For the time being, we are no longer accepting surrenders of dogs or puppies. In the past few weeks, there have been a large number of surrenders and close to 0 adoptions (for both dogs and cats), which has led to the overcrowding issue we are currently facing. This is a common problem that plagues us and many other animal shelters.
We plead for you to adopt dogs/cats if you are looking for a pet. It doesn’t even have to be from PAWS – all your local animal shelters have plenty of wonderful furkids waiting for a new home. You have the power to change their lives for the better.
That aside, while adoptions do help, the biggest contributor to the vast number of unwanted animals is unneutered and unspayed animals. As long as they are free to reproduce, the population will continue growing and so will the needless suffering of their offspring and every generation that follows.
What can you do? Please neuter/spay your pets to prevent this from happening, and if at all possible, bring the stray dogs/cats in your area to a vet for neutering/spaying (but only if they are friendly enough that you can handle them without risking any harm to yourself).
There are hundreds of animal shelters across the country but none of us, not even with our combined efforts can even come close to achieving our goal of solving this problem without the help of you, the general public. We are here and we will never stop fighting for this cause, and we will work with you and help to the best of our ability. This is not about PAWS specifically, so if you prefer to work with another animal NGO, please do so. This is not about any of us. This is about helping the poor, suffering animals out there who have done nothing wrong to deserve such a terrible fate.
If you agree with this message, please share and spread it to your friends and family.
