Shoutout to the incredibly generous supporter who purchased a brand-new dryer for The PAWS Clinic! ❤️

With the amount of laundry we go through every day, a reliable dryer is a huge help to our team, and ultimately helps us keep our patients clean, comfortable, and cozy.

We are so grateful for supporters who see what we need and step up to help make our work a little easier. Thank you for keeping The PAWS Clinic running!

The PAWS Clinic is turning 15, and we’re creating a special Fall Apparel Line—but we want YOU to help design it!

Calling all artists, doodlers, graphic designers, creative weirdos, cat people, dog people and anyone who has ever thought, “I could make a pretty awesome T-shirt!”

We’re looking for an original design that captures the spirit of The PAWS Clinic and the importance of spay/neuter in helping reduce animal homelessness. ❤️

🎨 YOUR DESIGN CAN BE:

🐶 Dogs
🐱 Cats
🐶🐱 Cats AND dogs
🐾 Community/feral cats
✂️ Spay/neuter
😂 Funny & clever
❤️ Heartfelt & meaningful
🔥 Bold, edgy or totally unexpected

Basically… make us want to wear it!

📋 THE RULES

1. Be original!
Your artwork must be your own creation. No stock photos, internet images, copyrighted artwork, logos, clip art or AI-generated artwork that you don’t have the legal right to use.

2. Keep it PAWS appropriate.
Funny? YES. Clever? Absolutely. A little sassy? We’re The PAWS Clinic, so you know it’s allowed. 😂
But nothing hateful, discriminatory, political or inappropriate.

3. Think T-shirt!
Designs should work well when printed on apparel. Simple, bold designs are often the most wearable.

4. PAWS doesn’t have to be the star.
Your design can include The PAWS Clinic name/logo, but it doesn’t have to. The message and artwork can stand on their own.

5. One person can submit multiple designs!
Because sometimes one great idea leads to another… and another… and suddenly you have 14 T-shirt ideas at 2 a.m. 😂

🏆 THE PRIZE

The winning designer will receive:

👕 Their design featured in The PAWS Clinic’s Fall Apparel Line
🎁 A FREE shirt featuring their winning design
📣 Creative bragging rights + a shoutout on The PAWS Clinic’s social media
🐾 And the satisfaction of knowing your design is helping spread the spay/neuter message and support our mission!

👀 HOW WILL WE CHOOSE?

Our judging panel will be looking for:

⭐ Creativity
⭐ Originality
⭐ Wearability
⭐ Connection to The PAWS Clinic mission
⭐ How well the design communicates the importance of spay/neuter
⭐ And, quite simply… “Would we actually want to wear this?” 😆

📩 HOW TO ENTER

Send your original design to [email protected] by September 18th, 2026.

Please include:
• Your name
• Your contact information
• A short description of your design/inspiration
• Your design file (PNG, JPG or PDF preferred)

By submitting your design, you confirm that the artwork is your original work and that you have the right to grant The PAWS Clinic permission to use it.

The PAWS Clinic reserves the right to make minor adjustments to a selected design for printing, including sizing, placement and color changes.

The PAWS Clinic may select one or more winning designs, or decide that we need ALL THE GREAT IDEAS. 😉

So sharpen those pencils. Fire up that tablet. Grab your sketchbook. Let your inner crazy cat artist loose.

🐾 WE WANT TO SEE WHAT YOU’VE GOT! 🐾

🎉 It's a Family Affair! 🎉

A HUGE thank you to the Kenneth A. Scott Charitable Trust, a KeyBank Trust for their generous grant funding that makes this life-saving program possible.

With Family Affair:
✨ Mom is spayed for just $75
✨ Each kitten is only $5

If a kitten is too young for rabies or needs booster FVRCP vaccines, those will not be covered by the grant on a different day.

See the posted photo for full details and requirements.

📞 Appointments are required!
Call 313-451-8200 on Mondays at 9AM and leave a message. Be sure to mention “Family Affair” in your message.

We return calls in the order received. If you don’t hear back by Thursday, that means we’re full for the week—please try again the next Monday.

🔹 Available while grant funding lasts! If a kitten is too young to receive a rabies vaccine at the time of surgery, the rabies vaccine will not be covered at a later date. The client will be responsible for the cost of the vaccine once the kitten is old enough to receive it

A heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who has supported our fundraiser in honor and memory of the incredible Dolly Parton. We are so grateful to everyone who has donated through the Facebook fundraiser, and to those who have also donated through PayPal or stopped by the clinic with donations in Dolly’s name.

We’re thrilled to share that $421 has been added directly to our SPIN Fund from these additional donations! 🐾💜

The SPIN Fund helps people who may not otherwise be able to afford services for their pets, allowing us to continue providing high-volume, high-quality, affordable spay/neuter and wellness care to our community.

What a beautiful way to honor an incredible woman whose life was filled with generosity, compassion, and love. ❤️

💗 A little more love, a little more kindness.

As many have seen, the world lost a truly one-of-a-kind human this week. Dolly Parton wasn't just a legendary musician, she was someone who believed in giving back, helping others, and leaving the world a little brighter than she found it.

Her generosity touched millions of lives, and her legacy reminds us that you don't have to change the whole world to make a difference. Sometimes, you just have to help the one in front of you.

Here at The PAWS Clinic, we see that every day.

Every spay. Every neuter. Every vaccine. Every microchip. Every animal whose family needed an affordable option. It all adds up to fewer homeless pets and more animals getting the chance they deserve. All because of the kindness of our community.

So today, in honor of Dolly, we're asking:
Help us raise $1,000 in honor of Dolly for our SPIN Fund, which helps people get their pets spayed/neutered, provides needed vaccines and preventative care that they could not afford without a little help.

That's 20 people giving $50, 50 people giving $20, or 100 people giving $10.

🎀 Donate. Adopt. Volunteer. Share our mission. Help an animal in need.

Because kindness is always worth passing on.

Rest easy, Dolly. 💗
Thank you for teaching us that a life well-lived is one that leaves something good behind.
