PAWS Atlanta

365 Days of Rescue

Because rescue never takes a day off.

Each year, hundreds of animals find their way to PAWS Atlanta. Some are surrendered by owners who can no longer care for them, some are left behind in the parking lot, and others are rescued from other nearby shelters. No matter how an animal arrives at PAWS Atlanta, we are committed to giving them the love and care they need, 365 days a year.

Our animals need food, enrichment, and medical care daily. Rescue doesn’t pause, not for weekends, holidays, or hard days. From kittens who require bottle feeding to overwhelmed dogs who need extra training, our animals need love and care every day. And that only happens because of YOU. Because rescue never takes a day off, neither can we. Your gift keeps PAWS Atlanta rescuing, healing, and rehoming animals every day of the year. 

Our Pet Food Bank provided food for hundreds of families, especially over the last few months as people across the country lost access to SNAP benefits. Our Behavior Workshops gave dog owners the tools to give their pups the best life possible. Your generosity supported renovations in our D2 section for small and medium dogs, our vet clinic, and our Cat Cottage.  You showed your ongoing support for our animals, and, because of that, 646 cats and dogs have found loving homes so far this year.

This GAgives on #GivingTuesday, will you show that you're here for our animals?

We want to end 2025 with all the resources necessary to continue finding the perfect home for each animal. With every financial donation, you provide a second chance for an animal who so desperately needs one. 

Thank you for joining us in our mission this Georgia Gives on Giving Tuesday and being a caregiver for cats and dogs who need support 365 days a year. Thanks to your generosity, each homeless pet can receive the care they need, every season, every day.
