PAWS Shelter: Donations of Supplies Needed

PAWS Shelter: Donations of Supplies Needed!



Donations of supplies for the shelter are always needed.


If you wish to donate supplies, please visit our animal shelter (directions and map at parc.mefindhome. org, or call 475-1688).


The following are the Most Needed / Urgent Items:

  • Cat food (dry cat kibble, any brand)
  • Canned cat food (any brand) - for baby kittens.
  • Newspapers - to line our Feline Quarantine cages and Feline Sick Bay cages, changed twice a day, so we need a lot! (A good idea for school projects: a newspaper drive for the animal shelter.)
  • Detergent Powder - for daily cleaning of dog runs, kennels, cattery, quarantine cages, etc.
  • Zonrox - to keep the animal areas disinfected and disease-free!
  • Dishwashing Liquid - for twice-daily washing of more or less 200 pet food bowls.

You may drop off your donations at the shelter during open hours, Mon-Sat 10am-6pm.

Our deepest thanks to everyone who has donated time, money, and / or resources to help out our shelter animals! You really do make a difference!



-From the people and animals of PAWS




When we wince at the suffering of animals, that feeling speaks well of us.., and those who dismiss love for our fellow creatures as mere sentimentality overlook a good and important part of our humanity. But it takes nothing away from a human to be kind to an animal. And it is actually within us to grant them a happy life … and a long one. On the heath, King Lear asked Gloucester: “How do you see the world?” And Gloucester, who is blind, answered: “I see it feelingly.” I see it feelingly. -Shaun Monson, Earthlings
