Philadelphia Animal Welfare Society

PAWS is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to saving Philadelphia’s homeless, abandoned, and unwanted animals. PAWS is Philadelphia's largest no-kill shelter and is working to make Philadelphia a city in which every healthy and treatable pet is guaranteed a home. Through its adoption locations, special events, and foster care network, PAWS finds loving homes for thousands of animals each year.In March 2010, PAWS opened a low-cost, high-volume spay/neuter and wellness clinic serving pet owners and rescues in an effort to keep pets healthy and reduce the homeless pet population. Located in the Grays Ferry section of the city, the Clinic serves pet owners who have difficulty affording or do not have access to basic veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, treatments for upper respiratory infections/parasites/fleas, etc.) and rescue organizations that need affordable spay/neuter surgery and basic veterinary care to carry out their lifesaving work. Support for PAWS funds lifesaving initiatives including adoption and foster care programs, spay/neuter surgeries, low-cost vaccinations, and other efforts, all of which help reduce and will ultimately eliminate the unnecessary killing of Philadelphia's animals. Donations to PAWS are tax-deductible to the fullest extent allowed by law.

Meet Cheddar

Found in rough shape as a stray, this young, playful, medium-hair guy overcame a few health issues and is now coming into his own. Cheddar has been having a great time with his fosters (three students), but now it's time to settle down with a forever family. He has requested the following for his new home:   Canned Fancy Feast A long hallway for jingle ball zoomies Lots of fuzzy blankets for making biscuits Plenty of fun toys A large litter box (he loves to cover!) People willing to work on his kitty manners (not perfect quite yet) An active household that loves to play Though Cheddar has never interacted with other cats, dogs, or small children, he is still a kitten and open to new adventures. He's looking forward to a delicious new life...wit wiz. Age: 9 months How I came to PAWS: Found as stray. Animal ID#: A53359 ​I am not at the shelter. Please email my foster parent at [email protected] to learn more about me!
