An important part of the Paws & Purrs philosophy is the concept of endowment. Whether in the form of time, talent or treasure, we certainly feel that giving back to our community is imperative.

We volunteer our time working with local cat shelters in our area, as well as advocating for our stray and feral population by providing them basic vet care and rehabilitation, then finding them new homes.

In addition, Paws & Purrs donates up to 10% of our net earnings annually to local, regional and international charities. Below is a list of the recipients for 2015.


GoodMewsGood Mews offers an alternative to traditional animal shelters in the Metro-Atlanta area by providing a no-kill, cage-free haven for homeless, abused, or abandoned cats until placing them in permanent, loving homes.  Good Mews promotes public awareness regarding the value of pets, animal welfare, pet overpopulation, and quality human-animal companionship through education and outreach programs.


BigCatRescueBig Cat Rescue, one of the world’s largest accredited sanctuaries for exotic cats, is a leading advocate in ending the abuse of captive big cats and saving wild cats from extinction.  We are home to about 80 lions, tigers, bobcats, cougars, servals and other species most of whom have been abandoned, abused, orphaned, saved from being turned into fur coats, or retired from performing acts.


Refuge Rescue, Inc., a non-profit 501(c)(3) charity founded in August of 2015. To continue to rescue, we must receive donations to help us pay for vetting and rehabilitation expenses, and provide care for these homeless animals while we get them adoption ready and search for a forever home. Our efforts are funded by tax-deductible contributions from people and organizations who care and want to make a difference in the lives of homeless animals.

Our mission is to save as many dogs and cats as we can from high kill shelters and to find them forever homes. To educate the public about animals in high kill shelter throughout Georgia and the responsibilities involved with pet ownership, such as spay/neuter, heartworm and flea prevention, and vaccines.

FurKidsFurkids operates the largest cage-free, no-kill shelter in the Southeast for rescued cats and a no-kill division for dogs. At these locations, animals experience the best care in a loving, safe environment until they are adopted into forever homes. The Furkids mission is to help end pet overpopulation in Georgia through sterilization, high-quality adoption and by providing valuable spay/neuter services and pet care education to people in the community.
