We are a true no-kill shelter, and will do whatever we can, however long it takes, to find suitable, loving homes for the animals in our care. PAWS is a no kill shelter that has been helping homeless animals since 1962. We have Cats and Dogs for adoption, 12-4pm Tuesday thru Sunday! You do need an appointment to visit now, and you must be an approved adopter.

We are really excited to introduce Lug Nut, our famous Wrench's new BFF. Lug Nut is her (surprise!) new brother-from-another-mother! Lug Nut is very outgoing and a real lap kitten. He is really helping Wrench get over her trauma. They will be ready for adoption together in a few weeks.

Clam Strip is yet another tiny kitten who came to Paws in extremely critical condition. Clammy is about 5 weeks old and only 3/4 of a pound. Clammy was hypothermic and suffering from extreme flea anemia. The entire Paws team rallied to save little Clammy. He is now with his foster and we are very pleased with his progress. Clammy will need some time to grow and we hope to find him a best buddy soon.

Today we're checking in with two of our favorite Islanders, Steinway and Bob, fresh from the confessional couch! And let me tell ya, things have been, well, a journey in the Love Island: Purrfect Match villa.They've had an absolute blast, haven't they? All those new faces, all that drama... and even though they haven't quite found their forever human yet, they've absolutely coupled up in the friendship stakes. Proper best buds, these two!
Now, for a bit of villa news: remember Birthday Cake? Well, she's only gone and found her perfect match and been adopted! Buzzing for her, truly. But a few of our other lovely Islanders, Neko, Berkley & Nerissa, are still looking for that special someone to sweep them off their paws.
So, if you're feeling that connection and think you could be their type on paper, head over to pawsct.org and fill out an application! Don't be a mug, go meet them today!
