The people at Paws were amazing and very professional with not only the my feelings and my needs for a pet but also with the needs of their pets up for adoption. Because of them and the wonderful foster parents my husband and I got our Precious Harliquinn Again thank you PAWS for all you do. Carla Marie Reighn

I can't speak about the clinic but the adoption process for getting my kitten was thorough and felt that they cared about the animal. Friendly staff who answered my questions promptly.

A little pricey but very professional. We were seen at our appointment time, the vet spoke to us personally and made recommendations, and the tech was awesome. Glad we took our babies here to be seen. We'll be back!

Adopted this beautiful girl, Zelda, in January and she was so shy, but after just about a week of being with me, she's opening up and playing and socializing. The staff at PAWS were so sweet, kind and informative when I came in for a meet-and-greet, then to adopt. With all the information they provided me with, including insurance and vet recommendations, I was prepared for her arrival and adjustment to her new home. I've already fallen in love with Zelda

Nicely orginazed. Fun color paint and eveythin was well out together. Made the best use of space in this slightly smaller pet shop, but it's city space for ya! Staff was nice and anwsered all my questions with a genuine smile. Almost walked out with an application for the puppy in the window (as cliche as that sounds) but due to application time, which is understandable and the fact I was visiting town for only another few hours I did not apply. Will visit again next time I'm in town.

My friend tries to adopt but PAWS refuses to let her. She was bitten by a cat years ago and got cellulites from the bite. They operated on her hand to get to the infection which was spreading fast. She took that cat to get a checkup after she was out if the hospital and they took this poor cat away from her. She did not surrender it. They have a one track mind and will not listen to reason she was very sick over them taking the cat away not they will not allow her to adopt. This is no way to treat a person who loves animals. Whoever made that decision should look at the truth no way would she give up an animal.

I had my cat Calico Jane, spayed yesterday. The people at Paws were so very helpful and it was nice to know an adorable service is available to help spay and neuter our furry friends. When I found Jane she was dirty, pregnant and flea bitten. Now her and one of her kittens are a part of my family and the other kittens are in good homes.

I have been volunteering at PAWS (Old City) for a few months and it has been a great experience. The staff and other volunteers are really kind, sweet and helpful. They also promptly notified me when there were appointment cancellations. Great organization and great people! I wish them the best in all their efforts and hope to continue to volunteer here in the future.

Save an animals life? Adopt a pet! Shots and home prep comes with the Donation. Disabled and Unwanted pets are excellent pets as well.

I love to play with the kittens/cats at PAWS! It's the best way to spend some free time and happy kitties are more likely to be adopted! This location also accepts donations of pet supplies and $$

They are set up nicely to spend a little time petting the resident cats. My children enjoyed that.

Put an app.in.never got a call. Went back 6 mths.later never got a call. It seems to me that the girl at the desk screens all. Take my advice go elsewhere. There are a lot of other places you can go to adopt a nice dog or cat.

Opens at noon, very unusual for a store. Very nice place to find a cat to adopt. We recently had a very nice experience adopting a cat. They also sell as small variety of accessories as another way to offset the cost of running the shelter.

I adopted my first cat from here. While she's no longer with us, I am so grateful for the time I had with her and for PAWs for bringing us together.
