Paws n Claws is an organisation dedicated to the rescue, short term foster and permanent re-homing of all types of animals.

Unwanted animals are found new homes through the careful matching of animals to the appropriate family. Owners new and old are provided with support and guidance if required.

The rescue is run by a dedicated group of volunteers, with a love of animals, who give their time and devotion to each needy animal. Urgent cases that come into our care are fostered until they are well enough to go to a new permanent home.

The animals in our care are brought to us for various reasons. Not only are there cruelty cases which we have all heard about in the press, but there are also less obvious cases such as relationship breakdowns, changing work commitments, moving to unsuitable accommodation, illness or death in the family or allergies.

Sadly, we also find dogs that are simply unwanted due to their age! All dogs are accessed by an experienced volunteer before they are placed with their new owner.

If you think you could offer one of our orphans a second chance, or if you think you could foster or make a donation please contact one of our volunteers on the contact page.
