Please remember the homeless animals during this special time of hope and giving. Any donation is greatly appreciated.
We have been blessed this year by so many generous people.
Jeff Powell, an Eagle Scout,and his family have given their time to donate an Isolation Building for new arrivals that are sick. We still need many items for that. If you are interested in helping supply the new building with a fridge, ceramic heater, cupboards, countertop,linoleum, etc. please contact the shelter at 641-257-0766 or email Michele at pawpaw7@mchsi.com.
We also had an anonymous donation to help get our TNR program off the ground. This was extremely generous and most appreciated.
A gal in CA donated a new wheelchair for Andy, our shelter cat who is disabled. He is going through an adjustment period with it now, but it should enable him to get back to what he does best, being the "Protector of all the cats!"
We are so very grateful to those who continue to donate monthly, whether it is of newspapers, cleaning supplies, toys, etc. We love having the chance to chat with you and thank you for your generosity in person. Without your continued support there would be no PAWS! We need you, the animals need you!
Please consider donating your time as well. We always can use volunteers to help clean or walk dogs. We can also use your support on our Board. We would love to have you attend our monthly meetings. If you need info on any of the above please call the shelter.
If you would like to help but just can not adopt a pet, please consider sponsoring a kennel for just $10 a month. Your name will be placed on the kennel. You have the choice of which kennel to sponsor.
A special thank you to all of our dedicated volunteers who put in many hours a week to make our animals feel special. You are the driving force behind everything we do!
Bless you all during this Holiday Season!

Please tell all your friends and family to go to the above link and go to Floyd County Humane Society/PAWS Humane Society, register, and wait for the verification. And if you like add your pet(s), etc.
We have waited a very long time for a new building and so have the animals. We are going to give this our best shot but we need YOUR help to do it. There are some bigger shelters in Michigan and Texas that are in the top 4 with alot of points.
***Please*** it only takes a minute to do. Best of all, you can do it while your sitting at home watching TV, etc.
Thank you so much for thinking of the animals!

Eagle Scout Project to benefit PAWS shelter cats
Jeff Powell, needs your help to complete an isolation building/storage building for PAWS Humane Society before winter. The building will be used to house incoming cats that may harbor illnesses and are kept isolated from the rest of the cat population to prevent the spread of any communicable disease. This project will advance Powell to the next level of scouting, which is the Eagle Scout.
Powell has raised some funds by contacting some local businesses. He has raised nearly $800. To complete the project, Powell will need approximately $2000-$3000. A concrete foundation has already been poured thanks to Kamm Excavating, Allied Construction, and Deboest Concrete. Wubbens Electric will be donating the electrical supplies.
Accounts have been set up for Powell's project at First Security Bank and Trust, and First Citizens National Bank, all of Charles City.
PAWS is very grateful to Jeff and all those who have donated to this project.
If you have any questions, please contact the shelter at 641-257-0766.
Thank you!
