Adopt, Share, and Care – Help Our Fur Family Find a Home!

Dear Friends,

Adopt, Share, Save a Life As we welcome spring and the excitement of kitten season, our shelter is filled with many wonderful adult cats and dogs eagerly waiting for their forever homes. You can be a hero today by sharing our adoptable pets on social media! Just click the icon on any pet’s story on our adopt-a-pet petlist. One share could be the key to a new beginning.

Celebrating Our Community Impact This year promises to be busy and fulfilling. Your ongoing support helps us keep our guests safe in a loving home-away-from-home as they await their permanent families. A huge thank you to Subaru for letting us present our pups at the Greater Cleveland Auto Show—your support helped our volunteers connect with wonderful new families.

A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Champions We are deeply grateful to our supporters, the City of Parma, and our incredible volunteers. Your generosity enables us to provide shelter and care for strays, surrendered, and abandoned animals—many of whom require medical attention and foster care before they find their forever homes. A special thank you goes out to those who open their hearts and homes to foster animals on their journey to recovery.

    • Make quick and secure donations via credit cards, PayPal, or by mail.

    • Fill out a volunteer application on our website to join our team.
  • Foster Care:
    • With kitten season fast approaching, we urgently need foster parents for special-needs kittens, especially those who are bottle-fed or too small for early spay/neuter.

    • Interested in fostering? Call 440-885-8014 and let us know your area of interest. We also offer foster-to-adopt opportunities for both cats and dogs.

Adopt Today for a Brighter Tomorrow Visit us during open hours to meet our adorable pets, or expedite your adoption process by filling out an online application beforehand. With a pre-approved application, you might be able to adopt on the same day. We encourage you to bring all family members for a heartfelt meet-and-greet—because it’s all about finding the best home, not just first come, first serve.

Thank you for your continued support in helping us rescue, rehome, and educate others about animal welfare. Together, we are making a meaningful difference in the lives of animals in need.

With warm regards,

Parma Animal Shelter Volunteers

ANIMAL SPOTLIGHT

Wonder is a senior male cat who is visually impaired. We believe he can see shadows and seems to do well walking around as long as he is supervised. Wonder is very sweet and affectionate and loves to cuddle. He would probably be best as an only pet due to his limited eyesight. A one level home or apartment would be preferable for Wonder. Fill out an application online. You will receive an email once the application has been approved.

ANIMAL SPOTLIGHT
Meet Tamarind! Tamarind is a young female adult cat who has a sweet soul and a zesty spirit. Her name might be tangy, but her personality is pure sweetness when you get to know her! Once she feels safe, her affectionate side blossoms! She is friendly and loves nose pets and gives kitty kisses. Tamarind likes things on her terms and will let you know what she wants. She is a professional biscuit baker and purrs when you pet her. Tamarind may do a slow blink if she trusts you. She likes exploring the main cat room and is becoming more confident and will rub up against you for attention but seems to need the security of the adoption room to show how affectionate she is. Tamarind may need a little extra TLC when she gets adopted but is starting to let you pick her up and hold her. Who knew she`d be a lap cat!! Tamarind also comes running to greet you. Just imagine her greeting you at the door when you come home! She says now would be a good time to adopt her. Tamarind is looking for a forever home where she can feel secure, cherished ,and adored. If you`re ready to welcome her into your life, Tamarind is waiting for you. She might be okay with another cat or dog and should be fine with older children. Fill out an application online. You will receive an email once the application has been approved.
