WELCOME TO PAWS
| Purrs And Whiskers Shelter, Inc. (PAWS) is a non-profit 501 (c) 3, all-volunteer organization, dedicated to assisting cats and kittens through its rescue, foster, and adoption activities. We find loving homes for unwanted, abandoned, homeless, or abused cats and kittens. Most of our volunteers work full time.
Since our inception in 2000, we have found loving, caring homes for over 1,500 cats/kittens. We usually adopt cats every weekend at a local pet store (locations vary). Call our adoption hotline to find out “where” we will be on Saturday, the number is 321-752-5120. We have wonderful cats and kittens of all colors, shapes, sizes, and ages. Each of our felines has had all their medical requirements tended to; we work with several veterinarians that ensure this. Each cat has been tested for Feline Leukemia and Feline AIDS when old enough, spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and de-fleaed. The adoption fee of $75 assists us in covering SOME of these costs. (It’s the best deal in town – a cat that is “fixed” and has its shots, and a Feline Leukemia test, all for $75??)
Other than adoption fees, which do not cover the full costs of most of the animals we have vetted, our ONLY source of funding is from the generous donations we receive from caring individuals. We are not government-funded.
PAWS needs volunteers to help our adoption gurus on the weekends! To volunteer, call Karen at 752-5120 (leave a message!!).
We now have plenty of foster moms. Currently, we have 8 foster moms, handling about 100 cats/kittens. With our small volunteer force, this is enough! Since we only have 8-10 cages at our adoption events, we have to coordinate which cats are coming every week (we have to alternate because the cats get tired of sitting in a cage all day, especially the adults who get overlooked too often.
Thank you!
