Chun May Be a Little Ahead in His Gear, but the Spirit is There. He's just checking in to wish everyone a beautiful, safe and happy Thanksgiving holiday. He also wishes to help us express our gratitude for everything that you do throughout the year. From our wonderful volunteers who cuddle and play with our kitties or walk our doggies, to our social media supporters who like and share and help our animals find their way home, to our donors and supporters who help us maintain all of our critical functions, to our wonderful adopters. We and the dogs and cats of PAWS really couldn't be more grateful! What you do throughout the year helps us to continue to help local dogs and cats in need and helps them find their way home. Happy Thanksgiving! #HolidaySpirit #HappyThanksgiving #CutieChun #CatsofPawsCT #DogsofPawsCt #PawsomeVolunteers #PawsomeStaff #PawsomeDonors #PawsomeSupporters #PawsomeAdopters #Shelterpets #SupportLocalAnimals #ThankYou #Grateful

Perfect Accompaniment to a Loving Family- Meet Squash! Squash is a 4-5 year old papillon mix who came to PAWS after being picked up as a stray by a local animal control. Unfortunately, the finder tied him outside their house for a couple days before calling for help. This guy was understandably quite fearful by the time he arrived at animal control. However, over time, he did begin to realize that he actually had friends. Squash can be slightly uncertain at first, but in no time he will be in your lap, soliciting attention, affection and petting. He will still do best in an experienced adult home willing to take it slow and give him time to decompress. Squash does like other small pups and might do well with another pup to offer friendship and help him get adjusted. Squash will make someone a great companion pup. He's ready to be a partner for a local shopping trip, a neighborhood walk or a little cuddle and read a book time. Please like and share to help Squash find the loving family he is looking for! To adopt, visit www.pawsct.org or stop by the shelter daily 12-4. #PerfectAccompaniment #LovingFamily #Squash #PapillonMix #DogsofPawsCT #cuddlebuddy #walkingpartner #companiondog #foreverhome

Ready to Set Down Roots with a Forever Family! Meet Chauncey! He's a 4 year old Jack Russell Terrier mix that has goodwill and positive energy to spare. Chauncey is social, loves attention and likes meeting new friends. He adores his tennis balls and never passed on a good game of fetch. Chauncey knows some basic commands, walks well on leash and is eager to please. Chauncey will make a great active time partner. He would enjoy a long weekend hike, a game of fetch in the yard or a weekend adventure. Chauncey has some skin issues that need to improve before he is neutered. He is looking for a foster to adopt home while he awaits his surgery.

Handsome to the Max! This good looking boy is a 2 year old Mountain Dog mix who is ready to find a family to call his own. Max is a sensitive boy who can be timid with new people. When he warms he is sweet, playful and energetic. Max came to PAWS from a local animal control, but originally hails from the state of Texas. He has been through a lot and would do well with an experienced adult family willing to give him time to decompress. Max is smart and eager to learn. He would benefit from an active family willing to work on his manners and training. Max has lots of energy and would be a great partner for a good run on the beach, a long evening walk or weekend outings. Max also enjoys a good hug, a little one on one time and being close to his people. He would probably be a great partner for another active pup who could help show him the ropes. Please like and share Max to help him find the family he is looking for.
