CATS OF THE MONTH...

HAUMEA!



Haumea is this little beauty’s name,
And let us tell ya, sweetness is her game!!!
And as you can see, black is her shade,
Yep, when it comes to looks, A+ is her grade!
Sometimes she acts just a wee bit shy,
But on her friendship you can always rely!!!
And as we mentioned, she is just as sweet as can be,
And all she just wants is to be your little adoptee!

ROSA!



Imagine one day sleeping soundly on a bed,
But then the next, being tossed out on your head.
Well that’s what happened to this sweetie-pie,
When her people up and moved and left her high and dry!
She spent three years roaming the streets,
Looking day after day for a place to rest her feets.
She never gave up hope, certain someday she’d be taken in,
Given a new bed to rest on, and better yet, scratches on her chin!!
Well, she finally struck gold and hooked up with Angel P.A.W.S.
And finding her a forever home is what we hope to cause!
With a purrsonality of gold and a coat of mostly black,
Whomever adopts this lover, gets one awesome cat…
Yep, she’ll fill your house with tons and tons and tons of love,
‘Cause love is what black cats are entirely made of!!!!!

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES....

Fostering....

You provide the love, we provide the rest! We are always in need of loving animal people who are willing to foster a cat/kitten or a dog/puppy (we presently have over 35 kittens - some with moms, some without - in need of foster homes). This is a very rewarding experience and if you think you are able to provide a foster home to one of our cats, dogs, or litter of kittens, please contact us immediately. We will provide the food, litter, crate, etc.... For more information about fostering please visit our website at: http://www.angelpaws/fostering.htm


OTHER WAYS TO HELP...

SPONSORING

Would you love to adopt a pet, but are unable to at this time? Are you stuck for a gift idea for the animal lover in your life? If your answer is yes to either of these questions, please consider purchasing a “Homeless Pet Sponsorship” for an animal loving friend, family member, co-worker, neighbor – or – even for yourself. It’s simple…to select an animal, all you have to do is visit our Pet Adoption Center (located at 490 Inman Ave in Colonia), come to one of our adoption days (held the 2ND and 4TH Saturday of every month at Petco in Edison from 11:A.M. –2:P.M.), or check out our pet list at http://www.angelpaws.org/homepage.htm. The tax-deductible donation is $5 per month (per pet), with a two-month minimum, or $50 for the year (also per pet). The person for whom you purchase the sponsorship will receive a “Homeless Pet Sponsorship Certificate;” each certificate comes with colored picture(s) of the pet(s) chosen for sponsorship, along with a narrative - or sometimes a poem - which tells everything we know about the selected pet(s). The second paragraph informs the recipient that a sponsorship for a homeless animal has been purchased in their name and that the funds used to pay for the sponsorship are being used for the costs associated with caring and sheltering the homeless animals in the guardianship of Angel P.A.W.S. Once you’ve selected a pet(s), all you have to do is send us a note letting us know the name of the pet(s) you've chosen and the name and address of the person the certificate is to be issued to, along with a check to:

Angel P.A.W.S. (c/o Fran O. )
P.O. Box 282
Colonia, NJ 07067

If you have any questions about this awesome program, please call Fran at 732-340-1199. She'll be happy to tell you all about it!

GENERAL DONATIONS

We accept any and all donations, whether monetary, in the form of supplies, or time spent volunteering. For your convenience, we now accept donations on line. To do so, please click on the logo below.


A LITTLE BIT ABOUT US...

We are a 501(c)(3), non-profit, all volunteer organization dedicated to relieving the suffering of - and finding permanent homes for - stray, abandoned and homeless animals. We were founded in July, 1999 by 2 experienced rescuers who felt there was a need to bring a new, progressive style of animal care to the community. In addition, we are NJ State Certified Animal Control.


A FEW IMPORTANT "WE'S"...

We are all volunteers - all donations go directly to supporting the animals.
We run strictly by private donation, we receive no municipal funding and, therefore, must solicit donations and hold fundraising events.
We are a "limited access" haven. No animals are euthanized to make room for more. All healthy, adoptable animals remain with us until they find permanent homes.
We provide complete medical care. All cats are tested for feline leukemia and AIDS, all dogs for heartworm. All animals are up to date on vaccinations and those over 6 months are altered.
We participate in the NJ Animal Population Control Program to make low cost spay/neuter services available to our adopters. Please click on the following link for more information on this
program:
