Participate in Annie B’s Fundraiser!

Paws of Chico Spay & Neuter Program needs your support to reduce the number of unwanted litters of cats and dogs Chico!

Animals do not have a voice! As a community, we are responsible for addressing our overpopulation of cats and dogs.  Since September of 2005, Paws of Chico has helped pet owners spay and neuter over 2,200 cats and dogs. We have prevented 2,933 unwanted kittens and 1,728 unwanted puppies. Our goal is to continue increasing the number of owners and animals whom we are able to help each year.

We are the only Chico group that provides a voucher program, veterinarian referral, and helps with transportation. The most effective way to stop the suffering of unwanted animals is through spay and neuter. 
The Annie B’s Community Drive sponsored by the North Valley Community Foundation is an opportunity to help the animals. Donations can be made from August 1 - September 30.
