WAIF Freeland Cat Adoption

The mission of WAIF is to save companion animals, give them loving care, fight for their wellbeing, and successfully advance the relationship between people and animals.

In order to carry out our purpose, we inform the public about the value of spaying and neutering, provide referrals to reasonably priced clinics nearby, and encourage owners of returned animals to microchip their animals by highlighting the benefits of doing so. By providing aid with pet food and/or supplies from our designated food bank supply, we assist people in keeping their pets rather than being forced to surrender them. Animals are not given a time limit at our shelter. They are welcome to stay here for as long as they need to, even though we work hard to find them permanent homes as soon as possible. According to CASA, every animal is significant and merits the extra effort.

In order to be ready to take over from the County, concerned Jefferson County residents formed the Humane Society of Jefferson County (HSJCWA) in 2008. We took over running the shelter in 2012 from the county and the sheriff's office.

Whether home is the living room or the jungle, PAWS is about people assisting cats, dogs, and wild animals to go there and thrive. Our methods for achieving this include caring for and adopting out homeless cats and dogs, rehabilitating orphaned and injured wildlife, and educating the public to encourage humane behavior toward animals.

EAS is an open-admission facility dedicated to giving lost, abandoned, abused, and neglected pets in our neighborhood care and consolation. Through adoption, lost-pet reunions, and community resources, EAS brings together and supports people's pets and their owners.
