Animal Protection and Welfare Society - APAWS

Please email info@apawspets.org with any rescue or adoption inquiries. APAWS is a no-kill animal rescue.

APAWS is dedicated to helping animals in need in the Baton Rouge, LA area. Two things hinder our ability to help all animals we are requested to rescue: foster homes and money. We are a no-kill rescue and will not euthanize unless there is no medical treatment available.

We believe every animal deserves a chance. We don't euthanize based on how much the treatment will cost or how adoptable the animal is!

If you have a question or concern about our foster pets or an animal in need, please email us directly at info@apawspets.org. Our Facebook page is maintained by social media volunteers, and the fastest way to reach a board member and receive an official answer concerning an animal is via email.

Please feel free to share your adoption stories, photos, any questions about events and fundraisers, and your experience with APAWS on this page. We would love to hear from you!
