United Paws Rescue Inc
Our Mission
United Paws, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit cat rescue based in Central, Florida, committed to saving the lives of shelter and abandoned animals at risk of euthanasia throughout central Florida. Many of these animals are either in need of medical attention or too frightened to thrive in traditional shelter environments.
We ensure each animal is placed in a nurturing foster home, where they receive the care, love, and attention they deserve. Our goal is to prepare them for adoption into permanent, loving homes. United Paws covers all medical care for our animals, ensuring they are healthy and ready for their new lives.
We never turn away an animal in need. Whether they come from local shelters or the community—abandoned, sick, or injured—we are here to help. We adhere to a strict no-kill policy, only considering euthanasia when no hope for recovery remains and it is the most compassionate choice.
At United Paws, we believe every animal deserves a second chance, and we’re dedicated to making that a reality.
Adoption Policy
First we make sure that the adopter is a proper match for the cat, through conversations with their foster parent and/or a meet and greet. We are very careful to match the personality of the cat with the personality of all other humans and animals in the home to ensure a smooth transition for both the cat and the adopters. Then, the adopter fills out the application- if they pass the home and vet checks they proceed to a short phone interview. If approved, they pay their adoption fee and can take the kitty home that same day.
