Story
When Paige arrived at CWA, she was the definition of cage rage. Swatting, hissing, spitting at us, her faithful servants, when we cleaned her cage. Little girl was a handful...until we let her out. Paige now wanders freely, spending most of her time in placement room 2 or the sunroom. She is playful, enjoys being petted, and gets along with the other cats. Come meet petite princess Paige-you can't miss the unique white stripe on her nose. PAIGE IS ONE OF OVER 200 CATS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION AT CAT WELFARE.

Story
Carrie is a young lady interested in being social - as long as it’s on her own terms. Her favorite place to hang is on the window perch. She enjoys the company of other cats and dogs and would be a great addition to any family. Carrie's adoption fee is $90. Please complete an online adoption application at petpromise.org/adoption-application if you are interested in adopting Carrie. We do our best to ensure that all of the PetPromise pets and their new owners are the perfect match, so the adoption process includes a mandatory home visit; for that reason, adoptions outside Franklin County, Ohio and contiguous counties may not be possible. PETPROMISE DOES NOT HAVE A SHELTER. Our pets are housed in volunteer foster homes while awaiting adoption. PETPROMISE HAS NO PAID STAFF. The people processing applications are volunteers with full-time jobs and families, so it may be several days before you receive a response to your application.

Story
Buffalo Bill is accepting applications for his forever family. He is one of just over 200 cats currently available for adoption at Cat Welfare.Howdy y'all! I'm Buffalo Bill, the cutest little kitty this side of the Wild West. I'vegot a playful spirit that just can't be tamed, but it's all in good fun - I just loveto play! I'm like a cowboy at high noon - quick on the draw and always ready for a challenge when it comes to drops of water falling from a faucet! My favorite game is catching those elusive droplets as they tumble down. I'll sit and wait, watching each one intently, then throw my paw out to snatch it. It's a game that requires speed, precision, and a true love of adventure - and let me tell ya, I've got all three! I've got big dreams of having a big ol' fountain of my own someday.Truth be told, what I really want is a good ol' home with good folks who will care for and love me. Waddya say partner? Let's ride off into the sunset together! Primary Color: Brown Tiger Secondary Color: White Age: 3yrs 11mths 1wks

Story
Look deep into my eyes human and take me home! Did it work? Were you hypnotized, will you take me home? Hi, I'm Mike! I love to chat and receive lots of head pats. My favorite time is lunchtime, because that's when I get the most attention! I would love to live somewhere that will give me as much affection as possible. I will weave between your legs and make conversation with you when I want some love, so stay on your toes! I can't wait to meet my forever family. I promise I will be the best kitty you've ever had! Oh and if you'd like to adopt a pair of FeLV kitties I am a-okay with that! I get along just fine with all of roommates. Mike is an amazing cat! He loves human interaction and is a real snuggler.Mike is FeLV+. He must be your only cat or live with other FeLV+ kitties. We place our FeLV+ cats as a foster. You provide a loving home and we remain in charge of the cat's medical care including covering all medical expenses.

Story
Kat came to "The League" after she was dumped in a cardboard box on the porch of a local vet clinic. The odd thing... Kat was dumped alongside 5 young kittens that were not her own...After determining that Kat had no interest in fostering these babies, the kittens were taken in by another local partner in rescue. Kat gets us all to herself! Kat is self-sufficient, affectionate and enjoys playtime with her human caretakers. Some of her favorite pastimes include winking in exchange for Churu, playing with feather teaser wands, and lounging in a freshly cleaned litter box. She is most content when she is near you. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdY8bghRKDHDsNpNJdJrlYz0CHSn95E5AlX9MdsfKqL-j5oNg/viewform *Meet and Greets can be scheduled with approved applications only*
