Animal Welfare Association South Jersey's oldest and largest animal shelter, low-cost pet clinic and much, much more! NOTE: Our Clinic and Adoption Center have different hours.

AWA was founded in 1948 by a small group of community activists who wanted to address and help the issue of unwanted pets in our community. In our adoption program, we have dogs and puppies, cats and kittens, rabbits, guinea pigs and other small animals. We also have a pet clinic that allows us to further our mission to provide affordable, high-quality healthcare to pets in our community. You can

bring your pet in for routine exams, vaccines, spaying/neutering and more. For more information, please visit https://www.awanj.org/pet-clinic/

Let's bring a Holiday Miracle to our two long-term residents. John Wayne and Clint Eastwood have been at AWA since September, and they are hoping for a good home this Holiday season. They are a bonded pair, so we are looking for someone who is able to adopt two best friends at the same time. To keep best friends together, we let adopters take home bonded pairs at a reduced adoption fee for the second animal.

If you are not able to adopt, you can still support us by sharing these adorable faces.

A huge, wagging thank you to the Petfinder Foundation for awarding the Animal Welfare Association, Inc. with a 2024 Kia Pet Adoption Grant! This grant has supported our “Can’t Buy Me Love” program, which waives adoption fees for our special furry friends facing age, health, or behavior challenges. 🐾💕

These sweet souls often wait a little longer for their forever homes, and with this program, adopters can focus on showering them with the love, training, and care they deserve.
