TIGGER Hey there, I'm Tigger, your purr-fectly shy but snuggly friend! Right now, I'm getting all cozy in my foster home, but what I'm really dreaming of is a forever home with a special spot just for me! I'm a bit on the shy side, but don't let that fool you-I'm all heart under these stripes.

Story
Meet Tandy, a lovely 2-year-old Domestic Shorthair with a soft, uniquely patterned agouti coat that shimmers in the light. Tandy’s story began when she was caught in a humane trap and brought to PAC on September 3, 2025, along with her tiny kittens. She was sent to foster on September 23, but the stress of all the sudden changes proved to be too much — she stopped caring for her babies. Thankfully, every single one of them survived and has since been adopted into loving homes. ??Now it’s Tandy’s turn to find hers. She’s blossomed into a sweet, gentle, and playful cat who absolutely loves the company of other felines. Tandy feels most comfortable around kind, easygoing kitties and will need to be adopted with another gentle cat to help her feel secure and confident.She’s the perfect mix of soft-spoken affection and quiet playfulness — a beautiful reminder that even after a rocky start, patience and kindness can help any cat bloom.

Meet Elsa Elsa is a beautiful 2-year-old white little girl who has been through more than her fair share and is still nothing but love. She was originally surrendered on 7/16/25 due to an overcrowded home. She was later adopted, but sadly returned after experiencing seizures.Since then, Elsa has been in a foster home, where only one seizure has been recorded, and she has been absolutely adored by everyone there. Kid approved Cat approved Dog approvedElsa loves to run zoomies and chirp her way right into your heart. She’s playful, sweet, and full of personality.Her only special consideration is her seizures — which are currently being managed with medication. It’s simple and stress-free: just mixed into a little canned food or Churu, and she eats it right up.Elsa is ready for a loving, understanding home where she can finally settle in and stay.

Meet Luna, our sassy success story in motion! Luna was surrendered to PAC on March 17, 2025, after her rescuer realized their own cats weren’t too thrilled about sharing space. This 5-year-old Domestic Shorthair came to us tipping the scales at 21 pounds, with a body condition score of 9/9 — which meant everything, even moving, was uncomfortable.Her previous person described her as playful, cuddly, and even fond of baths and catnip. But at the shelter, poor Luna wasn’t feeling her best. She barely moved, had plenty to say about her situation, and wasn’t shy about letting us know that being handled was not her favorite thing — mostly because it hurt.So Luna headed off to foster care for “Weight Loss Boot Camp!” And wow, what a transformation! As of January 2nd 2026, she’s down to a healthy 14.2 pounds and feeling fabulous. She can now leap onto the bed, race up and down the hallway, and she’s even been caught perched on the fireplace mantel — or blocking the stairs entirely to remind the dogs who’s really in charge.Luna currently lives in foster with both dogs and cats, and she handles it all like a queen. She enjoys supervising the household, choosing her favorite spots to lounge, and occasionally reminding everyone who runs the place.She’s still the same confident, loving girl her first person described — now just a lot more mobile! Luna is proof that with a little patience (and maybe fewer snacks), second chances can look this good.

Story
Hi, I’m Leo. I’m a grey tabby, and I like to think of myself as a calm, thoughtful kind of guy. I’m a little shy at first, and new places can feel a bit overwhelming, so I might seem quiet or reserved when you first meet me. But once I feel safe, I show my true self — I’m really sweet, gentle, and just want to be near the people I trust. I enjoy calm moments and quiet companionship. I may not rush into cuddles right away, but if you sit with me and give me time, I’ll slowly come around. I love soft pets, gentle words, and being in a peaceful space where I can relax. Once I feel comfortable, I can be affectionate in subtle ways — a soft purr, a gentle nuzzle, or curling up next to you while you read or watch TV. I’m looking for a patient, understanding home where I can feel safe and take things at my own pace. I might need a little time to open up, but when I do, I make a loyal, loving companion. I promise that with a bit of patience, I’ll show you just how wonderful a quiet, gentle boy I can be.🐾💛

Story
Meet Alvin. Alvin is a gentle soul who’s having a very hard time in the shelter. He spends most of his days hiding, overwhelmed by the noise and constant change—but behind that fear is a cat who desperately wants to feel safe. You can see it in the way he quietly watches, hoping for someone patient enough to give him a chance. Alvin needs a calm home and a family with extraordinary patience—people who will let him move at his own pace and celebrate every small step he takes. He won’t be an instant lap cat, but the trust he’ll eventually place in you will be one of the most meaningful bonds you’ll ever build. If your heart has room for a cat who needs understanding more than anything, Alvin is waiting for you. He’s not asking for much—just safety, kindness, and someone who believes in him.
