Foster a rescued animal

If you can temporarily look after a rescued dog, cat or bird at your home, do contact us at info@pawspakistan.org

Adopt a rescued animal

We often post information on our website about animals looking for good homes. We vaccinate, deworm, spay/neuter and make sure they are healthy and good natured before putting them up for adoption. Street kittens and puppies make wonderful pets. Give one a chance today.

Help us find homes for rescued animals

Put a link about them on your facebook account.
Email the link to friends, family and colleagues.
Post their adoption notices on any appropriate discussion forums.
If you work in the print or electronic media, do a story on the animals to help spread the word about their rescue and adoption.
Print out adoption flyers from our website and put them up on public notice boards, such as at schools, coffee shops, supermarkets, etc. Be sure to get their permission first.

Organise a fundraising event with your friends

Write about animal and environmental issues for the print and electronic media

Donate supplies such as collars, leashes, cat baskets, cat and dog food, tick powder, etc.

    Ali, thanks for wanting to help animals. What we need help with most is finding loving homes for our rescued cats and dogs, all of which are currently living at volunteers’ houses. You could help us spread the word about them so that they can get adopted soon.

    Another way you can help is to write about animal related issues and submit them for publication to the print media. You could also write letters to the editor of newspapers if you ever spot a story that you feel strongly about. There is a great need to create awareness about the importance of animal welfare in our society. Articles can reach many people and do make a difference.

    You could organize a fundraiser at your school/college and donate the proceeds to PAWS, which would go directly towards helping rescued injured animals.

    We are also creating a network of people who would be interested in temporarily fostering any of our rescued animals. You can help add people to this list by asking your friends and family in Karachi if they would be willing to do so.

    Thanks for all your help!

    I have been looking after/feeding my compound cat and her off spring for 3 years now. Recently, I noticed a wound on the cat’s paw, a lot of swelling and some blood. I also noticed she was limping. I called Dr Zulfiqar and he arrived here with his assistant Dr Shehla. Seldom have I come across such caring, professional, dedicated and wonderful doctors. They immediately took charge of the situation, trapped the cat, which was very difficult, sedated her and treated her paw. They will be coming over to re-bandage her everyday for as long as she takes to heal. I am utterly grateful to them and to Dr Kathio who set up the Karachi Animal Hospital. I am so happy that such a service exists in Pakistan!

My husband works for The Nation and did a story about the caged birds some 6 months back. You give us more ideas, facts and figures and we shall write more.

    you are doing great job.
    i also want to give a suggestion here that there are some people here to become a volunteer but they are a little bit busy in their studiex and can only give time on weekends so there must be some organization or some caring school where we can come and participate and give time to different pets and can take care of them.
    anybody here knows such type of school or institute here????

    Some moment when the moon was blood
    Then surely I was born.

    With monstrous head and sickening cry
    And ears like errant wings
    The devil’s walking parody
    On all four-footed things.

    The tattered outlaw of the earth.
    Of ancient crooked will;
    Starve, scourge, deride me: I am dumb
    I keep my secret still.

    Fools! For I also had my hour;
    One far fierce hour and sweet:
    There was a shout about my ears,
    And palms before my feet.

    Hi,

    I am a lawyer in Karachi and was wondering about a plan in which corporations would adopt the animals in Karachi zoo. This would ensure a monthly contribution by the corporations as well as sufficient accountability of the proceeds that they are being used efficiently for the benefit of the animals. Such a plan would involve co-ordination with the zoo authorities as well as support from PAWS.

    Please get back to me if this plan seems feasible.

    hello,
    I am so much pleased to see how you people are working for a good a cause. I have a suggestion, most of us already having some good breeds of cats and dogs so its very difficult to adopt any of them why don’t you open an account in any bank where we can donate some money for these pet’s food or some box could be placed at universities, colleges and schools so that every will easily donate and one get to know about it. It is a very good cause and I want to become a part of yours.

    Hi, I was wondering if anyone could recommend a good reptile vet in Karachi. I have this baby turtle that has a deformed leg (The joints must have been dislocated once and we weren’t able to find a doctor who could help us when we found out, it was just really badly swollen one day and then it deformed from there), he was also sick when I got him, searching the net I think it was mouth rotting diesease. Also even though he seems to be growing his shell isn’t and if it doesn’t crack and splits open it will definitely suffocate him. The fungus (from mouth rotting disease) in its mouth decreased to a considerable extent that it dosn’t have to choke down the food with as much difficulty as before but its still hasn’t come down to a normal size and doesn’t seem to. The mouth rotting disease has also left its mouth broken, with only a bit sticking out which he uses to hold food to eat. His eyes are extremely swollen as well but he’s able to open and stare with them.
    I’ve been taking constant care of him, allowing only one hour’s worth of water time because I don’t want the mouth rotting to increase again and because it’s necessary to keep him hyderated, and I’m feeling him fish pellets as well as putting antibiotic cream in its mouth.

    I also keep him under a lamp, covered with a towel in a shoe box so he’s constantly sleeping. But when he wakes up he’s active and flighty and eats all his food.

    I’ve had him for more than six months now and I’m not sure how to further help him.

    Also my younger brother found this baby bird and I’ve kept it under the lamp rolled in a small towel as well. Its not eating or drinking anything, it has most of its feathers but because my house is filled with stray cats I can’t put it out in a bush or tree trunk.

      Sarah, we don’t know of any reptile vets in Karachi.. there are very few small animal vets practicing here to begin with (that we know of). We suggest you go to Dr. Isma (35851296), Dr. Otho (03212471053) or to Dr. Shalla (03226160876) tomorrow and get both your turtle and baby bird checked out. You can also call Veronique at 03343673237. She is not a vet, but has a lot of experience looking after turtles and tortoises, and so probably has seen such a disease before. Hope that helps.

    hi
    hope you guys are doing well
    well this mail is not about animal welfare ,actually i wanted to ask you guys that why was i blocked from posting on Paws page,I agree that i confronted one “mehvish Syed” but that was only after being provoked over and over again,and still i did not use any offensive language,i waited for some one from the admin to response,by either deleting the post or stepping in to resolve the conflict,but unfortunately i had to retaliate,i think you guys do know me as a person who has always been there with programs and schemes for animal benifits,helped in adoptions and rescues and have been an active and decent member.
    I hope that you guys will reconsider
    waiting for your response

    Is it possible for people in America to directly adopt some of the cats/kittens from your shelter or for a non-profit animal rescue group to become involved in helping to get some of the cats/kittens from Pakistan to the East Coast to be adopted?
    Thank you for all that you do for the animals there. It breaks my heart to know how cruelly they are generally treated. It gives my heart hope and brings tears of joy to my eyes that you are there helping and loving those precious animals the way they rightfully deserve to be treated. God Bless you and the animals you care for.

    I want to Volunteer but i don’t know how am i going to do this, really have a bad feeling when i see all the streets Animanls & Birds feel really helpless and was searching that some one must be there to help the God Creation. Yesterday i call my Vet Dr. Saud who told me about your PAWS institution. Since for last 3 days when i go and come back to office i saw a ill crow child on footpath who cant fly and finally yesterday i took him to my home where my vet told me to give him ORS which i did and i really feel satisfied, if somebody wants advice me please do so. I hope i will be able to make him fly back to the Sky. INSHA-ALLAH.
    Just want to ask why one has to kill the stray dog can’t be there any place where they can be kept and can be look after the God Creation.

I do not believe in killing stray animals, but wish to draw your attention to the internationally accepted and recommended method of vaccination and birth control of stray animals. Are there any vets who have experience, or would like to be involved in such a project in Karachi?

    Hello! My family had a very bad experience with Edhi Animal Rescue some years back and I thought I’d share it here.

    We found an injured puppy near our home once. Unfortunately, we were not in a position to treat it medically so we called up the Edhi service. The rep kept asking us what breed it was. We told him that it was a stray in desperate need for help. He said that someone was on their way and we should wait. No one came. We called them again and and here’s what he told us: ‘Sir, if it’s a stray, we recommend that you take care of it yourself. Even if someone picks it up from our end, you can be sure that they will dispose of it while on the way. So many strays get injured daily that the caretakers only accept good breeds which can benefit them somehow.’ With this, he hung up. The puppy lasted for some hours only and we did all we could on our own.

    I hope things have improved at Edhi now.

    Hi guys,
    I love the amazing work that you are doing to help animals in Pakistan and would like your advice. I have heard various accounts of animals suffering at the Islamabad Zoo and have also read an article of ailing elephants http://www.newspakistan.pk/2012/01/11/Massive-corruption-and-nepotism-threatening-Lives-of-poor-elephants-at-Islamabad-Zoo/
    Is there a way we can help these animals? I personally would rather have this zoo shut down, but am willing to “settle” with the animals being cared for, having proper shelter, medical treatment, and nutrition.

And I really ask every fellow members and there friends to please sperad this message and Save the animals, your single call may can SAVE the one life. And believe me you will be fell happy inside by doing so. Rest is up to ALLAH, if they survive or not. But at least you will fell good inside that you did your best.

    Two days back I spotted a kitten on my way to my sister’s home. Its rear limbs were fractured to the extent that the broken bones were showing and their sharp broken ends were piercing through the flesh and were gnawing at the other leg causing more wounds. I was disgusted by the cruelty of the person who having hit the cat went away without caring to take her to the vet. I thanked God that I spotted her. Thanked him again that she was still alive. I took her to Dr. Zulfiqar Otho. X-rays were done. He told me that the kitten would need metal rods in both of its legs to walk again. I was happy to hear that there was still a chance for her to be normal but I got worried as hell for the rods procedure is an expensive one.
    May be it was the sincerity of my intention to do anything to bring this helpless creature out of pain that my prayers were answered in the form of Ms. Mahera. She is willing to bear the expense for the cat’s procedure. I can not thank you enough, Ms. Mahera. Can not express enough how it felt to see great people like you with a heart of gold existed too. I wish more and more people like you were born everyday. May the brilliance of your soul and your noble mission touch every heart and you keep moving ahead. This help from your side means a lot. I am genuinely grateful. A million prayers for you and PAWS to flourish!
    The kitten will be operated tomorrow. Every one please pray for her!
    I will keep you posted Ms. Mahera. Thanks a lot once again. Thank you, Dr. Zulfiqar Otho for being there as well. You people are true saviors.

    Miss Mahera, the operation went successful! Alhamdolillah! It was a complicated one and I was scared to death but Dr Zulfiqar did it very skillfully and I am very happy with how good the cat is doing but there are still some wounds that are being bandaged on alternate days and it would take some time before she could walk.. Dr Zulfiqar is administring antibiotics too! :) Bless PAWS and Dr Zulfiqar!

    Today I have doped a small but injured kitten at Doc. Shalla clinic lets hope for the best that she survive. I think her both legs were broken while one eye was completely injured, but somehow she didnt catch the maggots. Otherwise i believe they would have made there way to her brain.

    Anyway pray for her. And thanks to Doc. Shalla.

    IF PEOPLE DONT ADOPT ANIMALS,ITS OK.BUT AT LEAST THEY CAN LEAVE THESE POOR CREATURES ALONE,ON THEIR OWN.NOT TO BE CRUEL WITH THEM. I THINK THIS WILL ALSO MAKE A DIFFERENCE,WISHFUL THINKING. U GUYS R DOING A WONDERFUL JOB .JAZAKALLAH.

    Hello PAWS. I am Asfa from Rawalpindi. I am 14 years old and I want to be a member of PAWS. Since I already have a cat and I live in a flat so I can’t help much but I would like to write articles for you to spread awareness of PAWS Pakistan and the importance of animals. I have already sent you an e-mail once for membership. Please give me this chance to help animals.

    Loved the cause raised by you. Atleast if not many but some humans are there who have feelings for these innocent creatures of Allah. I would like to know in what ways ur organization can be of help in the following scenario:

    on 1st of Nov, this year, i found 3 helpless puppies in my locality. They were being tortured by mischievious inumane boys who had put ropes in their necks and were dragging them on road. and when the small pups refused to be dragged and resisted, they would throw stones at them to make them move. For them it was fun. after 2 days at night i found them at my doorstep in very bad condition they were starving badly and their rib bones could be easily seen. Being an animal lover i immediately took them inside and since then these adorable cutiees are living with us. Once the boys manged to pull these from underneath the gate and with lot of struggle, we had to take the pup from those illetrate boys. In starting they used to cry whole night but with efforts now they feel comfortable and areq uite at peace. But, i have never had dogs before so now keeping them after almost 20 days with us, the problem is my parents are not happy with 3 pups in our home. I cannot put them out for those cruel boys neither can i keep them longer with me.

    1. in what ways ur organization can be of help in the following scenario?
    2. please guide me on how to keep street dogs at home, necessary vaccines and precautions?
    3. how to give flea free bath?

    P.S: i have never kept puppies and dogs as pets

    This is the email I wrote to several Animal welfare and rescue organizations but NONE of them volunteered for help.
    My First name: Shehryar
    My Surname: Kureshi
    E-mail address: Shehryarkureshi@hotmail.com
    Hello my fellow humans. My name is Shehryar Kureshi and I’m from Rawalpindi,
    Pakistan.
    I’m an animal lover(regardless of what animal it is) as I believe that every living creature is creation of God, has a soul like us and they need care and love from us.
    I used to have 25 cats (I’m a crazy cat lover) until some of them died
    due to some viral infectious disease. I tried my best to provide them
    the medical help within my limited resources but firstly we did not have
    qualified vet in the vicinity.
    The reason I’m writing to you is because now I have only 10-12 cats
    left. I’m living in a rented portion. My landlord warned me to either
    dispose off all the cats or vacate the house. I could not do either so I
    end up renting another separate portion for the cats to provide them the
    shelter, food and caring they need. They are just like my own kids(as I
    don’t have any kids of my own).
    Everything was going fine until I lost couple of my contractual jobs and
    my salary shrunk to a point where it is becoming difficult for me to
    continue paying for the rented portion for the cats. The rent of that
    portion is approximately $100 per month(excluding the cost of their food…the total gomes around $250-$300. I was wondering and hope that
    if ANY of you guys can either provide me the financial assistance which I need
    to pay off their monthly house rent or guide me to some person or
    organization which can help me with it. I’ll be really grateful to you
    because otherwise I’ll have no other option but to dispose off the cats
    which I don’t want to do but don’t have any other option. really worried n
    depressed. lost 10 kgs of weight due to this stressful condition. You can
    verify my status and everything about me whatever way you like. I’ll
    provide you all the details. Even you can ask any of your representative
    to visit me and have a look at that shelter house.
    looking forward to ur response.
    regards]

    I’ll have to vacate that rented portion(for shelter) in Feb,2013 at any cost because I don’t have sufficient salary and running out of my savings quite fast. I’m afraid that would mean that all the poor babies which I’ve been taking care of so far with good food,warm bedding n shelter in winters will be no more and I’ll have to dispose them off :(
    What other option I have…None…plz HELP!!!

    I found a litter of five new born kittens, all squirmish and wet. They were half frozen to death and I brought them home and fed them but my mom refused for them to be in the house any longer. Me and my friends are looking after them right now but they’ll surely die as we don’t have the resources, can we drop them off at PAWS?
