My husband and I have been looking for cat companions for a while, and the folks at PAWS Old City…read morehave been very helpful and patient with us! They continually answer our questions and welcome us to meet more of their cats. We adopted our first cat and then a kitten from foster homes through PAWS - they made the process very simple for us! One note is that it may have helped we also are in Old City, so it was easy to come in person and get a response in case we did not hear back via email. We really appreciate the team at PAWS and how they're willing to support our pets, even after we adopted them! I would recommend checking them out if you're looking to adopt and get approved for adoption!

I was only talking about the red head woman who checked me out who seemed patient and informative. The rest of staff was horrible and discriminatory. Please my review on their Yelp. No one has reviewed them in over a year so if they take it down this is what I posted today: "Denied adoption of a beautiful kitty on 12/6/24 simply because the kitty had Feline HIV. I believe her name was Snow and she was grey. The women who denied her adoption to me had a less feminine look and it felt as if she was trying to intimidate me or coerce me to violence even though I showed no aggression. The blond woman who was at front desk when you first walk in got up and walked away from the desk without saying a work to me during checkout. I feel she was very disrespectful yet I remained calm and cooperative. I would hate to feel as though I was discriminated against for my race for being more "aggressive" as I did not discriminate against the brunette woman who denied me my first pick kitten for her possible sexuality. Neither racial or sexual orientation discrimination is right yet I felt racial on my end with no disrespect to either women. The red head woman who had to finish my checkout was much kinder and made me feel better about adopting my second choice Shadow. Both the brunette and blonde seemed much nicer to the Caucasian couple that came in as I was leaving who there to pick up foster kittens. Everyone should be treated equally whether race, sexual orientation or disability. They also should not be denied an adoption due to feline hiv as it is very treatable. No matter who you are you should not support this behavior nor allow it to continue. Please report any notes of this even if you are on the fairer side of treatment. "

Yay City Kitties! I adopted a cat from this group (a local non-profit, no-kill cat rescue) last…read moreyear. I have many, many good things to say but will try to limit the list... Thing 1: the cats! I was genuinely impressed by how well they take care of their rescues. Every stray they pick up gets top-notch vet care, including spay/neuter and screening/treatment for health issues, and is placed in a loving foster home (as in, a real person's home). It's amazing how scared, pathetic-looking cats get transformed into healthy, friendly ones by the time they're judged ready to adopt out. The $75 adoption fee covers all of this care, and it's honestly worth it. Thing 2: the support. Because each cat's "foster parent" knows the cat's personality, City Kitties is good at suggesting matches for what you're looking for (eg, playful cat always up in your business, quiet lapcat, etc) and what your home is like (other pets, etc). They really care where their cats end up and both screen potential adopters carefully and make sure you know what the cat is like. Before you adopt, you get to 1) read cute online-dating-like profiles about the cats and 2) visit them in their foster homes. And because each cat has been screened by a vet, you're likely to know about any ongoing health issues before deciding anything. Also: Even after you adopt, City Kitties is great about being available to help with concerns or questions. I've asked about routine health issues and even about cat drama when introducing the new little cat to my resident cat, and they've always been very nice and helpful. Thing 3: the people. Oh man, are they great. You'd never guess it from how professional and organized they are, but City Kitties is just a small group of people in West Philly, who started this and keep doing it as volunteers because they care. (The business address up there is for someone's house!) You can feel really good about where your money's going if you donate, and their benefit events are genuinely fun even if you're not at all a crazy cat-lady/cat-gent. Thing 4: the cute. http://www.youtube.com/citykitties How can you not get behind that? Such a good group. Adopt, foster, or donate if you can!

The rooms are organized so that cats are in the best and most comfortable environment for their age and personalities. The staff is so kind and knowledgeable about the cats. We adopted two kittens here and were given cute little blankets to take home with them, and all the information we could possibly need for pet care and vet visits. The adoption fee was super reasonable considering the kitties came fully up to date on all their shots, spayed/neutered, and microchipped. Can't say enough good things about Kitty Cottage!

While browsing Petfinder one day at work, I happened upon a cute little tuxedo cat named Bouncer. He seemed absolutely perfect for us and we decided that he would finally be the one. Kathy at Green Street Rescue is great to work with! She was very quick to respond to our emails and to approve our application. She did her research on us too, which made me even more comfortable with the organization (for the sake of the kitties!). Even though we had some issues making a time to meet and pick up Bouncer, she worked with our schedule and made time to have us come over. One of the best things about Green Street is that Kathy let us have a trial period - we didn't need to pay her as soon as we picked him up. She made sure we took him home and that we were comfortable, he was comfortable, and that it was a match. Luckily, he's become a great addition and we're very happy. Next time I have a friend looking to adopt a cat, I will recommend them to Green Street Rescue.

Is the mom and baby in your home? WHERE are you located? no one can help if they don't know what part of the city you live in. We can loan you a trap to trap the male cat and get him neutered and vaccinated and then return but the MOM needs to be spayed asap and the mom and kitten both need RABIES vaccines asap. Do you drive?

And the mother is still around with a grey baby.
