Paris Animal Welfare Society offers dog and cat adoptions to veterans in Paris, Kentucky and Bourbon County through its partnership with Pets for Patriots.

The shelter operates a satellite adoption center at the Petsmart in Lexington in order to increase the adoption potential of the animals in its care. In addition, Paris Animal Welfare Society offers a publicly available, low-cost spay/neuter clinic to reduce pet overpopulation and promote responsible pet guardianship.

Paris Animal Welfare Society welcomes monetary and in-kind donations; see their complete wish list for details. For a more hands on experience become one of their valued volunteers or fosters.
