Portland Animal Welfare Team

The PAW Team does phenomenal work for our city. If Google allowed 10 stars, I would give them a 10. This organization is an absolute lifeline, providing vital resources, veterinary assistance, and food to families and individuals experiencing homelessness or extreme hardship who love their pets dearly but need a helping hand. On a personal level, they stepped in when my dad and I were in a desperate situation. Making the painful choice to surrender cats I raised for their own health and happiness was incredibly emotional. But after sitting down with Megan, their Client & Community Resource Coordinator, a massive weight was lifted off our shoulders. She took the wheel and connected us directly with their partners at PDX Cat Trappers. Even though it still hurts, I 100% back and support the PDX Cat Trappers. I worked mainly with a gentleman named Robert, who handled everything with an extremely kind heart that you just don't see much anymore. 👏🏻🫶🏻🙌🏻🙏🏻🪽🐕🐈🐾💛 BRAVO to the PAW Team, Megan, Robert, and the entire network of partner nonprofits working tirelessly behind the scenes. You are literal angels for our community's furry family members. Thank you for doing everything in your power—and then some—to support pet parents and their animals when they need it the most.

I stopped by today to donate a bunch of items and the people were incredible. They were very busy with a line of people who were picking up supplies but they still made time to help me carry in the donations and tell me how grateful they were for all of it. It made the painful process of giving up things from my dog who just passed away much easier knowing it was helping others and seeing how much it was appreciated.

The best place for your animals needs, I suggest and would choose this place over anywhere in Oregon. Thank you thank you for everything you all do.

I haven't received services here but I've donated multiple times. They make that process so flippin easy. Returned phone calls and everything. Love the staff!
