We are a true no-kill shelter, and will do whatever we can, however long it takes, to find suitable, loving homes for the animals in our care. PAWS is a no kill shelter that has been helping homeless animals since 1962. We have Cats and Dogs for adoption, 12-4pm Tuesday thru Sunday! You do need an appointment to visit now, and you must be an approved adopter.

When do things need replacement? At the critical time when needed!

We find ourselves in a critical time as our shelter needs a new HVAC unit ASAP, especially with the summer heat still a concern. We need donations to help pay for a new unit. Mento, in photo, is in one of the rooms that will benefit from this needed replacement, along with several other cat rooms and a few dog kennels.

Please make donations to

We are trying something new for ourselves to kick off the Clear the Shelters.
What’s new? We have set a schedule when you can come meet some of the cats and dogs at our shelter versus setting an appointment with adoption team prior. Requirement is you need to have an adoption application completed before.

Maybe you will make a love match for yourself. Maybe you know of the perfect family for one of them. Either way help us with the Clear the Shelter for August.
