Texas Pawprints (TPP) grew out of North Texas Animal Rescue, a cat sanctuary located outside the DFW Metroplex. Originally, the Dallas group would take adoptable cats from the sanctuary to find them homes. However, once the adoptable and unadoptable departments grew too large, the group split into two. Since incorporation in 2001, TPP has helped reduce the number of stray animals in our cities by providing spay & neuter surgeries, foster and adoption services. Our mission, along with the generosity of our donors, fosters and volunteers has enabled Texas Pawprints to assist so many wonderful loving pets find their home with cat lovers throughout Texas. TPP’s Founder and Director, Laniq Adams, dedicates her time and resources to helping animals in need. The organizations staff, dedicated board members, and interns keep our programs flourishing.
We ask all potential adoptors to complete an application/contract. Next, we interview all potential adoptors. We ask about previous pets owned, if all family members want to adopt, and the conditions in which the animal will live. Generally we will not finalize an adoption if the animal will be allowed outdoors unsupervised, or if all family members do not agree to the adoption. We also discourage declawing of cats. Our adoption fee is $100 for one cat or $160 for two and covers a test for FIV and feline leukemia, at least one vaccination, a microchip, collar and tag, and a spay or neuter surgery. All pets are wormed and vaccinated.
