Approx. 11 years old

Sex:

Athena is one of the oldest cats at PAWS. Originally a Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) kitten from a partner university, she was admitted into the PAWS shelter back in 2015.

Since then, Athena has been hoping to get adopted and to know how it is like to have her own family and home. She’s a feline goddess with her beautiful eyes and often likes to watch the world from a pedestal. Many of her peers seek her infinite wisdom, and she encourages them to take plenty of naps and only eat when they’re hungry as she does.

There are times when this sweet senior can be introverted but, she’s just a gentle little lady who’s always open to sharing her prudence and receiving some love in return.

Adoption FAQ

Can I return my adopted pet if I change my mind?

A pet is a lifetime commitment. However, if you truly can’t keep your adopted pet, please don’t abandon them on the streets or with strangers. Please return them to us so we can find another home for them. 

Can my adoption application get denied?

Yes. Some reasons for denied applications include: Not being able to keep their pet indoors, incompatibility with the household, plus other circumstances that may be damaging to the health, safety, and happiness of our shelter animals. 

I live in the province/abroad. Can I still adopt?

Yes, but special arrangements need to be made for the meet-and-greet, depending on your location. Please contact us to discuss your options. You may also opt to adopt from your local pound instead.

Why is there an adoption fee?

The adoption fee is a token of your commitment and and a demonstration of your financial capacity to care for a pet. P500 for cats / P1000 for dogs is a small price which already covers your pet’s spay/neuter surgery, vaccinations and tick+flea treatment.

Can I adopt more than one pet?

Some applicants may be approved to adopt more than one pet on a case to case basis, but especially if the animal you wish to adopt belongs to a bonded pair.
