PAWS/Petco Adoption Day Today!

If you can't make it to Petco in Florence today, be sure to call PAWS of the Shoals about adopting or fostering. We promise it will be the best call you ever made.

We're Doggedly Pursuing Homes...

We know you're aware of pet overpopulation and the unwanted animals it leads to, but do you know what you can do about it? We're also sure you've winced when you've seen a starving stray animal on a county road, but sometimes it's been easier to look the other way. Let's resolve today to change that.

We don't think we can save every unwanted animal. We don't think that you can feed every stray that enters your yard. We do think that together we can make a difference--starting now.

We don't promise a new blog every day, but we do promise to post often. Each blog will feature a dog or cat (or other small animal) that is currently confined to a local animal shelter. You might not be able to adopt this pet, but you may know someone who can. You may be able to print out the blog and post it at your office, or the corner market, or that little barbecue joint down the road. We thank you in advance for any and all efforts.

Saturday, August 22, 2009, is Adoption Day at Petco in Florence. Representatives from PAWS of the Shoals will be at Petco from Noon until 4:00 p.m. If you're in the area please stop by and visit with these wonderful volunteers who give so much of their time to help those who can't help themselves.
