Wayward Paws, Inc.

Wayward Paws, Inc. Wayward Paws, Inc. was founded in 2006. We are a small grass-roots non-profit (501-c-3) organization We are currently serving the CNY area!!

is a 501(c-3) non-profit Cat/Kitten Rescue and Adoption Organization. Onondaga, Madison, Oswego, Cayuga and Cortland counties. We try to help wherever we can :)

We do not have our own building to shelter our rescues, therefore our volunteers care for our cats/kittens in their own homes until they are ready to find their forever families! We also provide them with necessary veterinary care until w

e are able to find them permanent homes. We operate solely on the generous donations of others!! Plus, we help feral and semi-feral cats by spaying/neutering them through our TNR (trap/neuter/return) program. If we are able to find feral kittens in time (usually by 8 - 16 wks -- the sooner the better), we are able to socialize them and find them forever homes!!

💙🐾 IMPORTANT UPDATE — PLEASE READ & SHARE 🐾💙

We’ve put together this graphic to help explain what’s happening right now behind the scenes and what it means for our ability to help animals in our community.

We know many of you are reaching out, asking how to help, asking about intakes, and asking about the animals from our recent rescues — and we hear you. This post is meant to give clarity and transparency about where things stand.

📞 We are currently at capacity and operating on a wait list for intakes.
If you need to be added to the list, please call: 315-297-4900

This over-capacity situation is a real-world consequence of Article 26-C. We said from the beginning this would happen — and now we are living it.

If you are as frustrated as we are, please take a moment to act:
👉 Sign the petition: https://c.org/zCj65mwjJd
👉 Learn more + contact your NYS Senator:
https://www.oswegocountyspca.org/help-save-our-rescues.html

For everything else — what’s happening behind the scenes, why you may not see animals listed yet, and how you can help — please read through the graphic.

Thank you for your continued support, patience, and for standing with us. 💙🐾

Here's a simple shelter you can make to help keep community cats warm this winter... I also tape the mylar insulation to the lid as well 💙😻
