REMEMBER TO BRING YOUR PETS INSIDE DURING THE COLD. IF YOU THINK YOUR PET DOESN'T FEEL THE COLD, THEN PUT ON A FURCOAT AND TRY SLEEPING IN A DOGHOUSE OR WITHOUT SHELTER.

YOUR ANIMAL WILL DIE FROM HYPOTHERMIA IF LEFT OUT IN THIS WEATHER

PAWS IS IN NEED OF BLANKETS TO HELP KEEP OUR FRIENDS WARMER IN THIS WEATHER. IF YOU CAN SPARE A BLANKET THEY WOULD BE SO GRATEFUL.

REASONS TO ADOPT!,

*You want to write Research paper on why dogs like to smell other dog’s butts.

* Pets are cheaper than children

* A pet is a great wingman for picking up dates at the park.

* You will get into shape - exercise is a great side effect of having an active pet.

* Your dog/cat needs a new playmate

* You need a best friend.

* At bedtime you can be covered by love and pet warmth.

* You enjoy wet kisses.

* You need a few more muddy prints to complete your home decor.

* You will have someone who will listen for hours.

* You’ve noticed your current “vacuums” aren’t doing their job.

* You need a few more smudges on your window to deter nosy neighbors.

* You just got a notice in your mailbox that you are way behind on your barking quota.

* You enjoy giving and getting unconditional love.

* YOU SAVE A LIFE!

Instead of feeding an industry that continues to produce animals even while there are scores of homeless and unwanted pets, you can give a loving pet another chance at a happy life.

You help to combat pet overpopulation. There are simply not enough homes for all the pets that need a family to call their own. Pets adopted from a shelter are usually spayed or neutered prior to being released to their new homes.

Pets of all ages can form a strong bond to a new family. You will be providing a deserving pet with a loving & secure home... while at the same time gaining a devoted friend.

News

Pontotoc Animal Welfare Society was incorporated as a nonprofit, charitable orgainization in September, 1982. PAWS operates the animal shelter for the purpose of sheltering lost, unwanted, sick and injured animals until a new home can be found or the animal is humanely disposed. PAWS also has an agreement with the city of Ada for the placement of impounded dogs and cats. These animals must be kept for 72 hours allowing the owner time to reclaim. Donations to this organization are tax deductible. We are always in need of collars, leashes, canned cat and dog food, treats, toys, bath towels, paper towels, pens and paper. We love having visitors. Please come and see our new "cat room" where cats can be free in a nice sunny room to play and sleep. PAWS also now has a "visiting room". There you can take the dog/cat that you like and get to know them better. WAGS, WOOFS and MEOWS from all the furkids at PAWS and thank you for visiting our site.

Adopting a friend

Remember when you adopt a fur kid, they will need time to adjust to their new enviornment. Positive training with lots of yummy treats and lots of love will help make the transition go more smoothly. We will always be here to help with any questions and can refer you to good trainers if needed. PAWS is open Monday - Friday to the public from 10:00 am until 4:00pm AND Saturday from 10:00am through 2:00pm. We are closed to the public on Sunday. Adoption fee for dogs is $70.00 and cats $30.00 PAWS is in need of volunteers for various tasks. Should you have a desire to help, please contact pawsnada@aol.com. It can be very rewarding work and fun.. Would you like to be a foster parent? This would help PAWS help more of the furkids. References and home visit are required.
