Dear Members & Friends,
Paws of the Planet has had a great run.........

In our collective efforts to "Shelter our Friends with Fur, Feathers & Flippers", we've had a lot of fun, worked really hard and in the process succeeded in Making A Difference for Animals......

......all kinds of animals from elephants, to pygmy marmosets, to condors to tigers, to dogs, cats, turtles, horses, pelicans, sea lions and many more.

Working with you on behalf of animals has been a true privilege. We tried to create different ways to educate, to create awareness and to raise money through grassroots fundraising.

Thank you for supporting our programs & projects by volunteering, attending and hosting our events, donating hard earned money and in-kind donations. Thank you EcoArtists and all of you who answered our holiday appeals by bringing blankets, towels and toys so Orange County Shelter Animals would be warm and cozy.

Thank you for writing stories for our newsletters......
and thank you for being our cheerleaders.

It's with great pride in our accomplishments that we tell you Paws of the Planet, as a non-profit charity, will phase into the annuls of history on June 30, 2012.
