Operation Paws for Homes
We're More Than a Rescue.
We’re creating a better world for companion animals and the communities they call home.
From rescue and rehabilitation to spay/neuter, humane learning opportunities, and community support, we’re building lifesaving solutions that make a difference, one animal, one family, and one community at a time.

Cats Rescued

We believe every animal deserves a second chance, and in 2025, our community made more than 1,300 of them possible.
Powered by dedicated fosters, volunteers, adopters, and donors Operation Paws not only rescued animals but invested in solutions that make lifesaving possible beyond rescue. Together, we’re not just saving animals. We’re changing lives, strengthening communities, and creating a more humane future.

Featured Fosters

Dottie
Dottie is a sweet mixed-breed girl weighing about 40 pounds. She’s house trained, crate trained, and working hard on her manners.
Dottie is wonderful with kids and cats! She can be selective with her dog friends and needs slow, proper introductions with both people and other dogs. Once she feels comfortable, her sweet personality shines through.

Aries
Aries is a handsome black-and-white tuxedo kitten with a fun, outgoing personality and plenty of confidence! Friendly, social, and easygoing, he gets along wonderfully with kids, dogs, and other cats, making him a great fit for just about any household. Whether your home is full of activity or a little more relaxed, Aries is ready to jump right in, bring plenty of fun and love to your days, and become your new best friend!

Flossy
Flossy is a gentle 7-year-old former breeding mom who is slowly learning that people can be kind, safe, and worthy of her trust. She needs a quiet, patient home with an experienced adopter, a secure fenced yard, and ideally a confident canine companion who can help her continue discovering the love and comfort she has always deserved.

Tanya
Tanya is a beautiful 2-year old torbie mama with long legs, a graceful build, and striking eyes that look like they were lined with black mascara. She is curious, affectionate, and wonderfully balanced in personality. Tanya explores her surroundings confidently, then comes looking for her people for attention and affection. She rubs against your legs, looks up expectantly, and makes it very clear she believes pets should begin immediately.
