Adopt a Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat)

Domestic Short Hair / Mixed (short coat) Cat

Gideon the Cat needs a home

 Meet Gideon, a handsome and well-behaved cat!  This poor little guy was so stressed out at the shelter that he would hide all the time, but he has started to come out of his shell from the moment that he arrived at his foster home.  While he still takes cover in the closet if he hears any scary noises, he loves being petted and playing with catnip toys. A calm, adult-only environment with no other pets will allow Gideon to continue to blossom into a confident and loving companion.


Name:  Gideon
Age: 3

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.
