Thundering Paws Animal Sanctuary

We are a companion animal rescue group and sanctuary.Our animals come from many places. About 75% are adoptable - we find them homes. Others are feral (wild) cats who have had no positive contact with humans. They, too, have good lives at Thundering Paws. Our foster home network helps us care for many more animals than can stay at the sanctuary.Some animals arrive fearful and cannot be adopted until they learn what it's like to be touched by gentle hands. Others need time to recover from injuries or illness before they go to their new homes.While spay/neuter is the only permanent solution to the overpopulation of companion animals, Thundering Paws wants animals who are already born to have full, happy lives. That is why we are a no-kill facility.We are a 501(c)(3) organization. All donations to Thundering Paws are tax deductible. We rely on our volunteers and generous donors to keep us going.

Meet Peyton & Melvin

Melvin and Payton are a bonded pair with personalities that complement each other perfectly. Melvin, a chonky tuxedo with green eyes and a face like a medieval painting, is confident and social, always ready to explore. Payton, a long and skinny grey tabby with an incredibly soft coat, is more reserved but deeply affectionate once he feels comfortable. Melvin takes the lead in new situations, while Payton follows his cues, making them a great duo for a home that wants both an outgoing cat and a sweet, cuddly companion. Both love to play but in different ways. Melvin is energetic and curious, always climbing and batting at his roller ball track. Payton prefers crinkle toys and hair ties, getting playful but never too wild. Melvin is the thinker of the pair, always figuring things out, while Payton thrives on affection. Both are food-motivated, making it easy to earn their trust. When it’s time to relax, they curl up together at the foot of the bed or on the couch. Payton loves being carried and cuddled, while Melvin prefers to keep all four paws on the ground but enjoys a good brushing. Both meow for attention, with Payton being especially chatty when he wants pets or food. They’ve done well with other cats and gentle older kids, making them a great fit for a multi-cat household or a family with considerate children. Melvin is social with new people, while Payton takes a little more time but warms up once he sees Melvin feeling safe. They aren’t fans of dogs, so they’d be happiest in a home without them. Melvin and Payton would thrive in a home where they can stay together, bringing the perfect mix of playfulness and affection. If you’re looking for a well-balanced pair, these two are ready to make your home complete.

Adoption Process
We ask potential adopters to fill out an application, which we review. We prefer to have the name and contact information for a current or former veterinarian. We typically deliver the adopted pet(s) to the adopter's home, at which time a contract is signed. We ask for a $100 adoption donation, which includes spay/neuter, current vaccinations, FIV and feline leukemia testing for cats, heartworm testing for dogs, and all veterinary records. If for any reason an adoption does not work out, we take the animal back at any time during his or her life. Until the adopter and Thundering Paws decide together that the adoption is final, we will refund the adoption donation.
