From Humble Beginnings...
Scruffy Paws Animal Rescue was established in 2017 to help stray cats from Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) programs who were found to be tame or tamable by providing them with a safe place to stay until they could be adopted into loving homes. Our philosophy is every cat and kitten deserves a chance to be safe, healthy, and loved.
From our humble beginnings as a foster-only program, Scruffy Paws has grown into a rescue, shelter, and medical facility that provides cats and kittens saved from the streets with complete veterinary exams, spay or neuter surgeries, vaccinations, parasite treatments, microchips, ear tips, and more.
... to a Network of Partnerships!
Our statewide network of partnerships includes animal control centers, municipal and private shelters, trappers, veterinarians and volunteers. Together, we work to make sure cats and kittens from the streets find safety, shelter, and love. We also help coordinate large-scale rescue efforts when stray cats cluster in a local community or in cases of hoarding.
The cats and kittens we rescue are frequently in need of medical treatment and services that extend far beyond the standard care given to all Scruffy Paws’ intakes. We take on these challenges with full hearts and do not triage treatment based on cost. From bottle-feeding kittens who require around-the-clock care to treating extensive injuries and serious illnesses, Scruffy Paws provides the very best for those most in need.
To help the Scruffy Paws team continue its lifesaving mission, please consider donating, adopting, fostering, or volunteering.
