News

Hope you were able to see LPAAR featured recently on our local NBC and CBS news affiliates, WALB and WCTV. They gave needed exposure to our adoptable pets and informed viewers of how local animal limit laws make finding approved foster homes very difficult. The local authorities are looking into how they might create a more reasonable ordinance that addresses the real issues of animal welfare and nuisances. The last two years as a PetSmart partner have been great. We have found homes for many pets, including 15 kittens. We look forward to 2008 as another productive year. www.petsmart.com We have participated in all of PetSmart's Special Events, having most recently taken 91 photos of pets with Santa Claws. We are looking forward to PetSmart's Spring Adoption Event May 2-4. We will resume trapping soon for our TNR program for feral cats. We need donations to help fund this project. The new low-cost spay/neuter clinic in nearby Jennings, FL, has agreed to help. www.northfloridapaws.org

Our Pet List

Our outreach program through which we have helped financially needy families by supplying food, vet care, and spay/neuter for their pets is currently serving 6 families on an ongoing basis. We distribute educational materials on the need for spay/neuter, the inhumanity of tethering dogs, dog and cat training, animal abuse and horrors of dog-fighting,etc. We appreciate all our supporters who have helped us collect and recycle printer and laser toner cartridges and old cell phones and for those who shop online through www.igive.com.

Volunteers, Foster homes and contributions needed!! We need help maintaining our feral colonies. For information:Selina W. Dunworth

Who We Are

Founded in 1999, we are a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation supported entirely by contributions and staffed by a small number of volunteers with BIG hearts. We have a Georgia Dept. of Agriculture Shelter License. We are dedicated to rescuing homeless cats and dogs and educating the public to be responsible pet owners with emphasis on spay/neuter of all companion animals. If you live in the area, we need foster homes desperately. Because we are a "no-kill" rescue, we are unable to rescue additional animals until we find homes for the ones we already have, as we lack qualified foster homes. We are always in need of funds to support the animals already in residence, in order to keep them current on all vaccinations and heartworm and flea preventative. If you can help, please send your contribution to the address below. If you shop online, please consider ordering through www.igive.com, as we get a percentage of the sales from customers listing us as their charity. Thank you!

****************************************************

All adoptions require veterinarian references and home check before approval! Cats are inside only and dogs must have a fenced yard for safety and to comply with local leash laws. We encourage alternatives to declawing because mutilation by amputation is such a drastic and inhumane step.

Adopting a friend

Adoption is a LIFETIME committment.
Fees: Cats $65.00 Dogs: $75.00
Fee helps offset cost of: feline leukemia or canine heartworm screening, first vaccinations, deworming, and sterilization. Even with our vet's generous discount our cost for initial vet care is twice our adoption fee.
