PAWS is so grateful to have families such as your open their hearts and homes. Ultimately it's you and alike saving these lives by giving them loving homes.

 

Review for Pound Animal Welfare Society Of Montclair Inc., Montclair, NJ, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I have adopted several animals from PAWS - their volunteers do a great job of matching animals to homes- and they foster so they know the animals personality. They do an awful lot with very little money and are always helpful and caring. -

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

get them more money and grants

Review for Neighbor To Neighbor Network A Njnonprofit Corporation, Bloomfield, NJ, USA

Rating: 1 stars  

I volunteered for this organization in June 2011. They made it as difficult to volunteer as humanly possible. I joined the media committee and had to sign document after document stating that I would not discuss issues that arose in meetings, would not post on social media sites, was not to contact other volunteers, was not to contact the 501(c)3 board. I joined to post animals on petfinder- They had not posted a single animal for the animal shelter in 6 months. It took over 2 months for them to give me a password and even then they didn't give me the admin priviledges to post files and kept asking me to update the files on petfinder....but I couldn't. The long term in-shelter volunteers were great , cared deeply about the animals and knew their stuff. Shelter management was a farce and didn't care if animals were adopted or not. I would not volunteer for this group again. I WOULD NOT DONATE MONEY TO THEM EITHER.

Rating: 5 stars  

I've adopted several cats from PAWS - their volunteers are absolutely wonderful. We see them at the Montclair Farmer's market, on the Montclair Watercooler and on facebook working both social media and face-to-face introductions of the animals. We currently have 2 cats that came from PAWS ***Yeager*** a large male orange tabby who was named Farley and ***Eliza*** who stayed Eliza.
