Grateful Paws NJ We are a collection of volunteers helping to save stray and abandoned cats in northern and central NJ. We rely 100% on donations.

Thank you to everyone who reached out! We are good on this request.

We are looking for 3-4 adopters who are willing to share their adoption success story as part of a Master's project for one of our current foster moms. This project will help raise awareness of adopting through local rescues and shelters vs breeders. If you're interested, please DM us.

MULTIPLE adoption applications have come in for Bandhit! We are no longer accepting application for him at this time.

Bandhit is a 12 year old pure bred Savannah cat that was purchased from a breeder when he was a kitten. His owners are moving and can't take him with them so he has two weeks to find a new home (please refrain from comments about this as it will just clog up our notifications and we may miss someone who can help - we all know giving up your pets for moving is not a good reason).

Bandhit has happily lived with both dogs and cats. He is neutered and up to date with vaccinations. His current owners do take him for annual vet visits and he has been very well taken care of.

Foster to adopt or adoption options available. We have such a soft spot for these seniors. Please DM us or email [email protected] if you think you can help.

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday. As a volunteer-run organization, we rely entirely on donations from the public. We do not receive any government assistance and do not have regular donors.

Please consider donating to our cause to save stray and abandoned cats across New Jersey and support our Seniors for Seniors program in which we pay for all food, litter and veterinary care for seniors looking for a cat companion but are living on government assistance and have very limited funds.

Preston (male), Riley (female), Quinn (female), Avery (female) and Payton's (female) owner passed away and they are being temporarily held by a friend of the family. However, the friend is moving and was never planning on keeping all 5 cats long term. All are 10 years old and have grown up together. In great health and were well taken care of.

We are looking for fosters who can take 1-2 (we don't expect anyone to be able to take all 5 cats) or adopters looking for calm, friendly, older cats (we will waive adoption fee). Fostering senior cats is extremely meaningful. They are easy to care for and all of these guys are super friendly and social.

DM us if you think you can help.

Update #3: After a few days, Mushy seems to be recovered and it going to the bathroom on his own

Update #2: THANKFULLY diagnostics did not show a blockage. However, he did need an e***a. He was discharged and sent home. Total bill was over $1,100. Unfortunately we don’t even have that much in our bank account (paid via personal credit card) so really could use all the donations we can get. For those of you who donated, Robert is very thankful and his Veteran’s Day was salvaged.

Update: He’s at the hospital now. Diagnostics alone are being quoted at $800 and that doesn’t include treatment.

Mushy, who is being rushed to the hospital now, is being fostered in a permanent foster arrangement by a military veteran as part of our Seniors for Seniors program. Under our Seniors for Seniors program we pay for all supplies and vet care for the animal.

It’s Veteran’s Day and the poor guy is freaking out about his cat and rushing him to the hospital. Mushy hasn’t pooped in 2 days and stopped eating and drinking. We fear this will be a very expensive vet visit.

Mushy’s dad not only served in the military but found himself homeless after his service. He has recently been put up in veteran housing but does not have a dime to his name, which is one of the reasons he is under our program. Mushy has been instrumental in healing his PTSD.

In honor of Veteran’s Day, can you please consider donating some money towards the vet care? He just wants the best for Mushy. Truly no amount is too small.

Let’s turn this Veteran’s Day around for Mushy’s dad.

ADOPTED

We just found out Luna has a deadline because her owner is leaving the country. Please share! Foster to adopt or just foster available as well!

07/11/2024

Update: Foster found! Thank you, Hayden, for offering your home to her.

HER DEADLINE IS MONDAY

This girl has wandered into someone's basement and the homeowner wants her out. A concern citizen posted flyers everywhere around town and nobody has claimed her.

She is running out of time before she is kicked out into the streets. She is ear tipped so she is obviously spayed.

We can not do a single thing without a foster. Fostering costs you nothing but love and time. Save a life today. We get 2-3 emails or messages EVERY SINGLE DAY like this. We can’t be an animal rescue organization without physical places to put the animals.

Apply to foster at https://forms.gle/44XRSeHK7AULAstd6

UPDATE: Intakes are closed for the rest of the year. We'll be back up and running in Spring 2025

Three little kittens are looking for their new homes! They started their lives in a backyard in Jersey City, but let's find them a warm home for them to call their own.

Ozzy (mostly gray) is the heartthrob of the group! With his striking good looks and calm demeanor, he’s always ready to cuddle up for quality time. This handsome fella thrives on love and affection, making him the perfect companion for anyone looking to add a touch of warmth to their home.

Meet Olive, the shy but oh-so-sweet sister! This pint-sized cutie may take a little time to warm up, but once she does, her affectionate nature shines through. Olive loves to snuggle with her brother Ozzy, and their bond is truly special. Together, they create the perfect pair for a cozy cuddle session.

Opie (gray with mostly white on the front) is the lively spirit of the bunch! Full of energy and curiosity, he dives into every new adventure with gusto. Independent and brave, Opie brings a playful spark to your day and will keep you entertained with his antics. He’s always on the lookout for his next big discovery!

Ozzy and Olive share a particular bond, so they must be adopted together. Opie is an active kitten, so she will need a playmate in her new home.

PROPERTY FOUND

Albert is a semi-feral cat whose home was demolished. He was just neutered and vaccinated and is going to have to sit in a crate until he has somewhere to go.

We really need cat lovers who live on quiet streets, in stray-friendly towns to start thinking about hosting a feral cat.

Feral cats provide a lot of benefits, specifically rodent control. Homeowners host feral cats to protect their gardens and outdoor structures from critters.

There is a 4-week acclimation period and, like a house cat, you need to provide food and fresh water daily.

Albert is absolutely adorable. Who wouldn’t want that face greeting them when they leave the house?

DM us or email [email protected] for more info. Transportation and acclimation crate provided.

Update: Freddie Mercury was adopted!

Ada Wong's adoption is pending!

We have a select few cats who have been in foster care for a while and deserve to find their new homes. We are also a foster-based rescue and rely on our fosters to help the next batch of cats.

Their names and descriptions can be found in their individual images and captions. All of them are spayed/neutered, fully vetted, and up to date with their vaccines.

To apply, go to gratefulpawsnj.com/adopt
