|SILVER PAWS PROGRAM
Silver Paws Pet Program
This an innovative program designed to provide senior pets with the care and attention they deserve.
Our mission is to ensure that senior pets are given the opportunity to live out their golden years in comfort and security.
Our main goal is to place senior pets in loving homes so they do not spend their last years in a shelter environment. Many of our senior pets are sponsored and their adoption fees have been paid.
We also strive to keep pets in their homes and provide assistance to seniors who may need help with food, vaccinations, and medications for their pets. For more information contact us.
Benefits of Adopting a Senior Pet
- Research tells us that companion animals, such as cats and dogs, can help improve our physical and mental health. By adopting and spending time with a shelter pet, you can experience the benefits of lowered stress levels and blood pressure.
- Cats and dogs provide friendship for lonely individuals and open opportunities for interacting with others which an older person may miss, particularly if one’s family is far away.
- The company of a beloved pet has been proven to reduce depression.
- The quiet and doting home of a senior citizen is the perfect match for an older animal looking for a new home.
- Senior animals offer gentler, calmer companionship and often are already trained.
