Muffin has been looking for a home for over a year since coming to PAWS from CACC - let’s get this girl home!! Muffin was 24 pounds when we met her, with severe knee osteoarthritis. Since then, Muffin has lost nearly 5 pounds, which has helped a lot! As she continues to lose weight, her arthritis will naturally improve, but monthly medication and a special diet help her live much more comfortably. If you’re looking for an independent pal, a soundtrack of purrs, and maybe a chuckle or two when you find her testing the nap factor of a dishwasher door, you’ll love Muffin! We’d love for someone to give Muffin a chance - email [email protected] to inquire about fostering or adopting Muffin!
Welcome to PAWS, Basil! No more lonely days for this pup, who was found abandoned in a basement without food. There’s no telling how long he waited there, but he was very underweight when he finally arrived at a local animal control facility. Basil is understandably shy at first, but he opens up quick - then it’s all kisses and wiggles! He’ll spend the next few days getting adoption ready and showered with love!
Former stray Samantha had a big surprise for her finder - four newborns!
A kind soul took Samantha out of the cold, not knowing that they were saving five lives instead of one. The day before they were coming to bring her to PAWS, Samantha gave birth at their home.
We can’t imagine Samantha trying to keep Sybil, Sonia, Shana, and Sandra in single digit temperatures, but we don’t have to. They’re safe, warm, and already settled into a foster home that stepped up for them the same day they arrived.
Our cat feeding partner Purina helps us feed every cat in our care, including those in foster - so while Samantha’s kittens grow big and strong, so does she! She’ll never know a hungry night again ❤️
If you’ve known PAWS for a while, you probably know Sandy.
She’s our longest stay dog ever - well, *formerly* our longest stay dog - because she’s officially adopted!!!
Sandy spent most of the last 4 years in foster care, and after recently returning from a foster stay, Sandy was at our Adoption Center when Kim came in looking for a best friend last weekend.
She’d seen a video of Sandy’s foster talking about how wonderful she is on her PAWS online profile, and came in to ask about her. Needless to say they were fast friends, and for the first time in 4 years, Sandy was adopted!
Today, we gathered all of Sandy’s favorite people to send her off with love, and we’ve never seen a tail work so hard! We are thrilled for her and her new mom, please help us give all the congratulations to this extremely special PAWS alum ❤️❤️
We met Peach at animal control after she came in as a stray, sick and struggling to breathe, reported to be vomiting with blood in it, dry and itchy skin, and most obviously, ear canals completely obstructed and calcified. This can happen from ear infections left untreated for too long, and at this point, her only treatment option will be surgery. But Peach is in the right place to get all the help she needs. We’re treating her cold and her skin, so that she can get ready for surgery for her ears. Her road to recovery will be long, but full of love. You made that possible, PAWS community! Thank you ❤️
