Darnell's Story

Poor Darnell has been through a lot! This big tub of love has been adopted from Heavenly Paws twice, and is, once again, looking for a forever home - this time, with his new best friend Maxine!<br/><br/>Darnell was adopted for the first time in 2018 and enjoyed almost seven years with a loving owner. Unfortunately, she passed away in early 2025. Darnell - scared, confused and very overweight - found himself back in foster care. He was terrified but eventually came around and was adopted again a few months later. Unfortunately, for reasons we haven't been able to pinpoint, he was not happy in his new home, and he was returned.<br/><br/>Darnell was scared and confused again, but he soon made a friend - a little 4-month-old kitten named Maxine! Darnell immediately "adopted" Maxine when she arrived in rescue, grooming her, snuggling her and helping her find her confidence. We would love to find them a home together if possible! (<a href="https://heavenlypawsshelter.com/kitty/maxine/">Check out Maxine's profile here</a>).<br/><br/>Darnell has a clean bill of health (including a recent blood panel and urine check) but he does have some personality quirks and will require a quiet, cat-savvy home. Underneath his beefy exterior is a gentle, sensitive soul who loves belly rubs and being brushed. Could you finally give Darnell the forever home he deserves? Darnell is estimated to be about 7-8 years old and is neutered and up to date on vaccines.<br/><br/> Please visit our website www.heavenlypawsshelter.com to learn more about this amazing pet and to see other available cats and kittens.

Heavenly Paws Animal Shelter Inc.'s Adoption Policy
Welcome to the Heavenly Paws Animal Shelter's adoption process. The first step towards adopting one of our special babies is to fill out our simple one page application. We will be in touch within 24 hours after receiving your application. Each one of our cats are tested for leukemia and aids, receive their initial vaccines (distemper), vet check-up as needed, treatment for fleas, worms, parasites, ear mites, and their nails trimmed. If the cat/kitten is old enough they may have more done for them, such as, rabies vaccine and second distemper vaccine. If they are old enough prior to adoption they will be spayed or neutered. If not, you will be given a spay/neuter certificate for one of our local vets we work with. Our business office is located in Seven Valleys (York County, PA). Since we are a non-profit, any donations and adoption fees are a tax-write off for you. At in-tack all our cats spend time in one of our foster homes until they are ready for adoption.
