Foster‑to‑Adopt

Give a Longer‑Stay Cat a Chance to Shine

Bring home a cat who needs extra time to find their perfect match. Try a supported foster period and finalize the adoption only if it feels right.

Meet Clementine!

Clementine is a sweet cat who came to PAS due to many injuries. Her right front leg was amputated but she responded well to laser treatment and has had a successful healing of all her injuries. Clementine enjoys lap time and loves to be fed churus. She will cuddle up on the couch and sleep.

Meet Pickles!

Pickles is a friendly female cat who may rub up against you to show affection. She likes ear and head rubs and may even let you pet her nose. She is playful; and looks for attention from humans. Pickles loves churu and may take a treat from your hand. She is playful and enjoys laser, string toys, guitar music and watching cat tv.

Meet Winston!

Winston is a shy adult male cat who will need some extra TLC. He is seeking a calm, loving home with an experienced cat owner. Winston may take a little time to warm up, but with patience, gentle care and plenty of TLC, his sweet personality will begin to shine. Once he feels safe, he forms strong bonds and will do slow blinks.

Meet Buddy!

Buddy is a quiet male adult cat with a gentle soul and affectionate loving nature. He can be shy but warms up once he gets to know you and can be very charming. Buddy loves ear rubs and will briefly sit on your lap if you feed him a churu. Buddy likes to rub up against you to show his affection and will follow you around. He will also do a little head butt when you pet him and will allow you to pick him up.

TAKE A TOUR OF PAS
 

Catch a glimpse inside! Here’s a walk-thru view of the Parma Animal Shelter.

 

ANIMAL SPOTLIGHT

Clementine is a sweet cat who came to PAS due to many injuries. Her right front leg was amputated but she responded well to laser treatment and has had a successful healing of all her injuries. She has been in a foster home and spends time in a playpen to help her feel safe. Clementine enjoys lap time and loves to be fed churus. She will cuddle up on the couch and sleep. Clementine gets exhausted easily when she tries walking around and gets a little anxious. She will need an understanding adopter who will let her adjust slowly at her own pace. Clementine would probably be better as an only pet. Fill out an application online on the Parma animal shelter website and not on Adopt a pet. You will receive an email once the application has been approved.

Once membership has been approved volunteers are able to pick up other shifts available through Signup Genius.​


ANIMAL SPOTLIGHT

Winston is a shy adult male cat who will need some extra TLC. He is seeking a calm, loving home with an experienced cat owner. Winston may take a little time to warm up, but with patience, gentle care and plenty of TLC, his sweet personality will begin to shine. Once he feels safe, he forms strong bonds and will do slow blinks. Winston is ideal for someone who understands cats and can give him the space and reassurance he needs to truly thrive. He does enjoy listening to guitar music, stories about cats and cat tv and is playful and likes string toys,lasers and the excercise wheel. Winston loves churu and will greedily eat it when you feed it to him. He does enjoy exploring the main cat room and seems okay with other cats. He might be okay with a dog and would be better with teenage children or young adults. Fill out an application online on the Parma Animal Shelter website and not on Adopt a pet or Petfinder.. You will receive an email once the application has been approved. Winston is available for our foster to adopt program.

ANIMAL SPOTLIGHT

Blue is an adult female cat who has the brightest green eyes and a heart full of love. She can be a little shy when she first meets someone and may take a little time to warm up, but once she does, Blue absolutely melts for head scratches and attention and will follow you wherever you go. Blue is playful and loves chasing the laser and playing with string toys. Her foster mom says she loves to have the zoomies, especially if there are stairs. She loves to be chased so she might be good with an older child. She also likes scratching posts, cat tv and looking out windows. Blue likes hanging around doors so she may be a bit of an escape artist. She would be best suited for a young couple or a single person who can spend time with this gentle and quiet active cat. Blue has been known to sit on laps but doesn`t necessarily like being picked up. Catch her off guard around her middle and she`s usually fine. She should be an only pet and would probably be better in a home with older children due to her getting easily over stimulated. If you`re looking for a sweet, independent cat, then Blue is waiting for you.

ANIMAL SPOTLIGHT

Buddy is a quiet male adult cat with a gentle soul and affectionate loving nature. He can be shy but warms up once he gets to know you and can be very charming. Buddy loves ear rubs and will briefly sit on your lap if you feed him a churu. Buddy likes to rub up against you to show his affection and will follow you around. He will also do a little head butt when you pet him and will allow you to pick him up. Buddy is playful and enjoys chasing the laser, string toys, catnip pierogies, guitar music and loves watching cat tv. He might be okay with a dog and should be okay with older children. Buddy would do well in a quiet home with other cats and an experienced cat owner. He gets along very well with Pickles so we are asking that they be adopted together. He loves running around the main floor of the cat room with Pickles and is hoping to soon be in his new home so he can have more freedom and mobility. Buddy also knows his name and comes when you call him. He also goes back in his cage when he knows it`s time.
