Our Featured Pet...
Cheeseit needs a loving home!
Cheeseit (like the Cheeze-it crackers) was rescued as part of a Trap-Neuter-Release effort after living outside for several months. He was very thin and covered with wounds all over his frail body. He also was one of the sweetest young men, wanting nothing more than to be pet and loved (and Fed!)
Cheeseit is only about a year old and very very loveable. He has been waiting for a new home for quite a while.
Unfortunatly the vet bills to repair all of his injuries have been overwhelming.
If you are interested in helping with Cheeseit's medical treatment, please click on the PayPal link provided. Every little bit helps and is very much appreciated.
If you are interested in adopting this wonderful boy, please contact us and we would be glad to help!!

Fur the Love of Paws is there!!!
Fur the Love of Paws is an Charitable, 501c3 organization started by a group of dedicated animal lovers, with a combined 25+ years of rescue experience, who wanted to make a difference in the lives of homeless animals. Currently being operated by volunteers and foster homes, our goal is to provide a shelter for homeless, neglected and unwanted cats and eventually dogs and to open a center to provide sanctuary for animals where euthanasia is never an option for a healthy animal.
We are working tirelessly to raise funds for a new facility to operate in!
By opening a facility without having to rely on foster homes, we will be able to greatly increase the number of pets we can help. We will be able to offer shelter to those animals that may need some extra time before they are adoptable, and offer sanctuary for those who may never be ready.

Who/Why We Are
We are a not for profit, non-euthanizing, up and coming cat (and eventually, dog) shelter/sanctuary. The three founders who started our organization have a combined 25 years of animal rescue experience. As fate would have it, we all ended up working with the same group, and as time went by, we learned that there are many more animals in desperate need of homes than the already overcrowded shelters can handle. As a consequence, thousands of animals are euthanized each year in Maryland alone, simply due to lack of space in shelters. So we decided to volunteer our time and start our own rescue organization, not only for the extreme need, but for our unconditional love of animals. Fur the Love of Paws...Our Purpose
* To rescue and provide shelter, food and medical care for abandoned, abused, neglected and unwanted pets. To eventually re-home these pets into loving families.*To provide a loving, permanent home/sanctuary for geriatric, handicapped or otherwise less adoptable pets at our sanctuary that would not have other sheltering options available to them.
*To support and conduct educational and informational activities to increase public awareness or animal overpopulation, neglect/abuse and proper pet care.
*To provide educational/service learning opportunities for both youth and adult groups in all aspects of animal behavior and care, Either on site, or in schools, etc.
*To provide therapy programming to assisted living, nursing homes, hospital and hospice facilities to educate and enhance the lives of elderly, infirmed or terminal patients.
* to increase public awareness of the benefits of animals in our society and personal lives.
