The Mission of Centre County PAWS is to Promote Animal Welfare and Safety with compassion through adoption, sheltering, education, and community assistance. We are now accepting applications for assistance through the Dr. John Thomas Veterinary Emergency Treatment (VET) Fund! Volunteers are the heart and soul of Centre County PAWS. We invite you to complete an online application and join the ranks of devoted volunteers committed to helping homeless and needy dogs and cats. PAWS is able to help hundreds of cats and dogs find new homes each year because of the generosity of its foster families.

PAWS History
Report
For the first 15 years, these volunteer founders worked out of their homes to rehome cats and kittens. PAWS developed relationships with many vet practices to provide free or low-cost medical care for the cats. Fred and Lee Metzger of Metzger Animal Hospital generously provided a 850 square foot building next to his practice for housing small numbers of cats and for showing adoptable fosters on weekends.
