🐾 We have a lot of new faces here so allow me introduce myself.

Whether you’re here for the first time or you’ve been with us from the start, I’m Kimmie DiBenedetto, your PAWs Director, and I’m beyond excited to have you on this journey! 🐶🐱

It all began in 2020 with a simple (but mighty) idea to give back.

Fast forward to 2023, and our first tournament was a howling success! 🏆

Thanks to your support, we’ve raised an incredible $33,000, which was donated to the Parma Animal Shelter, where I proudly volunteer.

Together, we're not just wagging tails—we're making a real difference. 🌟

Here’s to many more pawsitive impacts, fur-tastic fun, and tail-wagging victories! 🐾

Be sure to RSVP to the 2025 - Play for the PAWS Superdraft - Theme - PAWgaritaville

Happy Birthday to my mom, Deb. She is the master of the raffles, a lot of the baskets you have won ( ) She has made. She is always movin' and shaking and of course keeping Jason and everyone else in line.

We are so thankful her and all her help! Have the best day, Deb!

The PAWS community sends their love and support to Jess and Joe as their rescue Juneau crossed the rainbow bridge this morning. 🌈🌉

I watched these two give Juneau the best life ever imaginable for 13 years.

See that’s the thing about rescues, you think you’re rescuing them but really they rescue you.

The unconditional love showed by humans and animals is really indescribable until you experience it.

We love you guys and thinking of you. 🐾❤️

Ok PAWS fam… 🐾

I really need help finding this baby a home. It’s a boy, estimated to be about a year old. He is getting neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped this coming Monday.

They would like him to recover with his current caretaker before place he gets placed in an inside home.

He was likely dumped and is very sweet (no hissing, no scratching, using his litter box) but scared.

He’s going to be an awesome pet once he is comfortable!

Please share and I can connect you with the the amazing person that is helping this pretty boy currently. 🫶🏻
