PAWS (Pets are Wonderful Support) provides task, financial, and informational assistance to pet owners living with HIV/AIDS to ensure that they are not separated from their animal companions when they need each other the most.
In 2017, 139 clients and 211 pets received PAWS services, 17,482 lbs of pet food, litter, and treats were distributed, 226 veteranarian assistance appointments were made, and 20 pets received in-home and foster care assistance.
All total, PAWS provided over 657 days of help through 34 volunteers to provide our members with:
In-home pet care when a client is ill
Dog walking, litter box changing, grooming, feeding
Food, supplies, and medical care for pets
Education through PAWS Safe Pet Guidelines
Transportation to vet and grooming services
Health and educational information, including "safe pet" guidelines for pet owners with HIV/AIDS
