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 Peanut & Nala *Bonded Pair*

Peanut & Nala are your typical sibling duo; plucky and adorable to an off-the-charts level of unfairness. Their mother quite literally made herself at home by wandering into her caretakers home, upon which she quickly gave birth to a small litter and made herself only the third worst houseguest (she'd be ranked higher up, but you know...kittens). Peanut and Nala are just starting to hit their stride as curious and confident little nuggets, so finding them an active and social home to provide them with the structure and enrichment they crave will make them into the world's most amazing houseguests for so many more years to come! Nala, either by preference or just by being so tiny while stuck in her spay cone, is a bit more reserved and shy than her brother Peanut. Peanut, either by design or genetics, is as brave as he is boisterous and is currently in the midst of his "scream until you hold me and then I'm a perfect angel but you better not ever let me go again" phase. They will need and love as much attention as you have to give, and when you aren't there for that they will accept offers of wet food and a bottomless toy bin. They would do well in pretty much any home, including those with children! Due to Peanut being cryptorchid he will need to wait a few months until being neutered, so this duo isn't available through a traditional adoption route. PAWS will still be able to complete his neuter when he is a little bit older, which our staff is happy to discuss more with his potential new family! **Because Peanut is not yet altered, they are only eligible for adoption via our Pre-Adopt program, which will require an additional contract as well as a $100 deposit that is fully refunded after their neuter surgery. Any additional questions about this can be covered by our staff!** Age: ~2 months old How I came to PAWS: Found Stray Animal ID#: A179520 & A179523 Meet me at: PAWS Adoption Center 100 North 2nd Street, Philadelphia, PA 19106 ​215-238-9901 ext.30 **Our Old City Adoption Center prioritizes appointments made by already approved applicants, but we can accommodate browsers and walk-ins if and as our capacity allows.
