Services

For over 25 years, PAWS has provided care and resources to help abandoned and abused animals in Central Pennsylvania. We serve Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Lancaster, Lebanon, Perry, and York Counties.

With the help of over 200 volunteers, local veterinarians and support from the community, PAWS:

• offers a reduced-fee, public spay/neuter program for cats and dogs in cooperation with local veterinarians;
• operates a free spay/neuter clinic for homeless cats to humanely reduce the number of unowned, free-roaming cats in our region;
• cares for and find homes for over 1,000 abandoned and abused animals each year;
• provides emergency veterinary care for injured or sick homeless animals;
• designs and presents programs that teach humane education to children;
• promotes responsible pet ownership through participation in community events;
• collaborates with other rescues and local shelters to provide foster care or spay/neuter services to animals in need;
• participates in the Central Pennsylvania Animal Alliance to help make our region a no-kill community.
