Happy Holidays from Paws & Claws Feline Rescue

Happy Holidays from Paws & Claws Feline Rescue

Tis The Season already! Paws & Claws has had a wonderful year! It’s been our best ever and we expect to have over 175 adoptions by the end of the year! That makes a total of almost 700 lives we’ve saved in our five years! We now have our cats in three locations: PetSmart and Cole’s Cat & Dog Rescue in Statesville, and Petco in Mooresville.

Our poor homeless cats and kittens need your help! In order to continue our successful program, Paws & Claws Feline Rescue needs donations to feed and vet over eighty cats and kittens currently in our program. We couldn’t do it without your support as it costs a minimum of $100.00 for every cat we accept into the program. Every penny goes to the program, unlike the big charities where the pets may get a dime of every dollar. We are a registered charity and your donation is tax deductible.

We also couldn’t survive without our wonderful volunteers. Please consider volunteering your time to foster, clean cages, or help on adoption Saturdays. It is a very worthy cause and we definitely need help if Paws & Claws Feline Rescue is going to continue it’s good work. Please send us an
e-mail if you can help.

Thank you to everyone who has supported us this year and best wishes for a very Happy Holiday!

PetSmart Charities National Adoption Weekend

Celebrate the Season by Adopting a Pet at PetSmart Charities® National Adoption Weekend, November 15-17

As we head into the holiday season, we find ourselves reflecting on what we’re most thankful for. Anyone who has adopted a pet often puts their companion at the top of that list – and it’s mutual for that deserving cat or dog. Luckily, if you’re interested in adding a new four-legged friend to your family, you can do so at the PetSmart Charities National Adoption Weekend, Nov. 15-17 at your neighborhood PetSmart^® store in City Statesville.

PetSmart Charities will also reward all participating local adoption partners, including partner organization; each will receive $35 in adoption-reward grants for every pet adopted during the event. National Adoption Weekends are sponsored by PetSmart, Purina^® Pro Plan^® and Tidy Cats^® (MAXX Scoop^® in Canada).

How to Adopt

In addition to the PetSmart store in Statesville, you can visit the PetSmart Charities’ adoption center inside any PetSmart store in the United States, Canada or Puerto Rico from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 15 and Saturday, Nov. 16; and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 17.
