About this Cat
Get ready to meet the new rockstar in your life! Carla Santana bursts through the scene and into your heart like a rock song from her namesake would. (Smooth by Carlos Santana feat. Rob Thomas, anyone?). Carla is a chonky 5 year old girl weighing in at a whopping 17 pounds. Don't let her size fool you though, she loves to play, often launching around strings and wands in a moment's notice. She'll occasionally chase little pieces of plastic lying around your house. If there's more than one, she'll pick a favorite and ignore the rest. I don't make the rules that's her MO. This sweet girl is a bundle (and we mean it) of joy waiting for love. She's the type of cat that likes to lounge around the couch all day but would gladly cede a little bit of room in exchange for some scratches, belly rubs, and brushes. She loves getting tail scratches when she's loafing as well, which triggers what has been described as "the fastest elevator butt this side of the Delaware". She can be a little slow to settle in at first (what rock star ever found their groove quickly anyway?) but once she does you'll have the sweetest and loudest purring tabby girl ever. (Fun fact: during her initial assessment, PAWS staff couldn't hear her heartbeat well because she was purring too much). It'll require some patience, but the end result is worth it. Just ask her foster! Carla is a firm believer in the concept of being together alone, so she'll follow you to your room just to ignore you, until you decide to stop in your tracks relinquish your attention to her. At night, this cutie will wait for you to be fully tucked into bed before sitting by your bedside, requesting clearance and permission to land by your pillow and spending the night there. The best part? She'll gladly stay in bed as long as you're in it, cuddling until you're ready, so no waking you up for food. Afterwards though be ready for her to kindly but decisively escort you to her empty bowl. This lady hasn't lived with other pets before so it's unknown how she would do with them. As she's timid at first, she would do best in a calm environment to decompress in. She might eventually do well with other laid back cats or dogs that respect her space. She's on a special pre-diabetic diet because of her weigh so PAWS will supply a few months worth of her food to ease her transition. Adopt Carla Santana now and get ready for this absolute unit to love you unconditionally! Age: 5 years How I came to PAWS: Rescue transfer Animal ID#: A179226 I am not at the shelter. Please email my foster parent at [email protected] to learn more about me!

Adopt Carla Santana and Receive Carla Santana's Fund
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Carla Santana's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised.
$0.0 is Carla Santana's current balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. If you adopted the Carla Santana, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Carla Santana's contribution here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the contribution by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the contribution. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Carla Santana was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Carla Santana’s balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
We want the Carla Santana’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Carla Santana’s balance will remain in our general fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
