    • Giuseppe Gattino Romano My shelter brother had to be separated from me (he was afraid, not me, I love everyone!) for THREE months. It was a super duper long introduction that had the humans worried but now we're good friends. He's still a little nervous nellie but I take it in stride.

    PAWS - Progressive Animal Welfare Society Not all of our wildlife patients are big! We're currently caring for this beautiful little bird.

    bit.ly
    This Red-breasted Nuthatch and a sibling were brought to PAWS on June 25 after their nest tree was cut down. It's a good reminder to carefully examine trees and bushes you are trimming to make sure there are no nests. Better yet, wait until fall to do your trimming when...

      • Deidre Blankenship Why the heck did they want to cut the tree down anyway? We need their shade and oxygen and the habitat they provide!

      • Bowser Fronczak It was a dead tree, and had been for quite some time before we moved in. It didn't seem like a big deal to us, but apparently the owner said it was starting to lean towards the power line to the house, so he wanted it taken down. :(

        • Edie Loyer Nelson Even grandparents have to do some extra petting before and after grandchildren's visits. My cat acts like a jealous child if she doesn't get the extra hug or two when grandchildren visit.

        • Arden Clise Great information. Too often pets are forgotten or worse, are taken to a shelter for no reason when a baby comes. They came first!

        On July 17 I had the privilege of reuniting a young Cooper’s Hawk with his family in a Seattle neighborhood. The bird had been brought to PAWS after a concerned citizen found her attached to a screen door. Most likely, the young bird had collided with the screen door during...
