PAWFirst

PAW First Rescue is located in Ponca City, Oklahoma. We consist of a group of volunteers who assists the local Animal Control and other sources to minimize the euthanasia rate in our community by finding homes for abandoned and unwanted animals.

Pets For Life Rescue operates solely on donations and help from volunteers. Our adoption fee, helps cover the medical care for the animal. All animals are spayed/neutered when they reach sexual maturity, current on vaccinations, treated for worms, fleas, ear mites and any other medical need the animal might have.

Pets For Life Rescue members are ALL VOLUNTEERS. Every penny you donate to the Pets For Life Rescue goes directly to our canine and feline friends. None of our volunteers are paid or compensated from any income/donation received.

We require an adoption application be filled out and approved, see below. Our adoption application helps us to get to know your needs and wants in an animal companion, and helps us to make sure each animal finds the best home possible. Every animal's temperament is different, so the more information we share, the better placement we can make for you and our animals. We also do a vet check to ensure the best possible placement that will last a lifetime. All applications MUST be filled out completely to be considered.We DO NOT ship our animals and MUST meet the adopter. We require that you live within driving distance of Ponca City to adopt one of our foster pets. Adoption fees can vary, as each animal may require different medical treatment. Some of our pets will be listed as a VIP, meaning they are in high demand for adoption and quickly find a loving home, their adoption fee is higher than the other pets in our rescue. Because of this, they will leave a financial legacy for the other animals in our care who may need expensive medical care or more time to find a loving home.
