Our MissionPAWS is a champion for animals—rehabilitating injured and orphaned wildlife, sheltering and adopting homeless cats and dogs, and educating people to make a better world for animals and people.

Our VisionPAWS envisions a world where all people recognize the intrinsic value of animals and consistently make choices that demonstrate compassion and respect.

Dear Friends,

We are pleased to share PAWS’ 2014 Report to the Community with you, the generous community which we serve. This report is a celebration of the reach and impact of PAWS, and is meant to act as a report card of our work in 2014. Your support allowed PAWS to accomplish everything you will read in the following pages, and more. You will also see how we act as careful stewards of your investment in the animals.

Thanks to many generous donors and our incredible volunteers, PAWS was able to care for a record number of animals once again in 2014, coming to the aid of more than 7,500 wild and companion animals. From the 58 dogs whose lives were at risk had PAWS not stepped up to take them all in a single day, to the 33 cats who recovered at PAWS after a hoarding situation was uncovered in Shoreline, each of their unique faces and inspiring capacity for love and healing is the reason we strive to answer so many calls for help each year.

Apart from rising to the challenge of PAWS’ highest intake levels in a decade, thankfully, 2014 also found us on the path to a bigger and better home. With the purchase of 25-acres in south Snohomish County, and the selection of the architecture firm who will design PAWS’ new campus, the solution to our cramped and outdated headquarters began taking shape.

We couldn’t be more excited—both for the additional animals who will receive life-altering care thanks to innovative and purpose-built facilities, and for the community members who will benefit from new education programs there.

As you can see, 2014 was a truly exciting and important year for PAWS. With your generosity during this pivotal time, we are laying the groundwork to ensure that PAWS will be here for hundreds of thousands more animals over the coming years. Thank you.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Nancy PasternackPresident, PAWS Board of Directors

Annette LaicoChief Executive Officer

In 2014, PAWS continued our mission of championing animals in need, with a strengthened commitment to the core values that sets our organization apart. All of this, thanks to community support.

Your support of PAWS meant that shelter, food, medical care, exercise and enrichment was delivered to nearly 7,600 cats, dogs and wildlife in the Pacific Northwest.

PAWS was able to respond on behalf of 3,436 wild animals who were in need in 2014. Of those, 1,243 were songbirds of 57 different species, including 429 waterfowl like the majestic Hooded Merganser and the colorful Wood Duck. PAWS cared for 92 raptors, including hawks, owls, falcons, osprey and eagles, and 1,468 mammals, including eight Black Bears and 12 marine mammals.

In 2014, PAWS found new homes for 3,427 cats and dogs. This included dogs like Reba, a sweet seven-year-old Pit Bull mix who was unwanted after a divorce and surrendered to PAWS in January. Reba won over the hearts of PAWS’ staff and volunteers, so when adoption counselors found her perfect match, it was a success story felt across the whole organization.

PAWS Cat City adoption center in Seattle’s University District found homes for 1,324 cats and kittens, accounting for 60 percent of all feline adoptions at PAWS. Among the many felines who came into our care, 33 cats who were removed from a hoarding situation were brought to PAWS and successfully socialized and adopted.

In 2014, PAWS continued its contribution to important partnerships in animal care and welfare in the Pacific Northwest. Among others, PAWS collaborated with Beavers Northwest, Seal Sitters, The Audubon Society, U.S. Coast Guard, The Humane Society of the United States, ASPCA, and Wings of Rescue.

PAWS’ volunteers—the heart of our organization—contributed more than 52,000 hours of compassionate care for the animals at PAWS, including 272 work group volunteers from corporate organizations or schools who held a day of service at PAWS in 2014. Perhaps the highest profile group were the staff and reporters of KING 5 TV, who made PAWS their “Make a Difference Day” cause on October 25 and worked on site to provide an improved dog walking path and build a new fence. They used the occasion to share their PAWS experience with their influential social media audience, which proved to be a boost of awareness for PAWS in the Seattle marketplace.

Thanks to our trained and dedicated volunteers, the animals at PAWS benefit all year round. PAWS attracts volunteers from many professional fields such as mechanics, construction, photography, maintenance and landscaping. Their expertise, combined

with PAWS’ volunteer training, means that professionals from all walks of life can apply their knowledge and skill set to make our world a better place for animals.

Community members continue to turn to PAWS when they encounter animals in need. PAWS’ wildlife admissions staff assisted over 8,500 members of the public who called or emailed seeking answers to wildlife questions and humane solutions to conflicts with wildlife.

PAWS deepened relationships with partner shelters in 2014 and grew PAWS Foster Care Program, giving 1,884 dogs and cats a second chance. PAWS Placement Partners Program was successful in enabling 2,503 companion animals at risk elsewhere to come into care at PAWS. The program accounted for 59.7 percent of our overall intake of adoptable companion animals. One of the most celebrated partners in the program are the volunteer pilots at Wings of Rescue who worked with PAWS on a number of occasions, often to save loving companion animals who had run out of options elsewhere.

PAWS Shares Ideas, Knowledge & Compassion

PAWS continues its leadership role in animal welfare issues around the Pacific Northwest by serving on the boards of The Washington Federation of Animal Care and Control Agencies as well as the National Wildlife Rehabilitators’ Association. This involvement allows PAWS’ staff to share programmatic intelligence with colleagues at similar organizations, including presenting at conferences and symposiums both locally and nationally.

PAWS continues to deliver hands-on learning for many future veterinarians, providing internships for 14 veterinary students and 11 veterinarians in 2014. In this way, PAWS helps train professionals who can respond to animals in need in communities across the country.

PAWS reintroduced a volunteer internship program focusing on dog behavior in 2014. Dog Behaviorist Interns receive special instruction designed to advance their dog training

knowledge, and use these skills to help dogs in our care. As a result, these volunteers not only gain valuable experience, but help shorten the road to adoption for some of the dogs in PAWS’ care.

In 2014, PAWS introduced “Cat Behavior 101” to a ‘standing room only’ crowd of cat guardians in Seattle. The event’s popularity inspired “Cat Behavior 201: Cat-To-English” to an even larger audience around the region.

PAWS also reached out to our favorite kind of “early adopters,” the children in our community. PAWS Kids Who Care Program was delivered to over 400 elementary and high school students in schools throughout the region. This in-depth, six-week program is offered to students in grades three through five, encouraging them to understand their responsibility to the animals in our world.

PAWS stayed connected to communities throughout the region at events that mattered to local residents. PAWS’ outreach staff were present at 26 community events, including Tukwila’s Backyard Wildlife Festival, Karelian Bear Dog 5k, Seal Sitters’ Beach Cleanup, and Monroe’s Swift Night Out, to name only a few. This presence attracted new residents to the work that PAWS delivers and allowed us to engage with community members in their own neighborhoods.

Helping animal guardians understand their companions sets PAWS apart in the community. Here, PAWS Cat City supervisor delivers a free class to answer cat behavior questions.

PAWS Provides Professional Care for Animals

PAWS experienced a significant rise in wildlife patients in 2014, along with some of the most unique patients in our history. A four-month-old Steller Sea Lion pup, injured and weighing just under 100 pounds, was admitted to PAWS in the summer, inspiring a successful rehabilitation collaboration with the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration, U.S. Coast Guard, and The Marine Mammal Center. The patient, now healthy, was released back to the wild in the spring of 2015.

In 2014, PAWS cared for a number of threatened or endangered species, along with species of concern and sensitive species. Those species included: Guadalupe Fur Seal, Steller Sea Lion, Osprey, Western Grebe, Pileated Woodpecker, Vaux’s Swift, Northern Goshawk, Golden Eagle, Bald Eagle, and Peregrine Falcon. PAWS also continued collaborating with state partners on recovery efforts for the endangered Western Pond

Turtle, treating 34 of these patients for a life-threatening shell disease known as SCUD, or septicemic cutaneous ulcerative disease.

In addition to all of these threatened or endangered species, PAWS over-wintered five bear cubs and two bobcat kittens, all of whom are scheduled for release back to the wild in spring of 2015.

PAWS’ spay and neuter efforts helped 2,513 companion animals, with 578 of those being pets in low-income homes. PAWS’ medical staff also performed 233 specialty surgeries, an increase of 42 from the previous year. These medical procedures saved lives and increased the adoptability of cats and dogs in our care.

In 2014, PAWS helped reunite 65 percent of the lost dogs who arrived at our shelter, and returned 12 percent of lost cats to their guardians, which is far above the national average of two percent for lost cats. In addition, PAWS’ staff once again joined in World Spay Day by leading a multi-county effort. PAWS’ coordination of this regional event resulted in more than 1,300 spay or neuter surgeries being completed by 46 clinics across five counties.

Baby birds reach for food provided by experienced staff and volunteers, who deliver nourishment to these vulnerable young from sunup to sundown.

PAWS Foster Care Coordinator delivers medication to a foster kitten. Every animal at PAWS receives the medical support they need.

Above: Northern Flying Squirrels are a rare sight because they only come out at night and avoid human contact. This orphaned baby, along with her littermates, came into our care in September when their nest tree was cut down. PAWS’ staff and volunteers provided a safe haven and care for 42 days before they were released back to their natural habitat.

Cover: This puppy was one of 1,884 dogs and cats who benefitted from the extra love and attention that is provided by the PAWS Foster Care Program volunteers.

All of the animals pictured in this annual report, and thousands of others, were saved because of the support of people like you. Thank you.
