Hello everyone! Meet Simon, a PAWS Ohio rescued cat who has a big problem with his gums and teeth. One of our amazing vet partners, Dr Rob Schwartz examined him this past Wednesday, and now we have a game plan to fix his mouth so that he may find his forever home. The estimate is between $784.53-$1,031.53. This includes trimming away the affected gums, sending the tissue for biopsy, X-ray of his entire mouth, any teeth that need to be extracted,and all antibiotics. If you would like to donate directly in Simon’s name to Trinity Veterinary Hospital for his upcoming surgery, you can reach them at 440-968-5141. All donations for Simons care are deeply appreciated!

If a man's best friend is a dog, then a lost dog's best friend must be Matt Granito. Although he has the title Geauga County Dog Warden, Granito is more like a humane officer than a dog catcher. With a 97-percent success rate, his department has the highest adoption rate in Ohio.
