Shelter Projects

There is always lots to do at 4Paws Animal Shelter and we sometimes have to take all the help we can get, including the unwilling recruits, left.

We’ve shown below some updates on our very latest projects.  We simply couldn’t do these special projects without the very generous donations and assistance of the public.

If there is anything you can donate towards our special projects, please visit our Wishlist and Donation pages.  All assistance is truly appreciated!

2021 PROJECTS

SICK BAY

This cattery is specifically for all our sick fur-babies that will need the extra love and affection to get better. With this cattery we hope to quarantine any sick kitties and keep them away from the healthy cats until they are well enough to be put with their companions again.

This will also serve as a refuge for any new cats that come in, keeping them separate until they are tested is a vitual step to keeping our colony healthy.

We need:

  • new houses or materials to fix the existing ones
  • to de-weed
  • fix up the garden
  • new fencing
  • need to clean out all the unnecessary things
  • cement or re-cement floors
  • new bed for the sickly
  • new water bowls and food dishes

And anti-biotics for the sickly( doxie biotic, petcam etc.)

Boarding Kennels 

Our shelter is looking to create a safe destination for the Animals who can’t go with their owners on business trips and vacations. We are also looking to create a Stable income for our shelter as alot of people are struggling and donations don’t come in as often as they used too.

We need people who know how to build proper enclosures for the fur-babies, even if you aren’t a professional. Below is what we would like our kennels to look like.

For this project we will need:

  • Fencing for the boarding area
  • Fencing for the enclosures
  • Planks/boards
  • Latches
  • Doors
  • Vanish for the wood
  • Paint
  • The tools needed to pull everything up( screw drivers etc.)
