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!
🐾 Orlando’s Happy Ever After 🐾
Hi everyone, Orlando here…
I’m a 2-year-old kitty, and my journey started in a hoarding situation where life was pretty overwhelming and scary for me and my siblings. Thankfully, Orange County Animal Services helped us get safe, and the wonderful humans at United Paws Rescue brought all five of us into their care so we could find our fresh starts.
And guess what… I found mine. 🏡❤️
I’ve officially been adopted! I now have a loving family, sunny spots for naps, and even a big fur sister at home to show me the ropes. She’s already teaching me the best places to lounge and how to make sure the treat jar never stays closed for long.
Thank you to everyone who helped me along the way — from rescue to foster to forever family. Because of you, this once-uncertain kitty is now living his happily ever after.
Love,
Orlando 🐾

Hi friends! It’s me… Goji (but the nice humans at United Paws Rescue first knew me as Eric). 🐾
Not too long ago, I was just a tiny little guy — under 4 months old — when I ended up at Orange County Animal Services. I was small, scared, and unsure what would happen next. But then United Paws Rescue stepped in, scooped me up, and promised to help me find the happy ending I deserved.
And wow… did they ever deliver. 💛
Soon I met my forever family — and I didn’t just get loving humans… I got TWO big fur-sisters too! They’ve been teaching me everything I need to know, helping me play, cuddle, and feel right at home.
Now my days are filled with love, zoomies, cozy naps, and being reminded how adorable I am (I mean… they’re not wrong 😸).
Thank you to United Paws Rescue for saving me, and to my forever family for loving me. Because of you, I’m safe, happy, and exactly where I belong.
Love,
Goji (formerly Eric) 🐾

🐾💘 Will you be my Valentine? 💘🐾
Hi hoomans… it’s us — the furry, whiskered, tail-wagging crew at the rescue. We’ve got a tiny Valentine’s wish to share.
Some of us have never had a Valentine before. No cozy couch to curl up on, no forever human to share slow blinks, belly rubs, or happy tail thumps with. But we do have lots of love saved up… just waiting for someone special. ❤️
This Valentine’s Day, would you be our Valentine?
You can say YES by:
🐶 Adopting a best friend
🐱 Fostering and giving us a safe place to land
💝 Donating to help with food, care, and vet visits
📣 Sharing our posts so our forever person can find us
We promise unconditional love, warm snuggles, and the kind of loyalty that lasts way longer than chocolates or flowers.
Love,
Your hopeful Valentines at United Paws Rescue 🐾💕
P.S. If you already have a furry Valentine at home, give them an extra kiss from us — and maybe help one of their friends find love too.

🚨 Missing Kitty Alert — Help Us Bring Sammy Home! 🐾
Hey friends, it’s us — the furry team at the rescue — and we need your help right away. One of our fellow kitties, Sammy, is missing, and his family is heartbroken.
Sammy is an orange American Shorthair, a very sweet, loving boy who slipped out the door on February 3, 2026. He was last seen near Aloma & Old Hollow Branch in Winter Park, FL (32792). His humans miss him terribly, and we know he’s out there needing a little help finding his way back.
If you live in the area, please:
Check garages, sheds, porches, and under bushes
Keep an eye out during the evening and early morning hours
Share this post so more neighbors can look for him
Every extra pair of eyes helps bring a lost pet home. Let’s work together and show Sammy the power of a caring community. ❤️
Sammy, your humans — and all of us rescue pets — are waiting for you. Come home soon, Sammy. 🐱
From a hoarding case to a happily ever after — Tulsa’s journey has been nothing short of beautiful. 💕
Now known as Tulsa Rose, this sweet girl has officially found her forever home… and what a perfect one it is. She was adopted by the same wonderful couple who recently welcomed Lucy, a United Paws Alumniinto their family. Talk about a reunion made in rescue heaven!
Tulsa’s story began in a tough hoarding situation at OCAS, but with love, patience, and a whole lot of teamwork, she made her way to the life she deserves — full of comfort, cuddles, and companionship.
A huge thank you to Mr. Peanut for the carrier that helped make her journey possible, and to our amazing Kitty Flight Attendant for safely flying this precious girl all the way up to Boston. ✈️🐾
Congratulations, Tulsa Rose — your new chapter is just beginning, and it’s filled with love. 💖

🎄🐾 A Christmas Message From Us — The Rescue Cats of United Paws Rescue 🐾🎄
Hi friends… it’s us.
The whiskered ones, the purr machines, the toe-bean experts.
Some of us used to sleep outside.
Some of us didn’t know what toys were.
Some of us are still waiting for our foreve
r humans.
But this Christmas, we know love — because of you and United Paws Rescue.
You gave us warm beds, full bowls, gentle hands, and hope when we needed it most.
As the lights twinkle and the tree sparkles, we’re wishing for cozy naps, kind hearts, and homes filled with compassion.
And maybe… just maybe… a forever family of our own.
Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you for choosing rescue.
From all of us at United Paws Rescue — whiskers, purrs, and happy tails included —
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays 🤍🐱

Hi there… I’m Baby Ivy 🌱🐾
I’m only 3 months old, and this holiday season I’m wishing for something very special—a forever home of my own ✨
I was found wandering the streets all alone as a tiny little kitten, unsure where I belonged. Thankfully, a friend of the rescue stepped in and asked for help—and that’s how I found my way to United Paws Rescue, where I finally learned what safety, warmth, and love feel like.
Now I’m growing, thriving, and getting to be a kitten 💕
I love other kitties, get along great with them, and my favorite game is playing chase (especially when it turns into holiday zoomies!). When the fun is over, I’m all about cozy naps and quiet moments—perfect for this time of year.
I’m currently being fostered in Orlando, but transport is available for the right forever family. This season of giving, I’m hoping someone out there is looking for a little joy, a lot of love, and a tiny kitten to grow up with.
If you’ve been thinking about opening your heart and home this holiday season, I just might be the wish you didn’t know you were making 🌟🌿

🐾 Hi friends… it’s me, Sonora. 🐾
I’m a 2-year-old kitty with a soft heart and a gentle spirit, and I’m hoping someone out there might be looking for a girl just like me. 💛
I came from a hoarding case, so I’ve learned that not all beginnings are easy… but I also learned that love, safety, and soft blankets exist — and I’m ready for a forever home where I never have to worry again.
I get along well with other cats, but what I dream of most is my human — someone who will give me warm laps, slow blinks, and cozy cuddles. My favorite place to be scratched is right between my shoulder blades… I’ll melt every time. ✨
I’m currently in Orlando, but don’t worry — transportation is available, so I can get to you safely if you’re the one meant for me. 🚗💕
If you’re looking for a sweet, soulful companion who will love you with her whole heart, I’m right here… waiting. 🐈⬛💕
Adopt me or help my friends at United paws via the link in our bio!
Love,
Sonora

🐾 Hi there… I’m LiLi. 🐾
My real name is Lilly, but my foster Meowmy calls me LiLi—she says it fits my sweet, soft little spirit.
I’m about 2 years old, and my journey hasn’t been the easiest. I came from a hoarding case, which means the world was a really big and confusing place when I first arrived in foster care. I wasn’t sure who I could trust… so I learned to be shy, quiet, and careful.
But guess what?
With time, patience, and love, I discovered something amazing: being petted feels really good. Once I get to know you, I lean in, close my eyes, and soak up all the gentle affection I missed out on for so long. I may not run to the door yet, but I will blossom for the person who sees my heart.
I also get along wonderfully with other Kit Kats—having feline friends makes me feel more confident and at home. I’d love a forever family where another friendly kitty can show me the ropes and keep me company.
✨ If you’re the kind of human who loves quiet companionship, soft paws, slow blinks, and watching a shy girl bloom into her true self… I’m waiting for you.
I may take a moment to trust, but once I do, I’ll be your little LiLi forever.
Will you be the one to give me my happily-ever-after? 💗🐱
