PAWS Magazine Issue 61, Summer 2005 Here for the animals when it counts It all adds up when you care for nearly 10,000 animals each year. PAWS does the math...  121.35 number
of dollars raised by Mrs. Pfalzgraf’s second grade
class at Snohomish Central Primary by selling licorice
at school lunch. Kids are great at finding creative
ways to help the animals at PAWS.
 1 the
solitary and seriously lost albatross treated at PAWS’ Wildlife
Rehabilitation Center and Hospital this spring, just
one of 240 different species cared for by PAWS since
1981.
 67,000 number
of puppies that one unspayed female dog and her offspring
will produce in seven years. There simply are not enough
homes for them all. PAWS helps by spaying or neutering
every animal we adopt into permanent loving homes.
3,884 number
of kitten and puppy paws that scampered through our
life-saving Foster Care Program last year. Interested
in fostering a bundle of fur? Call us!
 392 number
of night shifts worked by Dawn Redemann, volunteer
Wildlife Care Assistant since 1991. Our volunteers
inspire us every day, working alongside staff to help
save lives. Way to go Dawn!
 480,000 number
of baby bird hand-feedings in a single year at PAWS.
Your gifts help provide food for all the orphaned and
injured baby wild animals we rehabilitate and release
back into the wild.
 798 number
of kids who participated in PAWS’ humane education
programs in May 2005. Talk to the children in your
life about responsible care for companion animals and
respect for wildlife. Kids love animals, they will
listen.
 38 number
of rehabilitated mallards released in June 2005, from
a total of 133 animals returned to the wild that month.
Not forgetting the one long-tailed weasel.
 2,184 signatures
collected as of mid July on an online petition to end
the Omak Suicide Race. Read the Spotlight on Page 3
for how you can help save the horses of Omak.
 12 number
of puppies in the largest litter cared for at PAWS
this spring. Hungry and covered in filth and fleas
after being rescued from neglect, the pups received
good food, medical care, much-needed baths and love.
