Donate an "In Honor of" Bed
Donate a bed to a shelter cat or dog while honoring, remembering or celebrating your own companion animal or animal-loving friend or family member. We will sew a patch onto one of our handmade with love shelter beds and send you a picture before it goes to the city shelter. Please include the name of your animal.
Why Comfort & Love?
When homeless animals come into a shelter, it is most likely because they have experienced abuse, neglect or abandonment. Any animal shelter is a stressful place. Pillows for Paws believes that the emotional well-being of these animals is a crucial factor in helping their overall health.
PFP's mission is to support a positive environment for shelter animals. The group does so by providing comfort items such as cozy beds, toys to keep them active, and yummy treats. When an animal feels supported and loved, they have a greater sense of ease and calm. Plus, they have a better chance of being adopted when they are relaxed.
Our Volunteers
At this time, we are offering Zoom classes to learn how to make our shelter beds or you can visit our DIY page for ways to make our shelter toys for cats, dogs, rabbits, and guinea pigs at home.
Even though we can't hold our normal in-person meet-ups, our mission still remains the same.
