My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Gemma & Jax!

This adorable bonded mother-and-son duo is ready to find their forever home together. Gemma and Jax do everything as a team—playing, snuggling, and exploring their surroundings side by side. Their sweet bond is truly heartwarming to witness.

Gemma, the devoted momma, is a loving and gentle cat who’s happiest when she’s with her son. While she’s affectionate with her humans, she can be a bit cautious in new situations, especially with younger children or other cats. She prefers a calm and respectful environment where she can relax and feel secure.

Jax, her playful and curious son, brings all the kitten energy to the pair! He loves to chase toys, climb cat trees, and follow Gemma’s lead. Together, they balance each other perfectly—Jax’s playful nature complements Gemma’s calm and nurturing personality.

These two have been in a foster home with children and did best with kids over 8 years old, as Gemma was a little unsure about the energy of a toddler. They’d likely do well with a respectful dog but would prefer a home where they can be the only cats (Gemma isn’t too fond of feline competition).

If you’re looking for a ready-made pair of snuggle buddies and playmates, Gemma and Jax are ready to steal your heart!

This cat attends Saturday adoption events (10 AM to 2:30 PM) at our Verona Adoption Center and possibly may be adopted by appointment during the week by approved adopters.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Before any Angel’s Wish animal is placed in a new home, he or she is spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and treated for parasites and any known medical concerns. Cats are tested for FeLV/FIV; dogs are tested for heartworm and are microchipped. Upon adoption, all animals are eligible for one month of complimentary ShelterCare Pet Insurance. Cats adopted at the Angel's Wish Pet Adoption and Resource Center also go home with a goodie bag, a coupon for a free nail trim, and a $5 off coupon for microchipping. 100% of adoption fees are applied to animal medical care.

An application, adoption fee, and contract is required.

Go meet their pets

Adopt a new furry friend
Our volunteer foster homes get to know their fostered animals well and understand their personalities—allowing us to make great matches between people and pets! Let us know about your family situation, current pets, and the type of pet you are looking for and we can guide you to animals that would be a great match.

Our primary adoption site is the Angel’s Wish Pet Adoption and Resource Center at 161 Horizon Drive, Suite 106 in Verona-just a few minutes from Madison. Visit adoptable animals, and get acquainted in private visiting rooms. Open hours are Saturdays 10am to 4pm and Sundays 1pm to 4pm.

We also hold weekly adoptions on Sundays from 1pm to 4pm at Petsmart East in Madison at 2216 East Springs Drive.

Stop by a regularly scheduled or special “mobile” adoption event at locations throughout Dane, Jefferson, and Rock counties. Please see our website to see where the pets will be next!

More about this rescue

Angel’s Wish is an all-volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)3 organization founded in 2000.

Mission Statement
Angel’s Wish is dedicated to reducing animal overpopulation, rehoming companion animals, and raising awareness of animal welfare issues in South Central Wisconsin.

Why are we called Angel's Wish?
Lois Lawrence, a founding member of Angel's Wish, once rescued a kitten from a construction site. Weak with starvation, dehydration, and a severe upper respiratory infection, neither veterinary treatment nor Lois’ love and care could save the kitten from the effects of that hot June day. Angel died that night in Lois' arms. We believe that Angel's Wish would have been that no other animal be subjected to pain, suffering, abandonment or neglect.

About the Animals of Angel’s Wish
We divert animals from ever arriving at area shelters, and as space allows, assist rescue groups and shelters. We accept only animals we have space to care for, and euthanize only for severe medical or temperament reasons. Animals stay in their current home or are cared for in volunteer foster homes until adoptive homes are found.
