My personality

My story

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

Meet Rizzo! Rizzo is a 4–5 month old domestic shorthaired tuxedo kitten who is full of personality! She’s loving, playful, curious, and affectionate, always ready to brighten your day with her sweet nature. Rizzo loves batting around small toys—especially in the bathtub! She thrives on affection and enjoys spending time with people, but she’s also perfectly content exploring and entertaining herself. She gets along well with other cats and even enjoys interacting with small dogs, making her a social little companion. She’s fully litter box trained and adaptable, so she can fit seamlessly into any family setup—whether you have other pets or not. Rizzo would do well in a home with children of any age and is also great for someone who’s never had a cat before, as long as they enjoy her playful, curious kitten antics. Rizzo is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped. Contact us at adopt@carolinapaws.com to meet and adopt this sweet, playful bundle of joy!

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.
