Our Mission...
Our mission is to change the lives of animals in Colombia, by changing the culture of animal abuse and neglect present in and around the city.
Our mission statement can be broken down into three simple parts.
One: Provide safe homes in Colombia and the world.
We have successfully adopted out almost 300 dogs and cats within the United States, Canada, and Colombia.
Currently there is a CDC Ban that does not allow for animal importation into the U.S. Therefore, we work on finding homes for our rescues in Colombia.
Two: Our capture, spay/neuter, vaccinate, and release programs.
These programs are implemented within communities with high populations of stray animals in an effort to substantially decrease the need for future spaying and neutering,
and reduce the horrible cases of starvation and neglect that so many of the animals here in Cartagena are currently undergoing.
Three: Our most important component of our mission statement is education.
As many of our Cartagena Paws Team Members are educators and counselors, we understand very well the importance of educating the community about animal rights and awareness in order to help diminish the animal abuse, neglect, and illegal trafficking of exotic animals that is currently taking place in Cartagena.
