My story

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

Hello, my name is: Patrick
Approx. DOB: 10/29/2022
Weight: 10.5 lbs
Sex/breed: Neutered male domestic shorthair
Rescued from: Hoarding case

A few weeks ago, we brought 27 cats into our care from a profoundly sad hoarding situation. These beautiful souls once had a loving owner who struggled with their own mental health. When that owner passed away, the entire feline family was left alone to fend for themselves until help arrived.

Thanks to the generosity of our rescue friends who transferred many of the cats into their own programs, we have 12 remaining in our care. The cats are split among several foster families, who are working slowly and diligently to help them trust again.

Introducing the first three of the 12: Patrick (tuxedo), Cameron (brown tabby), and Katarina (cow spots).

Patrick is the little confidence booster of the group. He`ll arch his back in a sweet, flirty request for scratches from his foster mom. He has a loud purr that shows how relieved he is to have love in his life again.

Cameron is the shyest and needs quiet encouragement to engage. He allows gentle handling, which is a huge step for a sweet, scaredy boy.

Katarina is a very watchful kitten and skittish about touch. Her curiosity is starting to win over her hesitation, though! She`s recently started tentatively playing with string toys when her foster mom dangles them around.

These sweet kitties thrive in the company of other cats and would do best in quiet homes. Despite the conditions they came from, they use the litter box and scratching posts faithfully. They can go home in pairs or as singles to homes with at least one other friendly feline.

They need patient, gentle adopters who are committed to continuing the slow, loving work of socialization. The reward of watching a shy cat like these finally choose to trust you is truly unparalleled.

Are you ready to offer one, two, or even three of these resilient survivors a peaceful, forever home?

All our pets are microchipped, spayed/neutered, and up to date on vaccinations and preventatives.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

All 4 Paws is a foster-based rescue located in Malvern, PA. Since all of our dogs live in foster homes (instead of in a shelter environment), we are able to learn a tremendous amount about them and their needs. This helps us make great matches between our adopters and their new best friends! We do our best to keep the adoption process straight-forward and simple in an effort to get our available pets into permanent, stable and loving homes in a timely manner.

Our Adoption Process:

1. You submit an application.

You can submit an application by clicking the appropriate application button at the bottom of this page. If you have already been approved by or adopted from All 4 Paws, select the "Previously Approved" application for a shortened version. Be sure to include what you are looking for in your new pet as it helps us with the matchmaking process!

2. We contact your references.

We will contact your vet (if you have/had a pet), your landlord/property manager (if applicable), along with a few personal references right away. Please let all references know that we will be contacting them. This will help us to speed things along!

3. We send an email notifying you of the status of your application.

Please note: We get a lot of interest in our dogs and there is no guarantee that an approved application will secure your adoption of the dog you expressed interest in.

4. If approved, you work directly with our Adoptions Team to discuss our dogs and to set up an adoption appointment.

We’re happy to adopt to out-of-state families! Please note that, in accordance with our PA Kennel License, all adoptions must be completed in person at our Malvern, PA office. You can also meet a few of our dogs at once at our Meet & Greet Events. Events are a great opportunity to speak with our fosters and volunteers to discuss all of our dogs.

This fee includes a wellness exam, all age-appropriate vaccines, spay/neuter surgery, heartworm testing (when age appropriate), worming, microchip and registration, flea/tick prevention, as well as any additional care recommended by our vet (i.e. dental cleanings, bloodwork, etc.).
