My story

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

Hi, I'm Shadow. I'm a gentle, shy, and sweet kitten who was born in a busy home with too many cats. I love quiet corners and soft whispers. My days are filled with small adventures, like chasing shadows or finding the coziest spot for a nap. I dream of a home where I can blossom and share my tender heart. Adopting me means gaining a loyal friend who will always cherish your gentle touch and quiet company.

Note from Paws humans: Shadow was born to a home in Springfield with too many cats. This couple has rescued a number of strays in Springfield, and didn't get the last one spayed in time to prevent her from delivering a litter of kittens. The couple was overwhelmed by the number of cats in their home, and Shadow was overwhelmed too. We took Shadow in to offer her an opportunity to find a loving home with fewer cats!

More about this shelter

The Champaign County Humane Association, Inc. (CCHA) was founded in 1977, initially relying solely on fosters to care for stray animals. In 1991 they opened Paws Animal Shelter in Champaign County, a rural county with a total population of about 39,000. In 2018 the CCHA decided to transition Paws Animal Shelter to a cat-only facility, as there is a desperate need in our area for additional shelter spaces for cats and kittens.

Thanks to a generous donation we were able to expand our shelter in 2021, which has enabled us to rescue even more cats and kittens. While this is obviously a positive development, it has definitely increased our operating costs, as so many cats and kittens that we take in have not been spayed or neutered. In addition, many cats that are surrendered to us have not been in homes with the financial resources to properly care for them, so we frequently have to pay for dentals and other expensive procedures. We are passionate about saving as many cats and kittens as possible, and they have a home with us until we find a forever home for them!
