PAWs Project 

A Program of Lost Pet Services, Inc.

Financial Assistance for Serious Illness, Injuries & Critical Veterinary Care

All requests require an application and are reviewed individually.   Proof of financial need is required, and assistance is subject to available funding.

​

Pets receiving assistance must be spayed or neutered, or their owners must agree to have the procedure performed.   Exceptions may be made when a veterinarian determines the procedure is medically unsafe. 

​

We do not reimburse veterinary expenses for treatments already provided.

​

​

​

We depend on the generosity of those who support us.

​

Donations make it possible for us to do this life-saving work.   

We are 100% volunteer-run with no paid staff, and all donations are tax-deductible.
