PUFFY PAWS TAKES CARE OF 200 SPECIAL NEEDS KITTIES. THEY EAT A PALLET OF CAT FOOD A WEEK.
IT COSTS $4.84 TO FEED EACH KITTY A WEEK AT PUFFY PAWS. $0.69 PER CAT PER DAY.
Every week, we reach out to the kitty lovers of the world, so that we can feed the kitties for the following week; this is why you are seeing us in your news feed.
We have no other options without local support, the kitties daily survival depends upon the charity of the kitty lovers around the world.
Puffy Paws Kitty Haven buys the cat food once a week from the wholesaler Phillips Pet Food & Supplies, and it is C.O.D, delivered on Fridays.
Puffy Paws Kitty Haven saves over $10,000.00 a year buying the kitty food wholesale, instead of retail like we used to.
It will be such a disaster when Phillips Pet Food & Supply tries to deliver the food on Friday and we cannot pay for it.
In the contract that we signed, non-payment of goods ordered will be dealt with by cancelling the account.
The kitties can not go on without cat food. That will be inhumane.
If we failed at raising the funds for the kitties cat food, there will be no other option but to close down.
What choice would we have?

An entire cat hospice will be wiped out, and only painful and sad stories will be told because we could not round up the worldwide awareness and financial help that these beautiful cats deserve.
This is the most cost effective way of creating awareness and raising funds that is working for us, week after week.
We have done everything we can to get the food cost lower, yet there is no way to get around the fact that we are taking care of 200 kitties who are living life to the fullest, 24/7.
I hope this helps you to understand why we need your help today, so we may feed the kitties, and how we raise the funds necessary to feed 200 special needs kitties that no one wanted.
We can never thank you enough for all that you do for the kitties at Puffy Paws.
A $5, $10, or $25 donation all adds up.
No donation is ever too small.
It is all up to what your heart and budget can afford to take care of the kitties. Every little bit helps.

Why Are The Kitties On A Premium Cat Food ?
We switched the kitties diet out of necessity to a premium cat food, years ago.
We had them on Friskies. It was not working out anymore for the kitties.
What eventually happened was, Friskies was like Chinese food or Taco Bell to the kitties. They will eat and eat, 70 pounds a day, and not get filled up. Being a Cat Hospice for Special Needs and unwanted kitties, we had to change their diet immediately.
In reality, it was never cheaper having the kitties on a diet that was not a premium one.
Please do not forget, a healthy diet meant less sick kitties at the vet throughout the years, since the change over.
Puffy Paws Kitty Haven buys the cat food once a week from the wholesaler Phillips Pet Food & Supplies.
We do not pay retail.
Phillips Pet Food & Supplies has been a family owned and operated business since 1938.
Phillips is the premier pet food and pet supply distributor with 12 distribution centers, and it is C.O.D every Friday.
Puffy Paws Kitty Haven saves over $10,000.00 a year buying the kitty food wholesale instead of retail like we used to do.
So, it was never cheaper having the kitties on a diet that was not a premium one.
This was the best decision to make in order to continue our mission here at Puffy Paws Kitty Haven in keeping the special need kitties and unwanted kitties under our care in the best health possible.
As you know, Puffy Paws cares for kitties with feline leukemia, FIV, feral cats, unadoptable kitties, one eyed cats, senior kitties, kitties that do not use their litter box, cats with neurological disorders, abused kitties and more - basically unwanted and unadoptable kitties that would be euthanized elsewhere, and the premium cat food fits all their nutritional needs.
Being a Cat Hospice for Special Needs and unwanted kitties, we had to change their diet in order to have the kitties in the best ultimate health.

Just by asking for help when the kitties need it.

Do You Adopt Kitties Out ?
In November 2009, we were dealt a major setback: a Sarasota County Code Enforcement officer showed up at the door to inform us that we were in violation of a code forbidding home-based businesses in our area. We adopted 300 kitties from the Haven until we were shut down.
Our adoptions rates have suffered because of evil hearts.
Throughout the years, it has been a long hard road in finding the kitties "Fur-Ever" homes. We have been doing all we can do in finding homes for the adoptable kitties under our care, as you shall read in Trials & Tribulation of Adoptions @ http://www.puffypawskittyhaven.org/trials-tribulation/
