Description
Foster/Adoption Program - Fostering is an integral part of our organization as it allows us to place dogs, cats, and other abandoned, orphaned, or surrendered animals into loving homes whitle they wait for a permanent adoptive family. We provide support and veterinary care.
Spay/Neuter Program - This program assists families in Colbert, Franklin, and Lauderdale Counties that receive government assistance in having their companion animals spayed or neutered at little-to-no cost. PAWS believes the key to reaching our goal of a sustainable no-kill community is to reduce the population by spaying and neutering.
Trap Neuter Release(TNR) Program - A TNR program was established to evaluate the possibility of promoting a more humane method of dealing with Feral cats.
