Pipina

Age: 

Approx. 2 years old

Sex:

F

Pipina was rescued in 2024 after a Typhoon Carina and fire devastated Pipino Street in Marikina, destroying around 30 homes. She was named after the street where she was found, narrowly surviving under the rubble. Despite the tragedy, luck was very much on this little black cat’s side, as she was discovered just in time and brought to safety.

Since then, Pipina has grown into a lively, spirited young cat who shows no trace of her difficult past. Petite and playful, Pipina likes to run around and play all day. She’s a little smaller than most of the cats at PAWS, which only means she’s easy to cuddle and light in your arms. But don’t forget, this survivor is full of courage, and is living proof that strength can come in the smallest of paw-ckages.

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.
