My name is Velvet because of my beautiful shiny coat! My sister, Venus, and I were surrendered to PAWS-OK with 3 other cats by a cat-loving couple who were being threatened with eviction because there were "too many cats". Honestly we five and five others (that PAWS-OK helped get spayed and neutered, is a bit much for a small 1 bedroom apartment! I brought a surprise with me to my foster mom - RINGWORM! All five of us had to be treated with some good tasting medicine and now I am so pretty, all my beautiful fur has grown back. I am known as the 'social butterfly" of my group and love people and cats too. A home with another friendly cat or two would suit me just fine!
PAWS-OK is a small foster based non profit rescue operating in the OKC area since 2008. All our cats and kittens are spayed or neutered, tested for feline leukemia and FIV, up-to-date on their vaccines, litterbox trained and fostered in a volunteers home. We are committed to placing our rescues in the most loving homes that we can, regardless of how long it takes. Our kittens are kept with their mothers for as long as possible and not offered for adoption until they are at least 16 weeks of age. A handful of our available felines can be seen in the PetSmart Adoption Center in Rockwell Plaza (8357 N Rockwell) during normal store hours.
If you are interested in adopting a new cat from PAWS-OK for your family, please go to our Adoption Request form at https://form.jotform.com/pawsokrescue/adoption-request-form. Your Request will be processed by a PAWS Volunteer who may reach out to you via email to clarify your information if needed. Processing normally takes 2-3 business days. If your request is approved, an Adoption Counselor will contact you to set up a phone interview or a time to meet with them at our Adoption Center. If we cannot help you, we may redirect you to other sources for a cat that may better fit your situation.
Thank you for looking at our available cats and kittens. If you have any questions, please reach out for us at pawsokrescue@gmail.com.
