PAWS Animal Shelter, a Division of NW Oregon Animal Alliance, takes in homeless, unwanted or abandoned animals. We specialize in Orphaned (newborn) Animals ~big or small~ as well as providing Tender Loving Care for homeless, unwanted, or abandoned animals. Education is important to us. Pet ownership is a responsibility, not to be taken lightly. With any responsibility comes challenges along with joy. We work with people to get through the difficulties in order to keep their pets....and are firm believers that doing the right thing is not usually the easy way out...But it is the right way to live.
1. Apply. We appreciate you wanting to bring a Animal into your home. In order for us to find the right pet for you, we need you to submit an adoption application. 2. Review. We will review your application upon receipt. If we have any questions or concerns, we will contact you for clarity. 3. Home Visit. Once your application review is complete, a PAWS Animal Shelter volunteer will contact you to schedule a home visit to meet in person and discuss all-things pet. During the home visit, we look for potential hazards for the Animal that the adopter may not have considered. All household members must be present during the home visit. This includes all pets. 4. Finding Your Pet. Once approved to adopt, the search for your Animal begins. Volunteers will begin to evaluate pets currently in our foster care program who may be a good fit for you and your family. We would also be open to discussing Animals in our care that you are specifically interested in.
