PAWS and Whiskers Society Start an adoption application

PAWS and Whiskers Society is a 501(c)3 nonprofit in Seabrook, Texas specializing in the care and placement of felines in forever homes. Cats must be healthy and fully adoptable; the organization is unable to take in cats with major behavioral issues, and only adopts out to indoor only homes. Adoption fees vary by age: $125 for a kitten under 6 months, $90 for an older kitten from 6 months to a year, $80 for adults, and $60 for seniors. If a cat is returned more than 30 days after adoption, a $30 surrender fee applies, and adoption and vet records must be brought in with the cat. As of an August 30, 2026 update, PAWS and Whiskers Society's intake and surrender department is closed to all cats, including both owned cats and strays.
