Featured Feline:

Our feature cat for Fall is Suzie. She is very loving kitty and a great explorer! She loves to be out of her cage and exploring all the time. She like to be the boss of the shelter and she gets away with it. She is very beautiful and loves to get all the attention. Come and check Suzie out.

News:

In the fall of 2003, a group of caring and committed shelter volunteers saw a need for a rescue and adoption center.
ANGELS WITH PAWS opened it's doors in February 2004.

About ANGELS WITH PAWS:

ANGELS WITH PAWS is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to finding loving families for homeless animals and shelter for pets when their owners can no longer care for them! Our goal "to build a sanctuary in Colorado that will provide a safe and happy life for animals in need". Angels With Paws offers an alternative to the classic "cage sheltering" by placing the animals in warm and comfortable foster homes until they get adopted. When the cats are ready for adoption, they are brought into the facility by the foster parents and housed in four cozy rooms. Angels With Paws works with other animal welfare organizations to reduce the pet overpopulation in our neighborhoods and to find a loving family for any adoptable animal. Our "limited intake" policy: any animal with a good quality of life deserves a chance to find a family willing to love it and care for it; space, age or behavior will not be considered barriers in finding the perfect home for any healthy animal.

Donations:

We have an ongoing wishlist but we always seem to be short of
CANNED CAT FOOD & KITTY LITTER.

We need all sorts of kitten supplies including canned kitten food, dry kitten food, and litter. If you are cleaning out your baby stuff, drop off your blankets you no longer need for your baby to our shelter. Our baby kittens will be very appreciative!

Education:

ANGELS WITH PAWS promotes responsible pet ownership with every adoption. We try to educate our clientele regarding cat specific issues: declawing, allergies, other animals in the household, litter box concerns and inside vs. outside.

Adopting a Friend:

If you are interested in any of our kitties that you see on PETFINDER.COM, please call (303-274-2264) to confirm availability.
