Since PAWS opened this urban, cat-only adoption center in 1997 (originally in the Greenwood neighborhood), we have found homes for more than 21,000 cats and kittens through this location. PAWS Cat City is located in Seattle’s University District. PAWS collaborates with government agencies, community stakeholders, other animal welfare agencies and veterinary professionals to create a “safety net for animals.” We rely on hundreds of volunteers in all aspects of our work including caring for the animals, assisting customers, promoting the animals for adoption, and providing temporary foster care. More than 117,000 Seattle-area homes have been enriched by the adoption of a companion animal from PAWS. There are no time limits – regardless of age, health or behavior needs, every adoptable dog and cat has as long as it takes to find their home. No healthy, adoptable animal is euthanized at PAWS. Through our Re-homing Service we accept cats and dogs from guardians who can no longer keep them. These relationships mean we can take in animals from emergency situations such as natural disasters or hoarding cases. We are also proud to be a receiving agency for the HSUS’s Emergency Placement Partner program and ASPCA’s Field Investigations and Response Team.

This effort helps animals at risk of euthanasia to have the best chance at finding loving, permanent homes in the animal-friendly Northwest. PAWS welcomes cats and dogs from shelters and rescue groups in areas overwhelmed with homeless animals through our Placement Partner Program. To help keep animals in their homes, we offer animal behavior resources. We keep stray pets safe until we can reunite them with their families and help people find their missing cats and dogs. Our services include a shelter in Lynnwood, a satellite cat adoption center at PAWS Cat City in Seattle’s University District, and a spay and neuter clinic.

PAWS cares for more than 4,000 dogs and cats each year, provides training and education to strengthen the human/animal bond, and works to end animal cruelty and overpopulation.įrom our beginning in 1967, PAWS has maintained our vision of a community where animals are treated with respect, every pet has a permanent and loving home, and companion animals are spayed or neutered.

So, if you are looking for a companion who is smart and good and affectionate and playful-THAT'S ME! Let's meet soon.

Do you like training dogs? If yes, I catch on quickly (especially if cheese is involved) I already know sit, down, drop it, and shake. I really love to run, so we could go jogging together or just enjoy long walks. I am excited to go on walks and am making great progress on learning all the good leash manners.

If you have a fenced yard, we can play there, and I'll make you laugh when I get the zoomies after doing my business. I love to play with my toys (and you)-I like balls and ropes and anything else you want to share with me. I like to cuddle, too and will sit by you to get petted, and give you a lick to let you know I'm happy (have you ever seen a dog lick in slow-motion? I can do it!). I am well-behaved in the house (and house-trained of course), and I rarely bark.
