My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Iris! Born around September 3, 2025, Iris is an incredibly sweet, very friendly tabby kitten bursting with personality and charm. She is a true people-kitty who actively seeks out attention from her family and loves being right in the middle of whatever is happening. Iris is bold, confident, and curious about everything new—fearless without being reckless. This affectionate girl enjoys being picked up and held and rewards you with one of the loudest purrs around—she’s almost always purring. Iris is also extremely playful and can turn just about anything into a toy, though her absolute favorite is a green 2-inch spring (simple joys!). She loves toys, loves playtime. Iris is great with other cats and is wonderfully confident around dogs of all sizes. She genuinely enjoys interacting with dogs. Iris is wonderful with kids of all ages. She would thrive in just about any family, from first-time pet owners to experienced cat lovers. Iris is current on vaccines, spayed and microchipped.

More about this rescue

Carolina P.A.W.S. is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization comprised of a network of compassionate Carolinians, all of whom are volunteers. We are devoted to helping abandoned and abused cats and dogs throughout the greater Charlotte area find loving homes. CPAWS does not have a facility and relies entirely on volunteer foster parents to care for an animal until we are able to find a pet their forever home. Our founding members have been collectively involved in animal rescue for over 20 years.

Carolina P.A.W.S. volunteers can be found "in the trenches," rescuing animals at high risk- those starving on the streets, languishing in shelters, and suffering in abusive situations. Each animal has a different past but our promise to them all is the same…a second chance. We provide them with medical attention, rehabilitate them physically and emotionally, and care for them in foster homes until they can be placed in loving permanent homes.

Along the way, we prepare them to become wonderful companions by taking the time to socialize them and patiently teaching them to trust. We also spay/neuter each one, provide all inoculations, and ensure that they are in perfect health before being made available for adoption.
