Our Mission:

To rescue, rehabilitate and re-home any animal in need in our operational area.

Although we mostly seem to focus on cats and kittens we do help the whole gambit of animals as needs arise including: kittens, cats, puppies, dogs, and all small domestic critters (lizards, birds, guinea pigs, rabbits, hedgehogs, hamsters, bearded dragons, turtles, fish)

We are always here to help. People often contact us for help with:

• Practical advice for pet owners

• Vet referrals

• Immediate help for all animals and families in need

• Crisis support. i.e. traps, emergency food and other supplies

• Feral Cat Trap Neuter Release

• Rehabilitation

• Referrals to other rescue organizations and support networks

• Supporting local bylaw enforcement by acting as a drop off and connection point during emergencies (ie people whose pets have gone missing, and pets who are found and need to be reconnected with owners)

• Continuous monitoring and support of local social media posts on lost and found or to be surrendered pets

• Supporting families to get control of cat breeding through spay/neuter and finding homes for kittens and cats.

​

We believe that every animal is worthy of a stable environment, food, water, affection and humane care.

​

What We Do:

At Paws N Claws Freedom Rescue Society we house animals until adoption, either at the home based rescue or with fosters. Our adoption process aims at matching the right humans with their purr-fect pet.  Animals available for adoption can be found on the adoption page. If you see someone you wish to adopt please download and fill out the form and send it in to us.

​

Our Partners:

We are lucky to partner with two amazing local pet stores: Bosley's Oliver and Lucky's Pet Supply in Penticton. Covid-19 has affected their ability to welcome customers and to house animals in their stores but we are happy to announce that both pet stores are now able to house kitties again so look for some of our sweethearts there!  We are grateful for their support.

At this time the rescue is involved in a large 100+ cat rescue and we are in need of funds, food, litter, cat crates, litter pans, towels, small blankets, cat beds and small scratch posts ( toys and entertainment are great too:) 

​

Shadow mom and Spazz her son are a very bonded pair that will not be happy without each other . Mom is about 1-1/2 years old and her son is 5 months. They are both happy playful cats that will bring much joy to your home.

This is Patches. Patches has had a very hard life, she was living outside for years and was pregnant so many times. A lovely human saw her and started to care for her out there. She began to build a relationship with her and earn her trust. This took a very long time. Finally we managed to catch her and the babies she had at the time and she was also pregnant already. Since then both litters have grown and been adopted or are in foster. She is now spayed and hoping for her own home. She will need a home that is quiet and will give her time to adjust and slowly build a relationship. She is a good hunter as well so if you have mice in the house she will help with that:) Are you the family willing to give her a chance at a happy life??    

Fill out an application form today and bring this sweetheart home to love!
