West Warwick Angels

The West Warwick Animal Shelter is who we are. Animals in need of new homes are housed and adopted out by us.

Thanks for visiting the Cranston Animal Shelter! We just have our adoption application at the shelter. Adoptions from other states are permitted. At the time of adoption, we can only currently take money orders made payable to the Cranston Animal Shelter.

A 501 (c) 3 non-profit group called Friends of the Warwick Animal Shelter provides assistance to the animals kept there. Since we are volunteers, all money raised through fundraisers and contributions is used to rescue animals.

Scruffy Paws Animal Rescue was founded in 2017 to provide stray cats with a secure place to remain until they could be adopted into loving homes rather than being released back to the hardships of outdoor life after being accepted into Trap- Neuter- Release (TNR) programs and found to be tame or tamable.

In order to meet an unmet need among Rhode Island's companion animal population, PAAWS RI was established in December 2011. We are a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that does not receive financing from the federal, state, or city.

As a nonprofit shelter, we are dedicated to saving, providing for, and placing companion animals in loving homes. We shall continue to work towards creating humane communities and support the important morals of kindness, respect, and responsibility for animals.
