Waverly still has some healing and growing to do, but she is ready to continue her journey in a home of her own. We have a feeling she was someone’s dog once—someone’s couch buddy, car ride companion, and snuggle girl. Now she’s looking for a family who will love her and never leave her behind.

Age: 5 years
Ideal Home: A loving home where he can be part of the family’s everyday life, receive plenty of attention, and have another friendly cat or two for companionship
Background:
Ash’s story is a bit of a mystery. This sweet boy was found all alone on a guardrail behind the Giant Eagle. He was wearing a collar, and despite being such a friendly cat, no one ever came forward to claim him. Now Ash is hoping his next chapter will be with a family who will truly love him, include him in their everyday life, and never let him feel overlooked again.
Personality:
Good With:
Does Not Prefer:
Ash may be petite, but he certainly has a big personality! This affectionate boy wants to be part of everything you do and will happily follow you around just to make sure you remember that he's there and ready for some love. After being found alone and never having anyone come looking for him, Ash is more than ready for his second chance. He deserves a family who will shower him with love, give him all the attention he asks for, and make sure he is finally home.

LIANA
Age: 2 years
Ideal Home: A quiet, adult-only home with a patient adopter who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let Liana adjust at her own pace
Background:
Liana came to us after she was found hiding underneath someone's car. She was dehydrated, wasn't feeling well, and needed a safe place to land. Before coming to us, Liana had been TNR'ed, so people are still a very new and scary thing for her.
Since arriving, Liana has been making small but meaningful progress with our staff and volunteers. She is handleable once she trusts you and has started accepting gentle pets. On her own terms, she will even lean into them. These little moments may seem small, but they are a huge step for a girl who is still learning that people can be trusted.
Personality:
Good With:
Does Not Prefer:
Liana isn't the type of cat who will settle into a new home overnight. She may need weeks or even months to truly feel safe, but for the right person, watching her slowly discover that she is loved will be incredibly rewarding. She's safe now, and we're hopeful that her next chapter will be filled with the patience, understanding, and love she deserves

Personality:

Maytag may need a little time to warm up, but once he feels safe, his playful side starts to shine.

With Eclipse by his side, Maytag will have the confidence and companionship he needs to continue blossoming into the wonderful cat he's meant to be.

NA-ME
Age: 4.5 months
Ideal Home: A loving, playful home where she can stay with her brother Scooter and have plenty of room for fun, attention, and growing up together
Background:
Na-Me and her brother Scooter are a bonded pair who do just about everything together.

Their bond is very important to them, so they will need to find a home together.

PEPPER
Age: 5 years
Ideal Home: A calm, quiet home with someone who understands that trust takes time and is willing to let Pepper adjust at his own pace
Background:
Pepper came to us after his owner passed away. Unfortunately, his family was unable to care for him, and suddenly the only home he had ever known was gone. Now Pepper finds himself in a shelter, surrounded by unfamiliar sights, sounds, and people, and he is understandably terrified.
When Pepper first arrived, he spent most of his time hiding inside his litter box. One of our volunteers gave him a second litter box with a soft blanket inside instead, creating a small, cozy space where he could feel safe. Pepper immediately took to it and now curls up inside his little hideaway when he needs somewhere comforting to retreat.
Personality:
Good With:
Does Not Prefer:
Pepper's entire world was turned upside down, and right now, more than anything, he needs to feel safe again. He isn't a cat who doesn't want love—he simply doesn't feel safe enough to accept much of it yet. In those quiet moments when someone sits beside him and gently scratches under his chin, you can catch glimpses of the sweet boy underneath all that fear.
Pepper is the kind of cat who may be easy to overlook because he isn't running to the front of his cage or reaching his paws out for attention. But shy cats deserve homes, too. They deserve someone willing to sit beside them, offer a gentle hand, and patiently show them that they are safe. Pepper is deserving of that chance, that patience, and that love. We hope someone will see the frightened boy he is today—and believe in the loving companion he can become.

Background:

She's ready for someone to see the wonderful cat she is and make her a permanent part of the family. We know her forever family is out there, and we hope they find her soon.
Most kittens are in foster homes. All pets require an appointment to meet them, but especially kittens, as meet and greets depend on foster availability. To schedule a meet and greet please call 412-672-8901.
Generally, kittens do best with other pets in the home, especially another cat friend. Nearly all WOASH adoptable kittens require another cat in the home or to be adopted as a pair. We typically do not allow kittens do be adopted as the singular pet in the household, unless they require otherwise.

We have a few kitties who need a cat-savvy foster family, or foster-to-adopt home, to work with them on socialization. These cats are not feral, but they are not well socialized. We know they have it in them to be loving companions given the right circumstances and a patient person. Please consider serving as a socialization foster or a foster-to-adopt family. The kitties to consider are Ricardo or Midnight!

We are always in need of reliable foster homes for kittens up to 6 months old, moms cats with nursing kittens, and neonatal kittens. Our greatest need is fosters willing to take on a mom and nursing kittens!
WOASH can provide food, litter, and other supplies while foster families provide the love and care. Once kittens are of appropriate age and vet care, they begin seeking their forever homes through the WOASH adoption process.
Call to inquire about becoming a kitten foster home.
*The pictured kittens have been adopted and are not in need of a foster home.*
Found kittens or a mom with nursing kittens? Offer to one time foster! By offering to foster the kittens through our shelter, we can provide supplies and care, you just provide the space, love, and care!
