People Helping Animals | PAWS 2010 Report to the Community
A Message from John Rubino and Annette Laico
Dear Friends,
We are pleased to present PAWS 2010 Report
to the Community—a celebration of the
thousands of lives touched by the work of
PAWS staff and volunteers last year. These
pages reflect the life-saving work we do and
the stories that move us.
Consider the story of a remarkable group of
students at the Louis Braille School for sightimpaired children. To overcome the youngsters’
challenges, our humane educators used wildlife
artifacts, recorded sound, and scented props
to create a remarkable learning experience.
Whether it was feeling the breeze from the wing
of an owl, listening to the melody of a songbird
or running their fingers through the coat of a
playful dog, these children responded with
amazement and utter joy.
Charlie the cat is yet another example. Rescued
from traffic by a Good Samaritan, the Calico
was brought to PAWS where our veterinary
staff treated his many broken bones. He was
then fostered and later adopted by a volunteer.
Charlie’s life was saved by a team of dedicated
and determined people.
PAWS touches countless lives because of your
generous support and your place on this team.
In the following pages, you’ll see how we value
and respect your financial support by acting
as careful stewards of your investment. Thanks
to you, PAWS remains a strong and financially
stable organization, poised to continue serving
our community for many years to come.
Together, we will remain people helping
animals—and vice versa.
With heartfelt thanks,
This is the kind of determination we see every
day. It’s the determination of a child to learn,
an animal to survive, a veterinarian to heal,
a volunteer to give.

PAWS Helps Animals Find Their Way Home
For 43 years, PAWS has provided humane
and expert care to hundreds of thousands
of animals who had nowhere to turn. Today,
in addition to providing the best in skilled
care, PAWS has become a voice for those who
have none. We speak out for animals with
compassion and dedication throughout the
community.
With your support in 2010, we were able
to make remarkable changes in the lives of
thousands of animals:
• PAWS found loving homes for 2,217
companion animals and reunited 377 lost cats
and dogs with their joyful guardians.
• PAWS Cat City began the move from its
original home in the Greenwood neighborhood
(where it’s been since first opening in 1997), to a
larger more welcoming space in the University
District, becoming the “premier cat adoption
center in Seattle.”
• PAWS cared for 2,863 wild animals. Of
the 154 different species in care, more
than 30 were species of concern or sensitive
species, including six Bald Eagles, four
Peregrine Falcons, and 16 Western Grebes.
As Washington State’s only full service
wildlife center with emergency and long-term
veterinary care, we’re often the only option for
these sick, injured or orphaned animals.
Our Mission
PAWS is a champion for animals—
rehabilitating injured and orphaned
wildlife, sheltering and adopting
homeless cats and dogs, and educating
people to make a better world for animals
and people.
Our Vision
PAWS envisions a world where all people
recognize the intrinsic value of animals
and consistently make choices that
demonstrate compassion and respect.
• PAWS is often the first phone call when
Northwest bear cubs are found in crisis. This
year wildlife officials in Washington and Oregon
delivered 12 injured or orphaned bear cubs to
PAWS. Three of these cubs were transferred to
a care facility in Idaho, one was euthanized after
suffering a paralyzing gunshot wound, one was
successfully released shortly after arriving at
PAWS, and the other seven received long-term
care over the winter. The expert skills of our
veterinarians and rehabilitators made it possible
to treat these cubs and eventually release
them back into the wild, where they now have a
second chance to thrive.

PAWS Helps People Help Animals
forever homes. These are usually kittens and
puppies either too young for adoption or still
in need of socialization. Foster families also
provide homes for animals recovering from
injuries or illnesses. The extra attention and
care they receive often results in a quicker
recovery.
In 2010, the PAWS credo of people helping
animals (and vice versa) was put into action in
several unique and important ways. With vision,
passion and expertise, PAWS continues to be a
powerful resource in the community, operating
the largest full-service care facility for wild and
domestic animals in the Pacific Northwest.
These are some of the many ways you partnered
with PAWS to improve the relationship between
people and animals in 2010:
• 1,483 PAWS volunteers gave more than
50,000 hours of service to animals. From
walking dogs and cleaning kennels, to feeding
orphaned baby birds, PAWS volunteers
continue to give of their time and their hearts.
• The shelter medical team performed 430
low-cost spay/neuter surgeries for pets of
low-income members of the community. This
exceeded our goal by 40%. Including our
shelter animals, the medical team altered a
total of 1,840 dogs and cats.
• The new paws.org debuted to outstanding
reviews, landing more than 35,000 new
viewers, and quickly winning three awards
for website design and content from Seattle
Weekly.
• PAWS Foster Care Program saved the lives
of more than 1,200 dogs and cats. Foster Care
Volunteers are crucial in the adoption process.
These “heroes” provide love, food and shelter
for animals that aren’t quite ready for their

PAWS Empowers with Ideas and Knowledge
In 2010, PAWS continued to be an advocate for
animals in the classroom, the community and in
the halls of the state capitol; reaching a record
number of students, families and local leaders.
• PAWS Humane Education Program reached
more than 5,000 children by delivering 223
presentations to Western Washington students
on topics of responsible pet care, dog safety,
and respect for wildlife and the environment.
The heart-tugging stories and questions we
receive from students illustrates just how
important this education is for our community.
PAWS helps young people to recognize and
report animal cruelty, deal with the loss of a
family pet, and understand our relationship with
wildlife. This education creates lasting change
in the students and their families.
• PAWS hosted the 2010 National Wildlife
Rehabilitators Association Symposium (NWRA)
in Bellevue, Washington. The Symposium
offered more than 85 sessions, workshops and
meetings, and a birding trip to Spencer Island.
The event was attended by more than 411
wildlife professionals (representing 42 states
and seven countries). These forums are critical
for increasing knowledge and connections
among wildlife experts, while advancing best
practices for the care of wild animals.
• PAWS attended more than 30 fairs and
festivals across Western Washington in 2010.
The orange PAWS tent has become a familiar
beacon of information, providing thousands
of people with educational materials and
counseling on companion animal and wildlife
issues. Community outreach has an immediate
and positive impact on animal welfare, helping
people create healthy relationships with
companion animals as well as a respect and
understanding of wildlife.
• PAWS provided expert opinion and
testimony on legislative issues such as the
wildlife feeding ban and the spay/neuter
funding program. We promoted public
involvement with a targeted series of electronic
action alerts, while educating the public
through paws.org, web blogs and e-mail
campaigns. As we have for more than four
decades, PAWS continues to speak on behalf
of the animals, helping shape more humane
policies in Washington State.

In 2010, PAWS provided release from suffering through humane
euthanasia for 1,153 wild animals whose injuries, illnesses or
circumstances precluded treatment and release into their
native habitat.
PAWS Provides Professional Care for Animals
Thanks to critical support from volunteers and
donors, PAWS was able to save the lives of
thousands of animals in 2010:
• PAWS shelter veterinarians performed 201
specialty procedures and surgeries on dogs
and cats in 2010. During the year, the medical
team saved a remarkable 89.4% of all animals
treated. This is an astounding degree of success
given the wide array of medical conditions
in the dogs and cats we receive each year,
and illustrates the dedication and expertise
our veterinarians bring to PAWS and to our
community.
Green number 110, as the doe was tagged,
was a patient at PAWS until she was released in
2007. The sighting proved that the doe not only
survived, but had mated and given birth.
• In 2010, PAWS Wildlife Center provided
hands-on training for seventeen veterinary
students, veterinary technician students,
and wildlife rehabilitators. This program is
one of few in the state for students to get
hands-on experience in wildlife medicine.
PAWS Companion Animal Services hosted
17 students, veterinarians, and foreign
graduates. Today, these expert men and
women make contributions to animal care in
Washington and all over the world.
• In August, a well-intentioned couple
mistakenly “rescued” a harbor seal on the
Washington coast. For 12 weeks, our staff
provided care for the seal as he learned to
fish for food in a secluded pool where contact
with humans was limited. After three months in
our care, the seal had grown to a healthy fifty
pounds, and was successfully released back to
his native waters.
• In July, a doe and her fawn were spotted
walking up a driveway at the Heernett
Environmental Foundation in Tenino,
Washington. The staff identified the tag number
on the doe’s ear and reported it to PAWS.

PAWS helps dogs stay healthy and happy while waiting
for adoption by walking them at least twice a day.
They also learn to socialize during “play” periods with
other dogs. Some dogs (like this handsome fella above)
receive “Good Dog” training from staff and volunteers.

State wildlife agents brought this Bobcat to PAWS in June 2009. During her
year of care at PAWS, she grew from a 1.7-pound kitten into a gorgeous
20-pound sub-adult Bobcat. She was released in Capital Forest in June 2010.
(See her arrival at PAWS on page 9.)
