Help Us, Help Them

Dog and Cat Rescue


Paws and Claws Humane Society of McGehee has been saving the lives of unwanted dogs and cats in southeast Arkansas since 1994. Through our non-profit organization, thousands of stray and abandoned animals have found the loving homes they deserve. Through private donations and grants, we are able to offer financial assistance to pet owners for spaying and neutering dogs and cats in Desha and Chicot counties. In 2017, our rescue joined forces with two rescue organizations in New England to make an even larger positive impact in our community with our transport program. This program enables us to find loving northern homes for hundreds of unwanted dogs and cats each year. In 2019 alone, nearly 500 homeless and unwanted rescue animals were adopted by loving families. Our volunteers are committed to rescuing and rehabilitating even more dogs and cats this year. While many of our rescue animals are puppies, Paws and Claws is also committed to rescuing and rehabilitating older adult dogs, many of whom are suffering from heart worm disease. We provide the medical treatment and housing these dogs need so they too can live the lives they deserve. While heart worm treatment can be costly and time consuming, our Paws and Claws volunteers and our financial supporters believe our efforts make a difference. There are many ways you can help support our mission. Financial donations are completely tax deductible and every penny donated goes directly to the care of our rescue animals. We also encourage families in our area to become a part of our foster program. Fostering our dogs and cats short term enables them to not only receive the care they need, but allows them to learn to trust humans so they will be ready for their forever homes.
