Description Program Srvc AccomRescue of homeless cats and dogs, addressing their medical and psycological needs and finding them new homes to qualified adopters through our adoption process. Our adoption process consist of processing the adopters submitted online application for an animal or prequalifying which may consist of vet checks, landlord checks, home checks, and personal interviews. Once approved the animal is adopted and an adoption contract is signed. Home checks may be done virtually. We educate clients and the public on cat and dog care and handling as well as the benefit of adopting a senior rescued pet. Our full life cycle process consists of an intake process where we address the pets medical needs, facilitate required health care, behavioral, and grooming needs. We then change their status in our database system to available where they are seen by the public via internet. They are also seen by the public via adoption events, personal visits to the adopters home or the adopters may visit foster home where the animal is staying. We commit to these animals for life. If the animal does not get adopted they stay in our as a permanent foster pet. In 2024 our medical expenses alone was over 58 thousand dollars. At the beginning of 2024 we had 58 animals in foster homes. we had a total of 235 new intakes into our organization and we had 239 adoptions. 15 senior pets died or were euthanized for health reasons. Paws for Seniors only has one Program Service which consists of rescuing unfortunate animals that for many reasons lose the only home they ever knew. Most of the pets are senior cats and dogs and 80% of our human clients are senior citizens. Paws for Seniors rely solely on donations from the public to support our mission. We also charge an adoption fee which rarely covers the cost that goes into each of the animals. By the good grace of our followers and the community we are able to sustain our organization and continue to give each animal a high quality of medical care and a high quality diet. As stated previously we only have one program and all our expenses are directly or indirectly associated with our rescue mission. The Program Service Expenses below does not include Insurance, Depreciation, Asset state tax, or Salary expenses although they are all associated with our animal rescue program.DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt
