It takes one person to abandon an animal.
It takes a community to get that pet adopted.
Desert Paws is a New Mexico non-profit, no-kill animal rescue and adoption service. We foster pets who are abandoned or are at risk of being killed at local animal shelters. We also work with families to KEEP their family pets. If a pet must be re-homed due to death/illness of owner, we help re-home the pet and avoid shelter placement. We believe in the no-kill concept. We are an all-volunteer organization and 100% of your donations go towards pet food and medical care.

We need VOLUNTEER FOSTER FAMILIES (we take care of the medical needs – you provide love and safety). And DAYCARE HELPERS are needed as well – some people work all day but want to foster at night/weekends so we need day care helpers who take the pups or kittens during the daytime and give them back to the nightime and weekend fosterers. We can really use your help! DesertPawsNM@live.com 505-702-9396
