We would like to give a HUGE THANK YOU to Felicia Myers, Pat Alfrey, and our Paws from Paradise Flight Coordinator Wayne Myers for all of their incredible fundraising efforts to support our Paws from Paradise program! They put their heads together and created a whole line of Paws from Paradise wine tumblers, which they have been selling near and far to keep our flight program alive. Today, they presented us with a check for $1,800!!! This fundraising effort will go directly to the Paws from Paradise program.

Didn’t get your tumbler? No worries! coming soon: full sized tumblers!

Hello, we're Blitzen, Mistletoe, & Snowflake, three curious pups full of life! Our story is a magical one ✨. We were born in a world of whimsy, where fireflies painted the night sky and the wind whispered tales of adventure. One day, we found a mysterious portal that led us to this shelter. It was a bit scary at first, but we've grown to love it here 🫶🏽. We've made friends, learned new tricks, and discovered that humans give the best belly rubs! However, we're ready for a new adventure. We're playful yet mellow, and we promise to fill your home with joy and laughter. ❤️ Adopt us, and let's create magical memories together! Take a look at our website www.stcroixawc.org or call us @ 340-642-1322 today!

It’s Waggin Wednesday!

Join our friend The Host With The Most Todd Newton by supporting our shelter! Todd Newton has traveled the world, but his heart is always with the St. Croix Animal Welfare Center. We are so blessed to count him as one of our friends. Please show your support today on #givingtuesday and make a donation to help our shelter pets! Every dollar helps! StCroixAWC.org/donate

The St. Croix Animal Welfare Center has affected all of our lives on St Croix. Have you adopted a pet from us? Used our low-cost community clinic? Did we reunite you with your lost pet? Take a moment and think about the St. Croix Animal Welfare Center and all of the programs we offer our community. Now imagine, if we close our doors forever. The St. Croix Animal Welfare Center is at risk of downsizing our operations due to lack of the recent reliability in VI government contract payouts. We are in desperate need of donations. Please support the St. Croix Animal Welfare Center. Every dollar counts. You can help keep us open. You can make a difference. Please donate on our website https://stcroixawc.org/donate/

This #GivingTuesday, please join our friends in supporting the St. Croix Animal Welfare Center! 2024 has been a difficult year for SCAWC. We faced inconsistent government funding, massive setbacks, and a huge influx of unwanted and abandoned animals. Despite the major issues facing SCAWC, we continued providing free community services such as spay/neuter, TVNR for feral cares, and we kept our veterinary clinic low cost, despite the raising prices in the medical industry. We took on great challenges, at our own financial loss. We are asking you to please support our shelter today! Every dollar counts! You can help us keep our doors open. You can help us save lives. You can make a difference. Please donate to StCroixAWC.org/donate or click the button below!

Why are these pups serving time? YOU can come bail them out today! Put them in house arrest in their FURever home! All of our adoptable pets are waiting for you at our Five Corners location while The Pet Place is undergoing maintenance.

It’s Waggin Wednesday!

LAST BAG OF DOG FOOD! Everything was handed out by 2:20pm! We are thrilled that 69 pet owners are feeding their pups for free tonight. People travelled across the island to participate in today’s food bank event. “Thank you for this. They’re killing us on dog food,” said one man. SCAWC has big plans to make a community food bank a regular occurrence on St. Croix. We were thrilled to help so many pet owners across the island. Through The Pet Project, SCAWC was able to procure 2,000 pounds of dog food at low cost. If you would like to help support this program, and contribute toward the cost of pet food, you can make a donation here: StCroixAWC.org/donate. You can choose “food bank” in the drop down menu.

It’s Waggin Wednesday!
