Volunteers Who Match Pets with Loving Homes

Located in Perry County, OH,  PAWS – Perry Animal Welfare Society is a 501(c)3 that was established in 2018. Our mission is to re-home dogs and cats with loving and committed families.

Polly and Callie were strays. Thankfully a kind person cared enough to befriend them and care for them while we provided veterinary care. They have been spayed, vaccinated and feline tested.

We wanted to provide you with a quick update on our trashcan kitty, now known as Roseberry. She is in a temporary foster home, and as soon as we get her, checked out at our vet clinic, we will be accepting applications for a foster to adopt home. She is in remarkably good shape for her circumstances. She’s had two baths to remove the trashcan stench, and is using the litter box like a champ. It also appears she’s made a friend with the dog in her foster home. We’d like to thank like to thank the foster family that’s so quickly stepped up so we could save this baby. Work like this is not possible without people like them. ... See MoreSee Less
