I adopted 2 cats from this location. They give you all their medical records and provide affordable resources for any other work they still needed complete. They also send you a lot of resources post-adoption. I definitely recommend PAWS for new pet owners for this reason. On top of this, they have scheduled time slots once you are approved, allowing you to get all your questions or concerns answered in a 1 on 1 session. The staff member helping me specifically was very friendly & kind. Reasonably priced donation for adoption too. These kitties have been the best thing ever, 10/10 recommend!

I highly recommend this place. The people working here are so kind and helpful. You can tell that they care very much about the animals. I am very happy with my new cat!

My wife and I adopted our baby, Iris, from PAWS recently. The staff was super helpful with follow up questions re: some ways to get her to eat. Wonderful organization 🐈

Thank you PAWS Adoption Center - old city for introducing us to our new little angel Piper! The adoption process here is thorough, and the volunteers have the animals best interest in mind. For Piper it was highly encouraged she joined a household with other pets. We have another cat , Hugo, whom which she is getting along with swimmingly!

Horrible experience. It seems as though the person I was working with was just making up rules in order to not let me adopt so they could reserve the cats for two other people who were not yet approved. I was approved before I came in. I called before going over. When I came in I found a bonded duo that was perfect for my family, when I told them I wanted to adopt they suggested that I bring in my kids. I understand the suggestion. Due to my work schedule and my kids schedule bringing in all my children at once would be near impossible in the timeframe to secure the duo. At the same time I was trying to adopt another couple was trying to adopt the same duo. They were not approved for adoption yet. The suggested rule turned into a mandatory rule and he denied my adoption. No where on the si
