Avoyelles Animal Welfare Society
Who We Are
Avoyelles Animal Welfare Society (AAWS) is an all volunteer non-profit organization established August 25, 2006 to provide assistance to abused, abandoned and neglected animals in Avoyelles Parish. Our ultimate goal of building an animal shelter for Avoyelles will soon be a reality.
Until our shelter is built you can help by fostering a cat or dog that is in our care.
Foster care consists of providing a safe, loving home for a homeless pet until a permanent home can be found.
People who love pets but cannot adopt one now have another way to help. You can help a dog or cat in our care by making a one time donation.Your donation will help to maintain the animals by buying food, medication and will help to pay our Veterinarian bills.
Join AAWS today. Single membership is $20.00 annually or $30.00 annually for families. Membership is valid for one year from the date of application.
Adopting a friend
The adoption fee is $80.00. This includes spay or neuter and the first set of shots. If a puppy or kitten is adopted, a certificate is given entitling them to spay or neuter. All animals are guaranteed to be healthy.
To adopt an animal you must be over the age of 18 and able to provide adequate food, water, shelter and reasonable medical care. We also ask for a Veterinarian reference.
Must comply with our spay/neuter policy if a puppy or kitten is adopted.
We prefer dogs to be kept in a fenced in yard and cats to be kept indoors.
If in the event the adoption does not work out, the adopter will return the animal to AAWS.
Adoption days currently held every Saturday at Petsmart in Alexandria, LA.
