Story
The cat is roughly three years of age, I took them in as a favor to my now ex finance and unfortunately, I just cannot keep the cat as I move for work.He is very slow to warm up, has always been this way since they got him as a kitten. Once warmed up they enjoy kneading and lap sitting, window watching, and has a general loving attitude. They have never been an outside cat, have always been kept inside and have been well kept and fed.They were in a house with 3 other cats and a dog before they came with me, they are very sweet but unfortunately, I cannot keep them and need to find a loving home for them ASAP.

Percy is the best cat and I’m heartbroken over this decision. After 2 years the dog and him do not get along. He will do best in a home by himself or maybe a small dog that will not run after him all day!

Story
See Peanut`s Transformation! From the Streets of Detroit to Lap Cat Just one day before February’s 2025 bitter cold set in, Peanut’s life changed forever. Peanut was rescued when a caretaker contacted a PAAW volunteer about a cat that started coming around that had a wound on the neck and was gurgling when breathing. The plan was to trap him and get him to a vet but Peanut didn`t show up the next morning, so a PAAW volunteer searched the neighborhood and managed to trap him just in time.We had to hold Peanut until we could get a vet appointment, but in just weeks of him being trapped, treated and neutered at the vet, Peanut who was dirty and a beat up tom cat who came in down and out, with an old abscess wound on his neck has had an INCREDIBLE transformation with his foster! Turns out with just a little bit of time, Peanut is a sweet and affectionate guy! Peanut likes being brushed and petted, soaking up every bit of love he missed for so long. He is already using a scratching post. Peanut`s foster and the volunteer that trapped him have given him a second chance at life, and now he’s ready for a forever home where he’ll never have to fight for survival again!The vet said Peanut tested FIV+, probably from all his year of being on the streets. We don’t know what Peanut has been through living outside, but we do know he deserves a great home with all the food he can eat! We are hoping he may be just the guy to add to your family! ***********FIV+ cats need love too! FIV is species specific, meaning only cats can be infected. FIV+ cats can live just as long as non-FIV cats. If introduced properly, FIV and Non-FIV cats can live happy and healthy lives together. The virus is very frail and can only live outside the body for a few seconds, and requires serious physical interaction, like deep bite wounds. Normal social interactions, such as grooming, sharing food and water bowls and litter boxes have no known risk of transmission. Peanut~born~4/2/18_____A special adoption fee is offered for FIV+ cats and can give you and the cat years of love and companionship.Please use these links for our:Online Adoption Application: paawarren.org/adopt/adoption-application-formWebsite for details, info: paawarren.orgFIV+ info: paawarren.org/pet-resources/fiv-positive-cats***PAAW’s Cat Café is now open in Farmington Hills!

Hi! I am momma Patches! My foster mom says I am a beautiful calico who is such a great mom! I was rescued with my 4 kittens and momma Sunshine and her 3 kittens from outside in Detroit. We have been taking care of and nursing all 7 kittens together. Our 2 little families get along so well! I love all the kittens! I am ready for my furever home as my kittens are ready to be adopted into their forever homes! I would do great alone or with one or some of the kittens or even with momma Sunshine. The rescue is wondering if we may actually be sisters or mother/daughter. I look forward to meeting you and finding my forever home!

Story
Hi, my name is Helios! I’m a bright and handsome orange tabby named after the Greek god of the sun, and I’m ready to bring some warmth and light into your life! I may have once roamed the streets of Detroit, but thanks to a PAAW volunteer, I was trapped for TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return). Turns out, I had a little surprise for everyone—I’m actually a super friendly guy who loves people and pets! So instead of going back to the streets, I got a second chance at finding a loving forever home.Living on the streets meant food was hard to come by, so I’m still a bit of a hungry boy. I get really excited for mealtime and may give you my best “feed me” eyes—it’s a look that’s pretty hard to resist! But now that I know food will always be there, I’m learning to slow down and savor my meals.While I was out there fending for myself, I also picked up FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus). It might sound scary, but don’t worry—it’s not! FIV simply affects my immune system a little, but with regular vet care and a healthy lifestyle, I can live a long, happy life just like any other cat. And guess what? FIV+ and FIV- cats can safely live together! FIV is only transmitted through deep bite wounds, which is rare in a calm, friendly household like the one I dream of finding!I’m a laid-back, affectionate boy who loves scratches and snuggles. Whether I’m soaking up the sun in a cozy window spot or curling up next to you for some purr-filled pets, I’ll be your loyal companion!Thanks for reading about me! I hope to meet my forever family soon! FIV+ cats need love too! FIV is species specific, meaning only cats can be infected. FIV+ cats can live just as long as non-FIV cats. If introduced properly, FIV and Non-FIV cats can live happy and healthy lives together.
