Angels With Paws: Cat Rescue and Adoption Center Non-profit 501c3 charity Limited Intake Mostly Cage-Free Cat Rescue & Shelter

Non profit, 501c3 public charity animal rescue & adoption center operating a mostly cage free shelter in Lakewood, CO. Since 2003, we've saved the lives of and found safe, caring homes for over 11,000 animals (mostly cats & kittens at the shelter, but many dogs through fosters). Amazing fact due to our very limited resources, our small building (converted fast food restaurant), no government, corporate, or other group funding, and only a few committed volunteers.

Got a free shoulder? Rufus would love to climb aboard! This affectionate 6-month-old is full of energy and LOVES to play. He would do best in an active household with people or other animals that can provide him with lots of engagement. Rufus is FeLV+, so any other cats in the home would also need to be positive. We can’t fully describe what a fun and sweet little guy this is. Stop in today if you’d like to see for yourself! .

Hello there! Boots here. This shy girl came to AWP with several other strays that were likely abandoned. Although she’s still timid, she’s slowly coming out of her shell and we think her sweet personality will really start to emerge in a forever home. Boots is a year old and would do best in a calm environment (other mellow animals or older kids may be ok). This pretty girl is ready to start a new chapter. Stop in this weekend if you’d like find out more about her! .

Meet sweet Janine. She’s hoping to find a forever home in which she can enjoy unlimited chin scratches! This petite calico will become your new bestie by greeting you when you walk in and then staying close by. She’s 4 years old and in good health, but currently has a perpetual sniffle that may require some additional vet care. A home with other animals or kids would likely be ok. Think this friendly and curious girl might be your match? Janine would love for you to stop by! .

Meet your new sidekick, Indy! This incredibly loving 3-year-old thrives on closeness and connection - he’s not just nearby, he’s with you. Whether it’s curling up against your legs, greeting you at the door or asking (politely, but persistent) for you to turn the faucet on so he can sip like royalty…Indy is always part of the moment! He loves being the center of attention and would do best as the only cat, although he may be ok with another mellow cat after a proper intro. Dogs and kids would likely be ok. If you’d love a close, interactive relationship with your cat, come meet Indy today!.

How cute is this face? Yesterday we featured a Bengal/Maine C**n mix named Bria. Today we’re featuring her sister, Bambi. This sweet girl will also need a home with lots of space for enrichment and exercise. Bambi is shy, but really starting to enjoy some chin and back scratches. She’s approximately a year old and would do best with a cat-savvy adopter who will read her cues and give her time to adjust. Want to find out more about this pretty lady or the Bengal breed? Just give us a call!.
