Become A Guardian Angel For A Dog Or Cat

Centre County PAWS was established in 1980. For almost 40 years we have been committed to finding forever homes for cats and dogs, educating citizens on responsible pet ownership, providing spay / neuter assistance, and ending pet overpopulation. We are a non-euthanasia, member-supported, volunteer-enabled organization dedicated to the Promotion of Animal Welfare and Safety.

FOSTER AN ANIMAL

PAWS is able to help hundreds of cats and dogs find new homes each year because of the generosity of its foster families. You do not need professional experience to become a PAWS foster parent. All it takes is a loving heart, basic knowledge about the type of animal you will foster, good observation skills, and a desire to help companion animals.FOSTER AN ANIMAL
