Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm

We get a lot of calls about taking opened cat and dog food and treats.

We do and are super happy to take it!

You can drop off items during our open hours of Monday - Friday, 11-2. If those items don’t work for you, please call 218-254-3300.

🐾🐱🐶

If you would like to donate off our wish list, it is attached below.

Our biggest need is kitten and cat food, bleach, paper towel and cat scratchers (the rectangular ones that can be put on the floor or we hang them in our cat kennels).

🐾🐱🐶

Thank you for your continued support of our shelter. Without the support of the community through donations and adoptions, we wouldn’t be able to stay open and provide excellent care to every cat and dog that comes through our shelter. From our shelter vet to our volunteers, we have an amazing support system that is top notch with the love and care they give to every animal.

We are not ran by our city and are donation and fundraiser based. That is why you see a ton of events our shelter has showing up on your newsfeed~ that’s how we raise money to keep the doors open and lights on. Donations go to so many parts if our shelter- general fund, vet fund, spay and neuter fund, special animal vet funds, senior to senior fund, and so many more.

All of us at Precious Paws thank every one of YOU for your support. YOU ROCK!!

Joey Jerkovich Challenge:

Our current flooring in the main cat room is worn and outdated. A campaign to remove the painted floor and replace it with polyureas, which will improve overall functionality of the space, is being launched!

Our matching donor, Joey Jerkovich, match every dollar donated to the new flooring project, up to a total of $3,000!

This means that contributions will have twice the impact, helping to reach the goal faster and more efficiently. That means twice as many purrs of gratitude, and double the smiles on the faces of our furry friends waiting for their forever homes!

Donations, regardless of the size, will help install durable and long-lasting flooring that will serve the community for years to come.

How to Double Your Impact:

Make a donation on this fundraiser or send a check to: Precious Paws, 101 SW 1st Ave, Chisholm, MN 55719 {please put Floor Fundraiser in the memo area}.

We are grateful for your continued support and we believe that with help, it can create a welcoming and functional space for everyone, including the cats. Thank you for considering this opportunity to make donations go even farther!

Our current flooring in the main cat room is worn and outdated. A campaign to remove the painted floor and replace it with polyureas, which will improve overall functionality of the space, is being launched!

In 2011, our building was renovated and the floor was painted. Throughout the last 4 years, the paint has been wearing out and the concrete underneath is showing not only in the main walking areas but also inside the built-in cat kennels .

Our matching donor, Joey Jerkovich, match every dollar donated to the new flooring project, up to a total of $3,000!

This means that contributions will have twice the impact, helping to reach the goal faster and more efficiently. That means twice as many purrs of gratitude, and double the smiles on the faces of our furry friends waiting for their forever homes!

Great information from Kathy at The Retriever’s:

Fireworks season is here again. Here are some safety tips for your pets:

🐶 let out your pets before dusk for there last potty break
🐶 if you have company over, make sure they are in a safe place so they can't sneak out
🐶for a fenced in yard, put a Carabiner on your latches
🐶 write your phone number on their collar

Fireworks are not just 4th of July; it's before the 4th and after the 4th.

Be safe all and have a good time. 🐾🐶🐾

Thank you Kathy for the great tips and information! Kathy is the case manager for The Retriever’s and helps families track and trap their dogs. She guides them through the process and will go as far as not sleeping so she can find your dog. She is amazing and a wealth of knowledge!
