Adopt a Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat)

Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) Cat

Emilio the Cat needs a home

**Emilio is part of a bonded pair with her sister, Deliah. They wish to go to their forever home together.**


Hello! My name is Emilio, I get mistaken for a boy a lot because of it but I assure you, I am a girl. I used to be the smallest in my litter, the runt if you will, but I outgrew my siblings! My foster mom says I have a very small meow and it's cute but I think she's wrong, I have a lion's roar. She also says I like wand toys, tag and hide & seek. I also like to nibble on my human because I love them a lot. Foster mom says I am very calm when I'm being held and I like cuddles. I like people and would do well with any age range except infants, I think. I don't know about dogs yet, I have to face those guys to know. But! It would be great if I could be adopted with my sister because she protects me and I love her. If you have any questions and would like to meet me, please contact mama. 


Name: Emilio
Age: 4 months

PAWS, the Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society, is a 501(c)3 non-profit animal rescue organization. PAWS pulls at-risk animals from the City of Philadelphia's animal control shelter and adopts them out from several locations: our Old City adoption center (2nd and Arch Streets), our Northeast Adoption Center (1810 Grant Avenue); our Wellness Clinic at 2900 Grays Ferry Avenue; our adoption locations at the South Philly and Cottman Avenue PetSmart stores; and, our network of foster homes.

PAWS is dedicated to saving the lives of Philadelphia's homeless, abandoned and unwanted animals and is working to make Philadelphia a city in which every healthy and treatable pet is guaranteed a home.
