My mother was found under a shed in Tarpon Springs pregnant. A nice lady rescued her and brought her to CJPaws to foster and have her kittens in a warm, safe home. I have 2 siblings and I love to play with dogs and cats and, especially, humans.

A large majority of our pets are at Petsmart in Lighthouse Crossing. 3993 Tyrone Blvd. St. Petersburg, FL 33709. Pets can be viewed by appointment only and an approved application is required to make an appointment to meet one of our animals.

It can take up to 24 hours to respond to your application and an additional 1-2 business days to have your application approved. Not all applications will be approved. Applications that are incomplete will not be approved. Please include all veterinary information, as we will be contacting your veterinarian. If you have never had a pet before and thus do not have an established vet either in the area or in an area you previously lived in, we recommend adopting from your local Animal Services.

Our adoption fee covers spay/neuter, age appropriate vaccinations, deworming, monthly flea medication while in our rescue, any medications while in our rescue, an FIV/FeLV test, and the unconditional love of your new family member. Our rescue does not continue to pay for flea medication, vaccinations, deworming, or any other medications after the animal is adopted. All costs and fees accrued after adoption are the responsibility of the new family.
