Pet of the Month
Mr. Mayor is a beautiful black boy who believes that humans were put on the planet to love him! OK, he thinks they should feed him as well, but mainly, they should love him! Mr. Mayor will follow you around, sit in your lap all the time, and generally be the cuddly dream pet anybody would want to have as part of their family. Unfortunately, he comes from an eviction situation in a large town whose shelter is always full. He is with a foster mom now, but his future is uncertain. Please save Mr. Mayor! He is full of love and needs a new home where he will be cared for the way he deserves. Please call Susan at 401-739-4117.

PawsWatch
PawsWatch Rhode Island's volunteer network for the spay/neuter and vaccination of feral cats. PawsWatch works with citizens statewide to assist them in getting their backyard residents the necessary vet care for safe and healthy lives. When we find tame strays among these cats, or kittens which are young enough to become tame, we sometimes help their caretakers locate homes.
If you need assistance in trying to help feral cats, please contact us at
cats@pawswatch.org

Who We Are
PawsWatch was started in '97 and was incorporated in '99.
The group first started in the Newport / Aquidneck Island region.
Throughout the United States, cats which are not 100% tame account for the majority of cats who are "put to sleep" in shelters. Stopping the flood of reproduction among these cats can help to reverse this trend as well as helping to relieve some of the crowding so that
shelters have more time and space to resettle other deserving animals.
PawsWatch volunteers help neighbors create healthy, comfortable, non-reproducing habitats for feral cats. Most importantly, we help people get their cat in for affordable spay/neuter, in order to break the cycle of overpopulation and homelessness.
Those cats which are not adoptable are given inoculations and any needed medical care,and are spayed or neutered. They remain at the locations where they feel at home but now as a stable "colony:" healthy, non-reproducing, sheltered, and fed daily.
What You Can Do
FUNDING
Help us help homeless cats. Money raised by PawsWatch goes DIRECTLY to the needs of the cats, spaying-neutering-vaccinating, or building shelters. We are an all-volunteer, non-profit organization with no paid employees and no overhead. Many vets make our work possible by eliminating profits and donating time, but there are still significant expenses involved. We need your help and are very grateful for the generous supporters who make our work possible.
PARTICIPATE!
NOTE: Please join us in our efforts to give homeless cats a brighter future.
