CRISIS SUPPORT FOR PEOPLE AND PETS
HELPING FAMILIES HEAL TOGETHER
WE BELIEVE PETS ARE FAMILY, AND NOBODY SHOULD HAVE TO CHOOSE BETWEEN SEEKING HELP AND KEEPING THE COMPANIONS THEY LOVE.
How We Help
PAWS-n-PURRsist helps protect the human-animal bond by providing temporary care and resources when a crisis makes it difficult for someone to safely care for their pet. Our services create a bridge to stability and, whenever possible, reunification.
Temporary Foster & Boarding
We coordinate temporary foster homes and short-term boarding options to provide pets with safe care while their people navigate a crisis.
Veterinary Care & Essentials
When resources are available, we help with vaccinations, veterinary needs, food, supplies, and other essentials that can remove barriers to temporary placement or reunification.
Resources & Reunification
We work with community partners to connect people and pets with needed resources while supporting the ultimate goal of safely bringing families back together.
Real Pets. Real People. Real Reunifications.
