PAWS is a volunteer-based, no-kill shelter in the Creston Valley. We are dedicated to finding loving homes for abandoned, rescued, surrendered, and abused pets in the Creston Valley (covering RDCK Districts A,B,C, and the Town of Creston).

We educate the public through community outreach. We provide veterinary care, rehabilitation, socialization, and spaying or neutering as required. Community outreach is achieved through education, re-homing assistance, and reuniting lost pets.

PAWS philosophy as a no-kill shelter means that PAWS pets that don’t find their furever homes live out their lives, loved and cared for at the shelter or fostered by volunteers.

We are not affiliated with or funded by the BC SPCA, or any municipal or provincial branch of government. Our funding comes strictly from donations, fundraising, and grants.

Lilli  I'm a PAWS Pet! Click here to find out more about me. Lilli is a lovely Tuxedo girl. She is quiet, attentive, smart, and curious. This pretty girl is happy to be independent, but she enjoys hanging out with her PAWS volunteers. Lilli loves a big window to watch the world from. She enjoys gentle pettings and a good chat. This nice cat would love to find her furever home...we just know that her perfect family is out there! And she is a Seniors for Seniors cat! Lilli would be ok with another like-minded cat in her new home. Call PAWS to arrange to meet this pretty girl!
