Known for taking on the most vulnerable cases, PAWS heals and rehabilitates more than 5,000 sick, injured, and homeless pets annually and connects them with loving families through its adoption program. PAWS Chicago also operates the city’s only high-volume spay/neuter clinic, providing more than 21,000 low- or no-cost spay/neuter surgeries last year alone, addressing pet overpopulation at its source and expanding access to care in under-resourced communities.
