No animal will be released to a new home on the day of the Kitty-A-Thon. All potential adopters will be required to fill out an application form first as part of our screening process to protect the animals.

All cats and kittens are current with inoculations. Adults are spayed/neutered. Kittens come with spay/neuter certificate.

*No animals are to be dumped at the Kitty-A-Thon. Abandoning an animal is illegal, punishable by 6 months in jail and a $2,500 fine.

In-kind tax-deductible items we could use:

• Postage stamps
• Humane traps -- optimum model is Tomahawk model 606 transfer traps (26"x9"x9"), but others considered
• Cat playpens for fostering & adoptathons (contact us regarding desired sizes)
• Kirkland Costco cat food

This is our one-time yearly mailing, which we cheerfully refer to as our official, written fundraising request. We will tell you about our 2007 accomplishments, our plans and goals for 2008 and how you can help us make a positive difference for the cats and dogs of Tillamook County.

The year 2007 proved to be another year of success and growth for United Paws.

Thanks to the continued help of volunteers and the Tillamook county community, we spayed/neutered 619 cats and dogs in 2007. We also raised just over $45,000 in 2007, almost twice the amount raised in 2006.

We appreciate your continued support and concern for the animals of Tillamook county.

You can help us find good homes for deserving animals by printing adoption posters for display in your business or organization:

With only a half dozen foster homes for the whole of Tillamook County, along with the occasional self- fosterer, literally hundreds of cats and dogs have gotten a second chance over the last 3-4 years.  read more »

Through a network of volunteer foster families, a number of wonderful and worthy dogs and cats are available for adoption in the Tillamook area.

Please visit our Adopt page to meet the available animals.
