Cats & Kittens
Thank you for choosing Animal Welfare Society as a place to adopt a pet!
We regularly have adults cats of all ages and often have kittens in our Adoption Center. Remember that kittens tend to be adopted very quickly, so if you do not see any, please check back again soon.
We look forward to helping you find your new best friend and supporting you throughout the adoption process. AWS regularly cares for dogs, cats, birds, rabbits and other small animals.
Adoption Center Hours
Tuesday–Sunday
10 a.m.–12:30 p.m.
1:30–4 p.m.
Last adoption meet begins at 3:30 p.m.
Closed Mondays for staff training and extra animal enrichment.
Planning Your Visit
For most pets, no appointment is needed. Stop by during open hours to meet available pets. You do not need to complete paperwork in advance.
Meeting a Pet in Foster Care?
Pets currently in foster care will be noted on their profile. Please call us to schedule an appointment to meet them at AWS.
All adoptions are on a first come, first served basis. These adoption pages are REAL TIME, so as soon as a cat or kitten adoption takes place, the pet “disappears” from the website.
Complete Cat/Kitten Application Online
Save time by completing your adoption application online before you visit. Applications are also available at the Adoption Center, but we encourage you to apply online whenever possible.
To adopt, please stop by the Adoption Center during our open hours: Tuesday – Sunday from 10am – 12:30pm and 1:30pm – 4pm, with the last adoption meet or scheduled appointment at 3:30pm. If the pet is listed as being in foster care, please call first. To learn more about what to expect when adopting from AWS and to view our FAQs, please visit our adoption process page.

Kettle now Cinder
Our boy tuxedo cat was having a hard time after losing his orange sister, doesn’t do well with boys. So we were looking for a sister for him. We ended up finding this little girl and named her cinder. She immediately made herself at home claiming the bed, and the hammock in the cat tree. She gets crazy zoomies and runs around with her brother. Cinder is a cuddly and clingy girl who is extremely vocal and demanding when she wants to play or cuddle to sleep.

Oreo now Ozzie
Ozzie is doing absolutely amazing, and I honestly couldn't be happier with how he's doing! He has become such a special part of my life, and I love him more than words can explain. I love having him around, watching his little personality shine, and getting to spend every day with him. He makes me smile without even trying, and even the smallest things he does make me so happy. I love knowing that he is safe, comfortable, and surrounded by so much love. He isn't just a pet to me; he's family, and I couldn't imagine my life without…

Dreamcatcher now Swirl
Swirl is doing so well! At AWS, she would only let my son pet her, and it just makes sense that she was for his birthday. Now, she will never come out of his room unless you take her out. She has also gained so much weight! We probably will have to put her on a diet, but she’s doing just fine right now. She has also came out and been more open to the rest of us, but she still immediately purrs when my son pets her, but you may have to wait hours for her to purr with…

Willow now Fannie Fae, a.k.a. Patty Cakes
We adopted Fae a little over a year ago. She is so happy in her new home ❤️. She loves us, and she has really warmed up to her puggle brother, Chance. She is a professional biscuit maker; sometimes sessions last up to 20 mins. We love her! Thank you so much ❤️
