Mission and Vision
The mission of Senior Paws & Furry Friends is to create a safe, cage-free haven for abused, abandoned, and senior animals. The ultimate goal is permanent placement with a loving, responsible human or in the case of elderly animals, a life long retirement community environment

History
Senior Paws & Furry Friends was founded in October 2007 by Libby Shields, Leyanne Battle, and Debbie Dillon. Before founding the organization, the group members worked in a variety of business's, but spent much of their time as volunteers rescuing and caring for homeless and/or endangered animals. Seeing the overwhelming need in the animal rescue and support arena, the group eventually united their passion, knowledge and experience to work within this challenging environment.
Their intention was to form an organization designed to increase the safe options for keeping animals off the street and in warm, loving environments. The operation is currently run from the group’s individual homes, including fostering and animal care and continues to operate out of the staff members’ homes with a growing foster care and volunteer support base.
