitive, and would prefer older children.
Penelope is another darling member of the group, and she has a particular fondness for Bertha and Velma. For Penelope, a home with one of these lovely ladies would be a dream come true. She's become so very loving!
Piper is our friendly social butterfly, always eager to make new human friends and share her affection with everyone she meets. She is the boldest explorer, most exuberant player, and has zero fear of dogs. She's closest with Paisley.
Last but certainly not least, there's Paisley, the adorable one with a tail that's as cute as can be. With her unique charm and endearing personality, she's sure to capture your heart in an instant. She's a sweet, easy keeper.
These five mom cats have been through a lot, but their spirits remain unbroken, and their capacity for love knows no bounds. If you're ready to open your heart and home to one (or more!) of these incredible felines, don't hesitate to come meet them at our adoption center. Let's give Velma, Bertha, Penelope, Paisley, and Piper the happy endings they deserve!

Go meet their pets
Adopt a new furry friend
Our volunteer foster homes get to know their fostered animals well and understand their personalities—allowing us to make great matches between people and pets! Let us know about your family situation, current pets, and the type of pet you are looking for and we can guide you to animals that would be a great match.
Our primary adoption site is the Angel’s Wish Pet Adoption and Resource Center at 161 Horizon Drive, Suite 106 in Verona-just a few minutes from Madison. Visit adoptable animals, and get acquainted in private visiting rooms. Open hours are Saturdays 10am to 4pm and Sundays 1pm to 4pm.
We also hold weekly adoptions on Sundays from 1pm to 4pm at Petsmart East in Madison at 2216 East Springs Drive.
Stop by a regularly scheduled or special “mobile” adoption event at locations throughout Dane, Jefferson, and Rock counties. Please see our website to see where the pets will be next!

More about this rescue
Angel’s Wish is an all-volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)3 organization founded in 2000.
Mission Statement
Angel’s Wish is dedicated to reducing animal overpopulation, rehoming companion animals, and raising awareness of animal welfare issues in South Central Wisconsin.
Why are we called Angel's Wish?
Lois Lawrence, a founding member of Angel's Wish, once rescued a kitten from a construction site. Weak with starvation, dehydration, and a severe upper respiratory infection, neither veterinary treatment nor Lois’ love and care could save the kitten from the effects of that hot June day. Angel died that night in Lois' arms. We believe that Angel's Wish would have been that no other animal be subjected to pain, suffering, abandonment or neglect.
About the Animals of Angel’s Wish
We divert animals from ever arriving at area shelters, and as space allows, assist rescue groups and shelters. We accept only animals we have space to care for, and euthanize only for severe medical or temperament reasons. Animals stay in their current home or are cared for in volunteer foster homes until adoptive homes are found.
