Shelter FAQs

PAW Animal Shelter is a 501c3, non profit No-Kill Shelter serving the Southeast part of Iowa for the past 15+ years. It is our mission to supply a safe, loving enviroment to stray, lost, abandoned or surrendered animals until we find them a loving "forever home".
PAW allows adoptions throughout the Continental United States. We feel if you are willing to give one of our amazing animals a forever home, you should not be denied because of your location. However PAW Animal Shelter does not commercially fly any of our animals. Arrangements must be made by the adopting family to get their newest family member home.
