⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: PETFINDER ACCOUNT SECURITY ALERT⚠️

Please Read Before Inquiring About Adoption


We want to make potential adopters aware that Paws 4 Life Animal Rescue's Petfinder account has recently been compromised. Unauthorized individuals have gained access to our account, changed our rescue's contact information, and added animal listings that are not associated with our organization.


We have reported this situation to Petfinder and are currently awaiting assistance in securing our account.


Until this issue is resolved, please be aware of the following:

  • Paws 4 Life is a cat rescue. Any dog listings appearing under our organization on Petfinder are not associated with us.
  • Contact email addresses displayed on our Petfinder profile or individual animal listings may be unauthorized.
  • Please do not send adoption fees, deposits, or personal information to anyone claiming to represent our rescue without first verifying their identity with us.
  • If you have recently submitted an adoption inquiry through Petfinder and have not heard from us, please contact us directly.

How to Contact Us Safely

For all legitimate adoption inquiries, please email us directly at:

adopt@paws4lifect.com or info@paws4lifect.com

Our official website is www.paws4lifect.com.


We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience this situation may cause. Protecting our cats, potential adopters, and supporters is extremely important to us.


Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to resolve this issue.

Adoption Process

Thank you for considering adoption through Paws 4 Life Animal Rescue. Our goal is to help each cat find a safe, loving home that is the right fit for their personality, needs, and future family.

Not sure which cat is right for you? That’s okay! Submit an application and our team will help guide you toward the cat or kitten who may be the best match for your home, lifestyle, and experience level.


How It Works

1. Submit an adoption application
Tell us about your home, current pets, experience, and what type of cat you are hoping to adopt.

2. Application review
Our volunteers carefully review applications to help determine whether the cat you applied for may be a good fit. We may verify veterinary history, landlord approval when applicable, and references.

3. Adoption conversation
If your application appears to be a possible match, an adoption coordinator will contact you to discuss your application, answer questions, and talk more about the cat you are interested in.

4. Match and next steps
If approved, we will help coordinate the next steps for meeting and adopting your new family member.

5. Adoption day
Approved adopters will review and sign our adoption contract before the adoption is finalized.

Submitting an application does not guarantee approval or adoption of a specific cat. Because every cat is different, our goal is always to make the best match for both the adopter and the cat.


Adoption Donations

We try to keep our adoption donations as low as possible. Between food, supplies, and veterinary care, the adoption donation rarely covers the full cost of caring for an animal before adoption.


Each animal’s adoption donation is listed on their individual profile. Most cat and kitten adoption donations are $300 or less, although fees may vary depending on the animal’s age, medical needs, length of time in rescue, sponsorships, grants, breed, or other individual circumstances. Occasionally, adoption donations may be higher for dogs, purebred cats, or special situations.

Adoption donations help offset a portion of each animal’s care, which may include a veterinary exam, spay/neuter surgery, age-appropriate vaccines, microchip with lifetime registration, deworming, flea/tick treatment if needed, and FeLV/FIV testing for cats. Dogs receive age-appropriate veterinary care and testing as applicable.


Kitten Adoption Policy

Please note: we adopt kittens in pairs. We will adopt a solo kitten to a home that already has a young, active cat who can be an appropriate companion.
