At United Paws Animal Rescue, we are dedicated to providing a safe haven for rescued animals in need, and we’re excited to introduce you to our current adoptable pets.
Each of these animals has a unique story, but they all share one thing in common – the hope of finding a loving family to call their own. Whether you’re looking for a playful puppy, a wise senior, or a sweet cat, we’re sure you’ll find a companion who is just right for you.
Please take your time browsing through our animals’ profiles, and feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to meet one of them in person. Together, we can make a difference in their lives and yours!
We’re reaching out with heavy hearts to help two beloved dogs who just lost their entire world. A close friend of our rescue recently passed away in Dallas, TX and now his two loyal companions, Roxy and Cinnamon, are looking for a new home.
Roxy is a Rottweiler/Shepherd mix, and Cinnamon is a Husky/Shepherd mix. They’re around 11 years old and have spent their lives side by side, full of love, loyalty, and companionship.
They’ve already lost their dad, and we’re doing everything we can to keep them from losing each other too. These two girls are deeply bonded, and we’re hoping to find a home that can welcome them both—together.
They are calm, loving, and just want a cozy place to feel safe again. If you have room in your heart and home for this beautiful pair, please reach out. And if you can’t adopt, sharing their story could make all the difference.
Let’s honor their dad by giving Roxy and Cinnamon the next chapter they deserve—together.
Please reshare to help us find them a home and send us a message if you are interested!

Senior sweetie seeking a soft landing…
Hello, my name is Muffin… and I’m looking for a heart to call home.
I’m 15 years old. For most of my life, I had a family, a routine, and a place where I belonged. But not long ago, that all changed — they surrendered me to the shelter, and I didn’t understand why. I was confused, scared, and heartbroken. After so many years of love, I suddenly found myself alone.
But then, something kind and beautiful happened. A wonderful person from United Paws Animal Rescue came for me. They scooped me up and brought me to a warm, quiet foster home where I could rest, heal, and feel safe again. I’m so grateful. Right now I’m living with my foster in Orlando, Florida, and I’m hoping that somewhere nearby, someone is looking for a cat just like me.
I’m a gentle, sweet tortoiseshell girl. Spayed, calm, and affectionate. I don’t need much — just a cozy spot to nap, a quiet home, and someone with a soft voice and a kind heart. I may be older, but I still have so much love to give. I’m not ready to say goodbye to the world just yet. I just need someone to say “yes” to me.
If you believe in second chances, and if your heart has room for a senior soul like mine, please reach out to United Paws Animal Rescue. I promise to love you with everything I have left.
You can inquire about adopting me or donate toward my medical care by visiting our website in our Bio!
With all the love in my little tortie heart,
Muffin

🐾 Hi, I’m Gizmo – Your Future Fluffy Best Friend!
Hey there, hooman! My name is Gizmo, and I’m a 9-month-old long-haired gentleman with the fluffiest tail in town! Seriously, it’s my pride and joy—I love to show it off when I’m feeling playful.
I’ll be honest—I’m a little shy at first. But give me some time, and I’ll show you my fun, playful side! I LOVE toys—crinkly toys, catnip toys, wand toys—you name it! Oh, and if you have a kitty friend who likes to play tag, I’m totally in.
Now, let’s talk about cuddles. I don’t mind being held, but I much prefer getting pets while I’m on solid ground—that’s where I feel safest.
I’m looking for a patient, loving hooman who will let me settle in at my own pace. In return, I promise to bring lots of fun, fluffy tail flicks, and playful energy into your life!
Right now, I’m staying with a wonderful foster family in Orlando, FL, but I can’t wait to find my forever home!
📍 Want to meet me? Visit their website in their Bio, or send my rescue friends a message!

A Special Thank You for International Women's Day from All of Us at United Paws!
Hi friends, furry and human alike! Today is International Women’s Day, and we, the rescued pets of United Paws Animal Rescue, have something very important to say:
THANK YOU to the incredible women who make our second chances possible!
From the very beginning, our rescue was founded by women with big hearts and unstoppable determination. To this day, it is run by compassionate, hardworking women who dedicate their time, energy, and love to saving animals like us. Whether it's rescuing us from tough situations, nursing us back to health, giving us belly rubs, or finding us the perfect forever homes, these amazing women are the reason we get to wag our tails, purr happily, and live the lives we always dreamed of.
To the volunteers, fosters, adopters, board members, and every woman who has ever helped an animal in need—you are our heroes. Because of you, we know love, kindness, and the warmth of a real home. Today, we celebrate YOU!
Happy International Women’s Day to all the incredible women who make the world a better place—one paw at a time!
With love (and lots of tail wags and purrs),
The Rescued Pets of United Paws Animal Rescue

🐾 Paws Up for Our Human Helpers! 🐾
Hey there, hoomans! It’s us—your fearless, furry, four-legged bosses at United Paws Animal Rescue! You may think the humans run this place, but let’s be real... we’re the masterminds behind it all.
Every day, we put in the hard work—testing the comfiest beds, making sure the treat quality is top-notch, and, of course, providing endless snuggles to keep morale high. But we must admit... we couldn’t do it without our amazing team of hooman helpers!
From cleaning up after our “artistic” food spills to organizing adoptions so our rescue friends find their forever homes, our humans are truly the cat’s meow (and the dog’s woof!). They work tirelessly to make sure we’re safe, happy, and loved—and for that, we give them ALL the tail wags, purrs, and slobbery kisses today!
So, on this Employee Appreciation Day, we, the secret rulers of United Paws Animal Rescue, officially grant you extra head boops and honorary membership into the Order of the Wagging Tails & Purring Hearts. Wear your badge with pride!
Drop a ❤️ to thank the humans who make rescue magic happen!

Happy Tailz: A Letter from Zenzi!
Hi, friends! It’s me, Zenzi! I have the most exciting news—I found my forever home in Texas!
When I first arrived at United Paws Animal Rescue after the folks at Midlothian Animal Services took good care of me, I wasn’t sure what my future would hold. But thanks to the kind humans who cared for me, I never lost hope. They gave me love, belly rubs, and a second chance. Then one day, my perfect family found me! Now, I have a warm bed, endless cuddles, and a family that loves me SO much. I even get to go on fun adventures and zoom around my new home—it’s a dream come true!
I want to say the BIGGEST tail-wagging THANK YOU to everyone who helped me along the way—from my rescue friends to my amazing adopters. Because of you, I get to live my best life! But guess what? There are still so many other animals waiting for their own happily-ever-after. Some are scared, some need extra love, and all of them just want a family like I found.
If you want to be a hero for pups and kitties like me, you can send a little love (or a virtual belly rub!) by donating to United Paws Animal Rescue. Every dollar helps fill food bowls, tuck rescue pets into cozy beds, and bring them one step closer to their forever home! Plus, it makes tails wag REALLY fast!

Sending lots of puppy kisses and happy tail wags,
Zenzi

Sometimes, fate steps in at just the right moment.
A friend of United Paws Animal Rescue was at Polk County Animal Control—the Florida shelter with the highest euthanasia rate—doing everything she could to save as many lives as possible. As she worked to help some of the "Kit Kats" in need, she noticed a woman walking up to the intake area, surrendering two cats.
Knowing these sweet boys deserved a chance, our friend didn’t hesitate—she called us immediately, asking if we could help. Without a second thought, we said, "Absolutely!" They were safe.
One of our wonderful fosters welcomed them with open arms, and it wasn’t long before Almond Eyes—now known as Miso—caught the attention of someone special. His future dad saw him on Petfinder and knew this was the cat meant to be part of his family.
Now, Miso is living his best life with a dad who absolutely adores him and a big sister who, while taking her time, is slowly deciding that she might just love him too.
From the brink of an uncertain fate to a home filled with love, Miso's story is a testament to the power of rescue. Every life saved matters, and Miso’s journey is just beginning—with his forever family by his side.
Happy tails, sweet Miso!
