Thousands more cats just like Phyllis need our help & time is running out.
Make your gift before midnight to triple your impact & ensure that Philadelphia’s outdoor cats are cared for, protected & given the chance they deserve.
Phyllis, who they worked for months to trap, is 1 of 100+ cats Kathy has TNR’d or rescued from this colony — providing supplies, transportation & support so new litters are rare.
It’s a simple idea with profound impact: fewer litters & hardships & healthier, more stable outdoor cat communities ❤️🩹
That’s on top of preventing future litters from being born to cats already struggling — like Phyllis (above), TNR’d at PAWS earlier this month.
On the block Phyllis was living, Kathy has spent nearly 20 years supporting an elderly caretaker doing her best to look after local cats on a fixed income.
Now, she helps hundreds of cats each year, supported by a network of foster homes & TNR partners like PAWS.
Kathy shares that PAWS’ subsidized TNR Voucher Program has been vital in freeing up precious funds to assist cats with urgent medical needs.
These extraordinary community members spend countless hours carrying out TNR work & managing outdoor cat colonies.
Kathy is one of them.
As founder & director of Green Street Animal Rescue & Le Cat Cafe, her journey began 20+ years ago with 1 cat — & quickly grew into a lifelong commitment.
Final hours to have your gift TRIPLED for PAWS’ TNR program!
Thru midnight, every dollar donated will provide 3X as many subsidized spay/neuters & vaccinations at PAWS’ clinics.
We service 2,500+ outdoor cats yearly w/ dozens of partner orgs & hundreds of Community Cat Caretakers across Philly 🧵
She’s so grateful for affection & will reward everyone who comes to see her with soft little purrs.
Want to help this kind 11-year-old start her golden years off right?
💌 Email foster@phillypaws.org to learn more about fostering Shadowfall!
No wonder she doesn’t want to leave her hidey hut!
Despite being very nervous & uncomfortable, Shadow has been gentle & loving from the moment she arrived ❤️🩹
This sweet granny could really use a foster home!
Shadowfall is feeling really crummy & it’s no surprise.
She’s fighting a cold, suffering from a mouth full of very painful teeth & is also recovering from spay surgery after due to a life-threatening uterine infection 🧵
TNR for 1 cat through PAWS costs $50.
Today, your gift of that amount or more will benefit THREE community cats!
Give now via Facebook, Venmo (username @phillypaws), or online → phillypaws.org/tripleTNR

💉 Cats are vaccinated for rabies and other communicable diseases.
❤️🩹 Without the stresses of mating & pregnancy, cats’ physical health improves.
🐀 Cat colonies provide natural rodent control for the neighborhood.
Removing cats creates a vacuum effect where new cats move in & the cycle repeats.
Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) is a humane, effective solution that prevents future litters & benefits cats & humans alike.
🐈 There is a decrease in unwanted mating behaviors such as roaming, yowling, spraying & fighting.
For years, people believed the best way to manage feral or community cats was to remove them from their environment.
They were taken to overcrowded shelters & often euthanized, simply b/c they weren’t socialized enough for adoption. This approach was not only inhumane — it didn’t work.
Through midnight tonight, every gift to PAWS’ TNR Program will be triple-matched by generous donors.
That means your donation will go 3X as far in providing life-changing spay/neuter surgeries & vaccinations to the community cats who need it most.
Tripled TNR gifts return for 24 hrs. only!
After the tragic collapse next to our Grays Ferry location, we paused this campaign to focus on staff & animal safety. The support we’ve received since has meant so much.

🐶 Dog care (outside time, exercise & enrichment, skill building)
It's especially meaningful that this year's appreciation week falls so soon after the support we received from our foster & volunteer community following the tragic building collapse next door.
We could not have gotten through the last 2 weeks without you all!
It’s Volunteer Appreciation Week!
Please join us in thanking the incredible animal lovers who make our work possible 👏
We celebrate our volunteers all year long, but we love having an extra reason to express our gratitude for their compassion & dedication 🧵

We are especially thankful for our staff, volunteers, fosters, friends, neighbors & extended community who stepped up to care for our animals, open your homes by adopting or fostering, donate funds to help cover the cost of this upheaval & offer words of kindness & encouragement.
We want to acknowledge while reopening is an important step, it remains a difficult & emotional time for our team & community.
We are deeply grateful for your patience, compassion & support.
Thanks to you, we safely evacuated every animal & provided for them w/o interruption, no small feat.
Our team has been working tirelessly in the building for the last few days to assess damage, clean & inspect equipment to ensure our facility is client-& animal-ready.
We were relieved to find our interior spaces in good condition & look forward to welcoming everyone back inside.
