Our Mission
Our mission is to reduce overcrowding at the Palms N Paws Animal Shelter by supporting community-based spay/neuter efforts, helping keep pets with their families, and enhancing the adoptability of shelter pets through foster, adoption, medical, and rescue support.
About US
Pals of Palms N Paws is a nonprofit dedicated to supporting the lifesaving work of the Palms N Paws Animal Shelter in Twentynine Palms, California. We believe every pet deserves a chance, and every family deserves the resources to care for their animals.
Our work focuses on reducing shelter overcrowding by offering access to spay and neuter services, helping pet owners overcome issues that might otherwise force them to give up their animals, and ensuring that animals in the shelter receive the veterinary care, fostering, and rescue opportunities they need to find loving homes—locally and across the country.
We serve as a community bridge—working hand in hand with local residents, rescue groups, and animal lovers to create a safer, more compassionate future for pets in need.
