About Santana

Santana is a striking young male cat, around 2.5 years old, who recently found his way back to the PAWS of Hertford County. After his previous adopter reached out, we arranged to take him back. However, the meeting didn't go quite as planned, and Santana was left at our gate ahead of schedule. Despite the hiccup in his return, he’s now in a warm and safe environment, ready for his next forever home. Santana has been fully vetted, receiving all necessary vaccinations, flea and tick prevention, and is microchipped for safety. Here, at PAWS, we ensure all our animals, including Santana, are well cared for and shielded from stress. He’s a beloved member of our shelter family, and we’re dedicated to finding him the perfect match. Your future companion is waiting for you!
