My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Simba, who is 15 years old, was surrendered to the shelter today. Dad has gone to assisted living and the family wants to travel so they don't want him. Yes, he is an older gentleman but seems to love people. He is pacing a lot right now as his whole world has been completely turned upside down. He has an appointment with the vet on Monday, 03/04/2024, and will be fully vetted before he goes home. He is neutered and has had shots in the past but he needs to be updated. He does appear to have some vision loss but seems to hear pretty well. He is a sweet boy just looking for a soft place to lay his head with someone who will love him until his last day. Please think about opening your heart to this precious boy. He may be toward the end of his life but he still has a lot of love to give and a lot of life to live. He will warm your heart for the precious time you will have with him. He is 6 lbs and is a miniature pinscher. His adoption fee is $100. Please go to pawspaws.org to complete the PAWS application and make this boy part of your family. He just wants to be loved...

Additional adoption info

Dogs: The adoption fees for PAWS puppies and dogs start at $200. Occasionally, the adoption fee will be higher and, if that is the case, it will be noted on the animal's profile. When you adopt your new dog or puppy, it will be spayed or neutered, wormed, micro-chipped, and up to date on routine shots. If it is six months or older, it will have been tested for heartworms and placed on a heartworm preventative.

Cats: The adoption fee for most PAWS kittens and cats is $75. When you adopt your new cat or kitten, it will be spayed or neutered, wormed, micro-chipped, and up to date on its shots, with the exception of its rabies shot, which must be given by a vet. IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO ADOPT A CAT OR KITTEN, BE SURE TO BRING A CARRIER OR PET TAXI WITH YOU. WE CANNOT SEND A CAT/KITTEN HOME UNLESS IT IS IN A CARRIER/PET TAXI.

We certainly recommend that you continue your pet's routine vaccination regimen with your veterinarian.

SAME DAY ADOPTIONS ARE NOT ALWAYS POSSIBLE, SO IF YOU ARE DRIVING FROM A DISTANCE, PLEASE MAKE ADVANCE ARRANGEMENTS.

IF YOU RENT, YOU MUST BRING A SIGNED RENTAL AGREEMENT FROM YOUR LANDLORD STATING THAT IT IS OKAY FOR YOU TO HAVE AN ANIMAL IN THE HOUSE. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A RENTAL AGREEMENT, YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE THE COMPANION ANIMAL OF YOUR CHOICE HOME WITH YOU.

OUT OF STATE ADOPTERS ARE ASKED TO PAY THE ADOPTION FEE IN CASH.

PAWS IS NOW EQUIPPED TO TAKE CREDIT CARDS.

If you are interested in adopting, please e-mail Kareel at pawsplace1@yahoo.com, and she will get back to you as soon as possible. If you live in the area, please come see us!!
