It’s SHELTER APPRECIATION WEEK! 🎉 and we love our team!

Shelter Appreciation Week is a time to recognize and celebrate the important role that shelters play in our communities. These facilities provide a safe haven for homeless animals, offering them food, shelter, and care until they can find their forever homes. This week is an opportunity to show gratitude towards the staff and volunteers who work tirelessly to provide for the animals in their care and promote adoption. It is also a chance for the public to learn more about the impact that shelters have on the lives of animals and how they can support their local shelters. By promoting awareness and appreciation for shelters, we can help reduce the number of homeless animals and ensure that every animal has a chance at a loving home. So let's take this week to show our appreciation for shelters and all the amazing work they do for our furry friends!

It’s Coonhound season here and these babies need families!

Hazel, Bobbie, Elvira and Snoopy are just four of dozens of Coonhounds that enter our shelter each year. Many come in as unaltered strays that are never claimed and sit in the shelter for many months. If you’ve had the pleasure of owning one, you know they are some of the goofiest and sweetest dogs! They do LOVE to sing frequently and aren’t your usual couch potatoes. They spend so long in shelters usually due to the lack of training they’ve had (such as being permanently outside hunting dogs) and that they love to bay, which can be tricky if you live in town.

We KNOW there’s homes for these babies. Bobbie, in the middle, has been with us since June. He was adopted briefly but returned. Hazel (first) is newer this month while Snoopy (last) has been with us since the beginning of September and Elvira (black) came in October with no interest. Most Coonhounds due to their overly friendly and happy-go energy do great in homes with other dogs!

In honor of Reptile Awareness Day, I think it's time we give some love to our scaly friends. After all, they're just misunderstood creatures who deserve some appreciation.

Happy Reptile Awareness Day!

Meet the “N” kittens!

Nimbus, Napoleon, Newt, Nibbler, and Noodle are 10 week old domestic short haired kitties that are full of life and super friendly! However they are special kitties…

The “N” kittens have Feline Leukemia Virus, commonly called FeLV. FeLV is a retrovirus that affects less than 5% of the feline population and is found to be spread through continuous common contact between cats, such as grooming and sharing of litter boxes and bowls. This virus is specific to cats (because they have to be special, right?) and not found to be transmitted to humans or dogs.

This just means that the “N” kittens either need to be the only kitty in the home or be in a home with other FeLV positive cats! Along with that, they do need a strictly indoor home to avoid possibly spreading it to other cats.

FeLV is a death sentence for many, but we believe the “N” kittens can get their furr-ever home. Can you help us?

Adopt today at www.pawspets.org/cat-application!

We are searching for a new/used washer!

We go through multiple loads daily, and our animals here depend on our washer for clean linens. With animals coming in left and right, our current washer cannot keep up with the amount of laundry as it is quite out of date. 🐕

We are asking for donations or any contribution that anyone could possibly make! You can donate at www.pawspets.org/donate, Venmo -welfaresociety or use the button on this post!

Ps. This is Petunia, she is available for adoption! You can view her at www.pawspets.org/adopt! ❤️

National Vet Tech Week is an annual celebration that takes place during the third week of October. It is a time to recognize and show appreciation for the important contributions of veterinary technicians in the animal healthcare field. This week is dedicated to raising awareness about the veterinary profession and the vital role that vet techs play in the care and well-being of animals. It is also a time for veterinary clinics and hospitals to honor and thank their hardworking, dedicated vet techs for their commitment to providing quality care for animals.
