HELP US HELP THE NEEDY PETS!

Crossed Paws Animal Shelter is dedicated to improving the welfare of all animals, in part by reducing the over-breeding of domestic animals through public education and sterilization programs. We also strive to educate the public on proper animal care, removing animals from inhumane environments and placing unwanted animals in loving adoptive homes.

...speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves.



We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization; serving the animals and people of Monroe County. All positions are volunteer. We receive no monetary support from state, federal or local entities. All the money that we obtain is through holding fundraisers, community support, memberships fees, and grants which goes directly back into the shelter to pay for food, high medical expenses for the animals, shelter up-keep and utilities. Donations made to national animal welfare groups do not benefit our local pets. Our work is made possible by the generosity of our community and people who care.

We are committed to the general welfare, sheltering and placement of animals, prevention of cruelty to animals, animal overpopulation, and education concerning humane treatment of all living creatures.
