Our relationships and encounters with animals of all species are extremely valuable. They teach us compassion, patience and how to love unconditionally. PAWS invites you to take a moment and send an Animal Tale, letting your words and pictures become an inspiration to others.

Animal Tales is a way to share your stories about the animals you love and admire. Tell us about the cat you adopted from PAWS last year or the robin you brought into PAWS Wildlife Center. Or honor a beloved companion who has passed on by sharing your fond memories.

Posting an Animal Tale is easy. Simply e-mail your story and photo to webmaster@paws.org. Please limit your story to 500 words or less and send only one or two photos. Please send photos in JPEG format. PAWS reserves the right to edit text as needed.

Posting an Animal Tale is free; however, a donation to support our life-saving work is greatly appreciated. You can also make a donation in memory of a person or an animal.

Thank you for sharing your stories.
