Come Meet Nichelle at the Petco in Northeast Philadelphia:

Grant Ave and Roosevelt Blvd.

Adoption hours are 6-8pm weeknights and 11-3pm weekends.

Please email petcopaws@gmail.com with questions.

Nichelle is a friendly 4-6 year old buff tabby cat. She was picked up as a stray and has been patiently awaiting her new home Since early June. She enjoys being pet and will rub her head against your hand. She's a calmer, mature cat that is past the kitten stage. Nichelle gets startled by a lot of sudden movements so would do best in a home without small children. She prefers to be the only cat, so she can have all of your attention!

Nichelle is vaccinated, spayed, microchipped, and up to date on flea preventative. Her adoption fee is a $50 donation to a non-profit (PAWS).





PAWS, the Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society, is a 501(c)3 non-profit animal rescue organization. PAWS pulls at-risk animals from the City of Philadelphias animal control shelter and adopts them out, either from our adoption center (located at 2nd and Arch Streets), from one of our adoption locations at area PETCO and PetSmart stores, or from our network of foster homes.


PAWS is dedicated to saving the lives of Philadelphias homeless, abandoned and unwanted animals and is working to make Philadelphia a city in which every healthy and treatable pet is guaranteed a home.


When you adopt a pet from PAWS you truly save a life!

PAWS' Adoption Center in Old City is open Monday-Friday from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m., Saturday 11a.m.-7p.m., and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Please reference this animal's ID NUMBER when inquiring about this pet.

All animals adopted from PAWS are up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and microchipped. Adoption fees are as follows: $75 for dogs older than 1 year, $110 for puppies under 1 year, $50 for cats over 6 months of age, and $75 for cats under 6 months of age.
