#WhyNotMePets Highlight

Featured Organization

At Purrfect Pals our highest priority is taking in the cats and kittens who need us most… those who other shelters and rescue groups might not have the resources to help. This includes senior cats (though we prefer to call them “vintage”), cats with major medical needs, cats with chronic illnesses (including FIV and Feline Leukemia) and those with behavioral challenges.

Our cat adoption and rehabilitation programs help us place homeless cats, including those with special needs, in loving homes. We believe that every cat is adoptable; some just need more time than others to find the right match. Our ultimate goal is to place them with adopters but some might need a skilled foster family in the meantime. We also have room at our main campus sanctuary where they can stay close to our staff for daily care. Purrfect Pals’ cats will always have a home with us for as long as they need it. The Purrfect Pals Sanctuary is currently home to 100+ of these special cats.

We truly believe that every cat, with or without special needs, matters and is deserving of a forever home. After all, people aren’t perfect. How can we expect our cats to be?

🐕 Help Us Spread the Word  😻

#WhyNotMePets is focused on giving hope to the homeless cats and dogs who have been in the shelters the longest—Those who have been lost in the crowd, and could use an extra helping hand at being seen to a wider audience of potential adopters.

When all the other animals quickly leave the shelters, these are the cats and dogs left behind, asking themselves, “Why not me?”

That’s where you come in!

You can make a significant difference in the lives of these homeless cats and dogs who are eagerly waiting to find their forever homes. ADOPT TODAY! What better way to make a difference than by bringing them to YOUR forever home? Take a moment to explore the profiles below!

If one of these furry friends captures your heart, but there’s no room for a new friend at home, there’s still a simple way you can assist them on their journey. We deeply appreciate it when compassionate individuals like you share their photos and stories with friends and family, as it brings us one step closer to finding loving homes for these wonderful companions!

🐾 #WhyNotMePets Spotlight: Meet Jr. Painkiller 🩶🤍

Jr. Painkiller has been waiting patiently for someone to see the gentle, loving companion she truly is. At 4 years old, this sweet grey-and-white girl is the definition of a quiet cuddle buddy.

She may be a little shy at first, but once she feels safe, she’ll happily curl up in your lap, make biscuits nonstop, and soak up all the head rubs you can give. Jr. Painkiller loves peaceful days spent birdwatching from the window and softly “chatting” at them.

If your purrfect evening includes a cozy blanket, a calm companion, and endless purrs, Jr. Painkiller might just be your match. 🐱✨

Please share to help this deserving girl finally find the loving home she’s been waiting for. 💙

How to Join Today!

The campaign currently focuses on Washington’s cats and dogs that have been homeless one year or more OR those with some special needs who need a little extra help to be adopted; they may be elderly, have behavior or medical needs, aren’t thriving in the shelter environment, and those that make up a large percentage of the shelter population, such as bully breeds or black cats.

We would love to help!
