We feel we must address the growing trend of people abandoning cats in our parking lot. Please understand that we want to provide the best care possible to all of the cats in our care. Providing adequate space per cat to keep stress levels low and feeding them good quality food are key to keeping them in good health, and getting medical care when needed is a priority. We can't do that if we take in more cats. It's hard to say no to cats in need, but it isn't fair to the cats to keep overwhelming our residents with new intakes.
1. We don’t have room for more cats. We have limited funds and staff to care for the cats we do have; they have to come first.
2. It is not safe to leave cats in the parking lot. They can suffer heat stroke, or be taken away by anyone passing by.
3. When you dump them on our property, we can’t properly care for them without knowing their health, temperament and previous vaccine and spay/neuter status.
4. Cats that are left in this manner suffer a great deal of stress and become ill, placing a bigger burden upon our resources and staff.
5. In addition to not having space to adequately care for more cats our liability insurance is based on the number of cats in our care. This year that cost has more than doubled despite the number of cats in our care being less than it was last year. We cannot afford to add to that cost.
6. From this point forward any cats left in this manner will be turned over to PACC.
Adoptable cat of the week: Shadow is looking for the purrfect home, preferably with a screened in catio. He is 3 years old and will be great with a young family who would love a sweet, calm kitty. Shadow is playful but not super rambunctious. He has been neutered, tested negative for Leukemia, is up to date on vaccines and microchipped. His adoption fee is $100. If you'd like to meet Shadow, please fill out the adoption application on our website first; we will schedule a time for you to meet him. Email us at savecats@pawsitivelycats.org to let us know you submitted an application.
Our next Wine Tasting benefit at Arizona Wine Collective will be on Sunday, July 27th from 4-6pm at 4280 N. Campbell Ave. Taste three fabulous Arizona wines for $25, with $13 going to the cats. Vegan hors d'oeuvres provided, and local beers on tap. If you buy a full bottle of wine, 10% of the purchase price will also be donated. Donations of canned Friskies pate gratefully accepted. Please bring your friends too!
Amazon Smile has discontinued donations to many non-profits. You can shop over 2000 stores and have a portion of your purchase price go to the cats by using the iGive app or browser extension. Go to igive.com to get started. You can also use your Fry's Shopper card to donate to the kitties.
More wonderful news: we've decided to make food served at our events vegan friendly! Please help us spread the word.
Since 2010 we've rescued hundreds of homeless cats and kittens, and a few dogs too! As a No-Kill, nonprofit organization we are funded solely by donations from the public. Your donations mean the world to the cats residing in our shelter. Every little bit helps - no gift is too small. You can also order items for the cats from our Chewy Wish List.
If you're interested in adopting a cat, fill out our online application and we will contact you about an appointment to meet the cats. If you’re not able to adopt, please consider sponsoring a special needs cat. Sponsorships are $25 per month and can be set up via pledge.to, PayPal, Network for Good, or by having your bank mail monthly checks.
We are honored to celebrate the memory of these loved ones: MEMORIALS.

ADOPTION INFO:
We are working on updating our adoptable cats information. Currently our PetFinder page is deactivated; please see our Facebook page Adoptable Cats album for the most current information. We do not have kittens at the shelter at this time, and we don't expect to have kittens for the foreseeable future. If you're looking for a kitten, check the rescue groups that do adoptions out of PetSmart or Petco.
If you are interested in adopting one of our cats, please download an adoption application:
https://pawsitivelycats.org/lets-adopt-a-cat. Email your completed application to savecats@pawsitivelycats.org. Please check your email as that is our preferred way to contact you to review your application and set up an appointment for you to meet the cats and complete the adoption.
NOTE: If we don't get back to you, it's because we don't have an adoptable cat that matches the requirements you listed on your application.
