Merry Christmas to all who celebrate! šŸŽ„
Did your pets get gifts under the tree? Share a photo in the comments—we’d love to see them! 🐾

Meet Berlioz. He opened a present just for him this Christmas. He’s been with us since he was a tiny kitten and, at just 1½ years old, is still waiting for his forever home.

He loved celebrating with his foster family, but his biggest wish is a family of his own. Could that be you? šŸŽšŸ±

Merry Christmas! šŸŽ„

Adele and her brother Bruno. These two siblings are purrfection in our opinion so we’re not sure why they haven’t been adopted yet. We would love to see them adopted together since they have been best of friends since day 1 (both were the runt of their litter) but would be ok separated as long as they had a kitty friend in their new home. Please help us find them a home for the holidays by sharing this post with anybody you know who may be looking to add felines to their home.
We are also at both Morrisville and Apex PetSmart through Christmas. Come see our kitties through the adoption windows. 🐈

A Night Dedicated to Supporting Local Animal Shelters

We’ve added a special night to our Christmas lights display celebration dedicated to supporting local animal shelters.

On Wednesday, December 17th, from 6:00-8;00 PM we invite you to enjoy our Christmas lights display while helping the voiceless pets who are still waiting for their forever homes.

There are two ways you can help—and you’re welcome to do one or both:

Option 1:
Please bring a bag of cat or dog food and drop it off at the gate.
All donations will be distributed to local shelters that are currently struggling.

Option 2:
Purchase a ticket — $10 online or $15 at the gate.
100% of all proceeds from 12/17 will go directly toward helping local shelters cover veterinary bills.

Please help us by sharing this post to raise awareness. During the holidays, animal shelters often receive fewer donations as many are focused on Christmas festivities—yet the needs of these animals remain just as urgent.

Thank you for being the hope of the hopeless and the voice of the voiceless. ā¤ļøšŸ¶šŸ±

Meet Croissant and Eclair.
These two sisters will absolutely melt your heart. (They have two other siblings we will feature another time). Both of these girls are full of purrsonality and will run up to greet you when you enter their space. They love everybody and everything. They will
purr contentedly and are sure to bring a smile to your face. They are just over three months old and ready for adoption. They can be adopted together or with another sibling or a kitty already in their forever home. Send us an application if you are interested in learning more.

*** If you are looking for a feline companion, come visit our adoptable kitties at the Apex and Morrisville locations. So many kitties in need of families.***

Meet Elphaba: The Defying Darling!!

Appearance: Beautiful Tuxedo Cat

Don't let her "green" heritage worry you—this Elphaba is all heart! This curious and brave tuxedo girl is an explorer who faces the world head-on, just like her brother Fiyero. She loves to play and is a reliable friend to her siblings, but her absolute favorite spot is pressed up right next to you on the couch, soaking up all the attention and warmth. Elphaba is wonderful with children and has perfect litter box manners. She’s looking for a family who will celebrate her unique spark and give her a loving home where she can finally be Popular with them! Elphaba would love another kitten friend to be part of her new family.

Meet Mariposa!
This sweet young girl was featured a little while ago, and she’s now waiting at the Apex PetSmart for her forever family to find her. Mariposa is the kind of kitty who simply goes with the flow — as long as she’s near her human, she’s content.

Mariposa’s story is one of strength and second chances. She came to us as a very sick stray, and for a time we weren’t sure she’d pull through. But this girl is a fighter. With dedicated vet care, lots of love, and plenty of TLC, she not only recovered — she thrived. Today, she has a clean bill of health and a bright future ahead.

We estimate Mariposa to be just over a year old. She has lived with both dogs and other cats and gets along well with everyone.

If you’d like to meet this remarkable little survivor, send in an application — let’s make it happen. The greatest gift Mariposa could receive this holiday season is a home of her very own. ā¤ļøšŸ¾

Meet Fiyero!! One of our sweet kittens from our Wicked litter.

Fiyero: The Charming Prince of the Black Cats

Like his namesake, Fiyero is effortlessly charming, friendly, and utterly devoted—though perhaps a little less "vacant"! This little black cat believes that every lap is his to enjoy and every person is his best friend. He is the ultimate cuddle bug and will happily let you hold him like a baby while he purrs away. He’s a social butterfly who gets along great with his siblings, showing a special bond with Elphaba. Fiyero is excellent with children (he’s been around a 4- and 7-year-old) and is a perfect litter box user. If you're looking for a bold, loving companion who will melt into your arms, Fiyero is ready to dance into your life!

The Story of Paw Print’s Volunteers who love Animals....

We are a small group of dedicated volunteers working tirelessly to save as many dogs and cats as responsibly as possible in our state of North Carolina. We pull from shelters all over so these animals will not be euthanized due to overcrowded shelters, in addition to finding many of our adoptable animals off the streets or from dangerous situations. We welcome these wayward animals into our homes and give them all the love we can in addition to medicating, cleaning, holding them and giving them comfort when they need it most. Sadly, we are with many of these animals when they take their final breath, and we cry many tears from heartache.

We also have volunteers who dedicate countless hours each week to TNR (Trap, Neuter & Release) helping to reduce the cat population that has skyrocketed all over North Carolina. TNR is vital in keeping animals OUT of shelters where they will be otherwise killed. We spend every weekend hosting adoption events at various Petsmart locations in Wake County meeting potential adopters. Adopting an animal into a loving and forever home is our mission, and when we adopt one, we can save another......and another......

Please adopt.....if you can’t adopt, consider fostering....if you can’t foster, volunteer. If you can’t volunteer, please donate...no amount is too big or small.....
