THE CAPITAL AREA ANIMAL WELFARE SOCIETY The Capital Area Animal Welfare Society is a non-profit organization committed to the well-being of animals in the Baton Rouge community by adopting homeless animals, teaching the community responsible pet ownership and the humane treatment of animals, and promoting the practice of spay/neuter at all times. Our ultimate goal is to have Baton Rouge be a model in the South where all adoptable animals find loving homes.
Start 2008 out on the right paw, become a foster family! CAAWS is limited by how many dogs and cats we can take in from the streets/public or the local shelters. The more foster families we have joining our program, the more animals we can take in. Unfortunately, that list is way too short and we have to turn away far more sad animals than we would like. Our building facilities can house only a few cats and dogs and our foster families are swamped with foster dogs and cats/kittens and until those get adopted, we have to turn others away.
Foster If you would like to foster JUST ONE,
either a dog/puppy or cat/kitten until they get adopted, CAAWS provides a
healthy, spayed/neutered animal and pays for all medical expenses as well as
all medications that may be needed. You provide a temporary, safe, & loving
home until they are adopted and, if possible, bring the animal to adoption
day several times a month. If you are able to help, please call or
email CAAWS at 752-5801 or
caawsmail@yahoo.com. The animals
are counting on you! Please consider becoming a foster parent.
Volunteer If you are interested in volunteering, CAAWS has many opportunities
from which to chose. Check out our current
list of volunteer opportunities. Maybe we have the perfect one for you!
If you can't volunteer, perhaps you would consider being
a "Best Buddy" to an animal in Foster
Care. Chose a cat or dog and contribute to its upkeep. We will keep you
informed of his/her status. Check out the options
here.
