DOWN TO OUR LAST FEW DOLLARS!!!

We currently have 1 dog and 1 cat in foster care and we are unable to help anything else without your donations.  Our organization is so small and we’ve managed to save @400 animals … we can’t do it anymore without your help.

PLEASE DONATE TODAY!  Send your cheque to:

Central Paws Humane Society

P.O. Box 294

Today we picked up a kitten, 5-6 months old.  The first place we had to head for was the vet’s to ensure it was virus free.  At that time we booked his neutering.  THAT will take more than the last of our money.

Where we spend our funds, directly on the animals.  For instance, all Pepper’s veterinary cost have been taken care of through donations, he was vaccinated, neutered, flea prevention and dewormer, microchipped and has received food, collar, leash and had to go to the vet for a UTI first when we took him.  Pepper is still in foster care, still waiting for a home.

We also took in Lucy last month, she needed a new collar, leash, seat belt attachment and to go see the vet for vacinations, flea prevention and dewormer and good quality food.  Lucy will use the remainder of what we have in the bank.  Lucy has since been adopted.

  So, IF we don’t get any more donations, we can’t save any more animals … so please help us.

We also accept Canadian Tire Dollars, which helps us purchase items like collars, leashes, bowls etc.

We always need NEW items like litter boxes, scoops, Feline Fresh Kitty Litter, Preventative cat food/kitten food, toys, steal and/or ceramic bowls (not plastic).  Pepper needs chew toys, stuffed toys, grooming certificates, Chicken Soup Adult dry dog food.

As most animals are need specific, stocking up on food is something we don’t usually do.  Other items we use regularly we don’t mind getting a few of.

WE ARE ALSO LOOKING FOR SPACE TO BE DONATED FOR US TO USE FOR EMERGENCIES AND MEET AND GREETS.

About Us…

Central Paws Humane Society is NOT a rescue organization.  

 

WE HAVE NO SHELTER … we have NO paid staff.  We are strictly a small volunteer organization which operates mainly on donations.   We are not affiliated with any other organization.   We are a registered charity BN 89085 2809 RR0001 (www.cra.gc.ca/charities).

 

Part of what we do is helping animals find homes although the principle mandate of this group is to develop an organization which can address the underlying causes for pets being relinquished to shelters and rescue groups, abandoned or euthanized by owners and we define as prevention programs. This group has identified some of these causes to include:  

 · Indiscriminate breeding of pets.

· Behavioral problems.

· Moving and personal problems.

· Allergies.

· Inappropriate pets for lifestyle.

· Lack of knowledge about pet’s requirements.

· Afford ability.

Harley

Update:  I finally have a new name, now to get me a forever home.  My new name is Harley.  My Foster Mom says I’m quite the character.  I have no manners and I keep stealing the food from the other cats and pushing them out of their bowls.  Oh WELL I’m a kitten and they are older.  Maybe I’ll learn a few manners while I’m here.  I’m pretty cute and pretty cuddly.

My name WAS Jewel.  The people who had me thought I was a girl for a long time.  I am only 5-6 months old and I already need a new name and new owners.  Jeepers!!!  A lady from Central Paws picked me up today and brought me over to the vet clinic.  I was having fun playing with Doogie at the clinic for a long time, even though I was safely in a kennel.  I didn’t appreciate it very much having to go inside those swinging doors and WELL what the did to me next scared the jumpins out of me.  BUT I survived it and the lady from Central Paws was happy to hear I was A-OK tested negative.  She booked my neutering then … hmm I’m thinking I’m not going to like that much either.  OH WELL.

Mrs. then took me home, jeepers there was a very big dog in that car.  Then she put me downstairs and closed the gate so the big dog wouldn’t chase me, GOOD THINKING MRS.

I am a very nice gentle kitty, I met Max and he welcomed me with opened paws and I met Ted, he’s a big very old guy, Puss decided she wanted nothing to do with me and took off upstairs AND then I met Sparkle.  WELL Sparkle took a disliking to me right away, she’s a mean old broad … Ted was nice and told her back off.  Boy I hope she doesn’t sneak up on me in the night.

ANYHOW … they have lots of great food here, although apparently it was bought at the vets … I don’t know, I do like it though and it sure is better than the other stuff I had to eat, Special Kitty isn’t very nutritional you know.  They also have a cool kitty litter, Feline Fresh … better for the environment and better on us kitty cats, smells good too.

OH YEAH … Mrs. told me not to forget … I DO NEED TO FIND A HOME, A VERY GOOD HOME …. so please contact Central Paws at c.p.humanesociety@nl.rogers.com

THANKS … oh and if you have any suggestions for some cool boy cat names … I’m opened to some suggestions.  JEWEL what were they thinking.
