You Can Sponsor a PAWS Pet


Autumn MaxPAWS gives you the opportunity to sponsor a cat or a dog in need. Through the online credit card and cash transfer capabilities of PayPal, you can sponsor one or more animals on our adoption list for a month.

Your $25 tax-deductible donation will enable us to continue providing quality shelter and medical care to pets while they await adoption. Your name, or the names of your family and friends, will be displayed under the photograph of your chosen feline or canine – or if you prefer, you may remain anonymous. Be a hero! Help us help cats and dogs in need of loving homes by sponsoring a pet on our adoption page.
