Prancing Paws Animal Rescue

We are Prancing Paws Animal Rescue. We are a small no-kill animal shelter located in far northeast of Philadelphia. We are not a shelter and do not have a primary location. We run our rescue out of foster homes. We are currently a private rescue and our non-profit status is pending. Any and all donations are welcomed and we are grateful for them. Money is especially needed at this time to help defer our medical costs.

Our main focus is cats, but we try to assist all animals in need. We mainly rescue stray and abandoned cats. We provide them with medical treatment, food, and shelter. We only adopt our cats out to loving and responsible forever homes. All cats are fixed, FIV and FeLV tested, UTD with shots, and flea and worm treated before they are adopted out. All paperwork is provided. If you are interested in adopting a cat/kitten please contact us and we will email you an adoption application.
