Country Paws Rescue, Inc.

Hempstead, Texas

Cause Description:
Country Paws Rescue began in 1999 and is located in Hempstead, Texas. We rescue abandoned, dumped, abused, neglected, handicapped, sick and otherwise unwanted animals. The need in our area is great as there are no city or county facilities for animals and nothing planned in the near future. Animals are dumped and abandoned at an exceedingly high rate and have nowhere to go other than to be hit by cars, shot, starved, or some other unfortunate and painful death. Country Paws Rescue, Inc. is a no-kill, non-profit shelter and a registered 501 ( c ) (3) corporation. We currently house and care for more than 300 unwanted animals. The out-of-pocket costs to us for feeding, vetting and housing is enormous. Our only means of caring for the animals is through private donations - the generosity, kindness and support of individuals for donations and assistance in operating our shelter. We currently feed more than 200 pounds of dry dog food daily. This does not include puppy, cat or kitten food or food for special needs animals. Rescued animals live at our shelter until loving, caring, “forever” homes are found. We carefully screen applicants and match people with pets so that a strong, loving bond is made. We do everything possible to make sure that the animals are placed in homes where they will live out their natural lives with love, happiness, respect and security.
