Sun Cities 4 Paws

Sun Cities 4 Paws Cat Rescue would like to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated, shared our posts, and sent supplies from our emergency kitten wish list during our recent exposure to the deadly panleukopenia virus. We are incredibly grateful for the outpouring of support from our community. Because of your generosity, we received piles of boxes and bags of much-needed supplies along with online, in-person, and mailed donations that are helping us continue treatment and prevention efforts.

We are relieved to share that the kittens who were being treated are currently doing well, and we have had no new cases at the shelter at this time. We also had two cases in foster care that received treatment and are currently doing well too. Panleukopenia moves fast and can be devastating, so this is encouraging news, but we are continuing to remain extremely cautious and proactive.

This situation reminds us how important vaccinations are. The best protection against panleukopenia is keeping cats up to date on their FVRCP vaccines, especially kittens and vulnerable cats.

Thank you again for standing with us, supporting these kittens, and helping us continue to fight for every life that comes through our doors. Your kindness truly made a difference!

How does it work? You ‘surrender’ the cat or kittens to us, but you generally keep them for 3-4 weeks* while bringing them in to us when required for necessary vet checks, vaccines and sterilization (if needed).

Not only does this guarantee your cat or found kittens a place to go in 3-4 weeks*, it keeps the cat or kittens in a home and comfortable, reducing stress, while we get them adoption ready, and it frees up needed shelter space. Once they are ready for adoption, you get a date to bring the cat or kittens in and they are adoption ready!

*Kittens usually take longer depending on age. Please call 623-773-2246 for additional information

Intake to Foster Program

When securing our future, we often forget to make provisions for our pets. Sun Cities 4 Paws Rescue has a program called the Loving Legacy which helps you to make provisions for your cat(s) if something were to prevent you from caring for them. Often people believe their families/friends will care for their fur babies and it turns out, they don’t want the added responsibility. Loving Legacy will give you a piece of mind.

Visit our Loving Legacy page for more information on how this program would help you and your little one(s).

Mama Snow White is a beautiful 2-year-old girl who just wants a chance at a home. Found as a pregnant stray, she safely raised her kittens and watched each of them find a forever home. Now it’s her turn.
This polydactyl girl comes with extra toe beans and extra charm. Mama Snow White enjoys spending her days perched on a cat tree by the window, soaking up the sunshine and quietly watching the world go by.
While she can be shy in new situations and may retreat from loud noises or sudden activity, she blossoms with patience and kindness. Once she feels comfortable, Mama Snow White’s affectionate side shines through.

She is looking for a calm home with an experienced cat owner who understands that some cats need a little extra time to feel safe and secure. If you’re willing to let her set the pace, Mama Snow White will
reward you with quiet companionship, gentle affection, and the joy of watching a once-shy cat truly come into her own. After raising her family, this devoted mama is ready to find a loving family of her very own. Meet her at the Peoria Shelter, 10807 N 96th Ave, Peoria AZ 85345 or call 623-773-2246. Other cats available at PetSmart, 13764 W Bell Rd, Surprise, AZ 85374

The Lucky Fund

The Lucky Fund started when we took in a cat that had been shot and had over 20 BB's throughout her body. The outpouring of donations was substantially more than what the costs were to save Lucky (who is doing great in a forever foster home!). We created 'The Lucky Fund' to help other cats we take in that needed medical care above and beyond normal veterinary care.
