My story

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

Hello, I'm Valentino! My journey to the shelter is quite the tale. One starry night, while exploring the city's enchanted alleyways, I stumbled upon a secret gathering of mystical cats. They shared tales of humans who cherished cats like us. Inspired, I followed a trail of magical whispers that led me to a TNR group. They saw how sociable I was and brought me here, to Paws Animal Shelter! I'm playful and friendly, always ready for a game or a cuddle. If you're looking for a magical companion to fill your days with joy and adventure, I'm your cat!

Note from Paws humans: Valentino is certainly a loving cat, one of the first to greet you when you enter his room at the shelter (he's in the Catacabana). He loves to play, he gets along well with his roommates, and would be a loving addition to virtually any family.

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!
