For the Love of a Paw Mission: Work toward effective management of the domestic & stray animal populations in our community
A 501(c)3 nonprofit The time has come to do better.

The fact is that there are more dogs and cats than there will ever be homes or rescues. The feral cat population continues to multiply. Litters of puppies and kittens pop up on Facebook and other forms of social media. “Free” to a good home….Many times those free puppies and kitten are never neutered or spayed and soon they will producing puppies or kittens that have no one to love them. The cycle

continues but there are solutions. It cannot be fixed overnight, but we must start somewhere. Our main goals:
Facilitate dog and cat adoptions

Helping out as we can with dogs, cats, puppies and kittens especially including the sick or injured

Spay/Neuter program for dogs and cats

Owner retention program for the elderly and those who may just be having a hard time financially. You cannot mandate compassion, but you can certainly support and nurture the very notion. The population is growing and they are suffering. One heartbeat at a time...

These nine puppies need rescue! They were born on Halloween so they’re 12 weeks old. As they get older it is overwhelming for the person caring for them. Please let us know if you can help!

Snow Cat
By C. J. Krieger

Darting over the road
Like a meandering mound of snow
On a warm autumn’s day
A jittery white cat
Pursuing its next meal
Zigzagged
Through the trees and grass
As it faded out of sight

After a while
One could see
A small white dot
Disappearing
Looking like the first
Snowflake of winter
Peacefully vanishing
Into the wooded countryside

Unfortunately, because of the weather forecast calling for snow and ice in the Charleston area, our TNR day scheduled for this Thursday has been canceled. We will let you know as soon as we have a new date. Stay safe and warm!

Update: Claimed!

Can anyone in the Elloree,South Carolina, area use any of these foods? Please let us know.

01/15/2025

We want to send out a huge thanks to whomever sent this to us. We really appreciate it because canned cat food is something we use a lot of every single day. The kitties really appreciate it!

01/14/2025

We’ve started 2025 right where we left off in 2024! 5 cats went to Orangeburg Veterinary Associates on 1/3 and 25 cats went to Charleston Animal Society on 1/9 for spays and neuters. In 2024, we spayed or neutered 1133 cats! This was only possible with the support of our amazing community, and we greatly appreciate everyone’s help.

Please consider sponsoring a TNR cat in 2025 or making a monthly donation to help with surgery costs. Each TNR cat is $65. Let’s work together to reduce the stray cat population in our community!

We send happy Christmas wishes to all our sweet kitties who were recently adopted!

Marshmallow

After being at our shelter for three years, Marshmallow found his forever home! When Mission Meow selected our rescue as a recipient of one of their wonderful grants, they learned about Marshmallow and wanted to help him find his forever home. After Mission Meow shared his story, a woman in Virginia fell in love with Marshmallow and decided to let him join her family. Although he was shy at first, he has settled in and is doing great. We are thrilled that Marshmallow found his person!
