Apparently, Lulu has decided that friendships are best when they're FORCED. 😂❤️

This is a new side of Lulu we're seeing, and apparently she's determined to make Cookie her new bestie… whether Cookie signed up for it or not!

Cookie is the lucky recipient of Lulu's very enthusiastic affection, complete with lots of smushing and absolutely ZERO personal space. 😹

Sometimes friendship isn't a choice… especially when Lulu chooses YOU! 🐾💕

Neko is a sweet senior girl looking for a new place to call home. She’s 12 years old and came to the shelter after her owner passed away. This tortie has lots of love to give and would do best in a peaceful environment where she can settle in at her own pace. Other calm animals may be ok (after a proper intro). Could you be the special someone to give this lovely senior a new beginning? Reach out today! .

💔 A Heartbreaking Update on Cashew 🥜🐾

It is with incredibly heavy hearts that we share that our sweet little Cashew has crossed the Rainbow Bridge.🌈

Overnight, Cashew developed a fever and began experiencing severe seizures that, despite the veterinary team's best efforts, could not be brought under control.

After everything this little guy had been through, we were faced with the heartbreaking decision to let him go peacefully rather than allow him to continue suffering.

One of the hardest parts of rescue is accepting that even with all the love, knowledge, resources, and medical intervention in the world, sometimes we simply cannot save them. Sometimes the kindest and most compassionate thing we can do is recognize when the fight has become too much and love them enough to say goodbye.

We had so hoped for a different ending for Cashew. He came into our lives unexpectedly, and although his time with us was far too short, he mattered. He was loved. And he didn't have to face his final days alone.

Unfortunately, even though Cashew is no longer with us, we are still facing a significant veterinary bill for his emergency hospitalization, diagnostics, treatments, and end-of-life care.

We know asking for donations after losing an animal can be difficult, but these expenses are a very real part of rescue. Any contribution toward Cashew's outstanding medical bills would be deeply appreciated and will help us continue caring for the many animals who depend on Angels With Paws.

We couldn't give Cashew the future we wanted for him, but we gave him love, comfort, medical care, and a chance. And when there was nothing more we could do, we gave him peace.❤️

Thank you to everyone who supported Cashew, shared his story, donated, or simply hoped alongside us.

Rest easy, little Shark Mouth. 🦈🥜 You were an Angel With Paws, too.🐾❤️

Good food, generous hearts, and over $3,000 raised! 🎉 We can now get the shed we so desperately need!

Thank you to everyone who came, bid, donated, and volunteered—and to The Rising Church for hosting us!

Our kitties are lucky to have you! 🐾❤️

🐾❤️ Wait… isn’t Angels With Paws a CAT rescue?!

Well, yes. Yes, we are. But at the heart of it all, we are animal rescuers. And when an animal in need crosses our path, it's pretty hard to turn away.

Everyone, meet Cashew! 🥜🐶

Cashew is a young puppy who was found in desperate need of medical attention. When attempts to contact his owners went unanswered, we had a choice to make.

And really, there wasn't much of a choice at all.

Cashew needed help. So we helped.❤️

Unfortunately, this adorable little guy has some pretty significant medical challenges. He's already been to the vet multiple times, and we're still searching for answers.

Here's what we know:

🐾 He's ridiculously adorable. Obviously.

🦈 He has SO MANY TEETH that veterinarians have affectionately nicknamed him "Shark Mouth."

🧠 His skull is misshapen, raising concerns about possible neurological abnormalities, including CH.

💔 He experiences episodes of extreme lethargy, sometimes becoming nearly unresponsive and appearing unable to see or hear.

🩺 We're investigating some serious possibilities, including a liver shunt or brain lesion.

❤️ And perhaps most importantly? He knows his name. Our little Cashew knows he's Cashew, and we're pretty sure he knows he's loved.

Unfortunately, things have taken a scary turn. Cashew is currently back in the emergency hospital after experiencing severe seizures. 💔

We're awaiting test results and more information, and we're incredibly worried about this little guy. We don't know what his future holds, but we do know that Cashew deserves a chance.

And THIS is what your support of Angels With Paws makes possible.

Yes, your donations help hundreds of cats and kittens, including the medically fragile, seniors, and special-needs kitties. But sometimes, they also mean that when a very sick puppy unexpectedly lands in our laps, we can say:

"We've got you, little guy." ❤️

Because rescue isn't always about the species. It's about helping an animal who needs you.

Cashew's medical expenses are growing, and any donations toward his emergency care would mean the world to us. If you cant donate- please share.

Thank you for supporting Cashew, the many kitties
