PAWS, LEE COUNTY, INC.
FT MYERS, FLORIDA

PAWS, LEE COUNTY, INC., established on January 28, 2009, under Florida law with the filed number N09000000981, is an organization dedicated to addressing pet overpopulation in Lee County. Headquartered at 965 Ponddella Rd, N Fort Myers, FL, the company manages a Trap, Neuter and Release program aimed at reducing the stray and homeless cat population locally. While primarily focused on felines, PAWS occasionally assists dogs requiring homes due to neglect or abuse, emphasizing their belief in providing every animal with a loving, stable home environment. All adoptable animals are temporarily fostered rather than housed at the clinic, necessitating scheduled appointments for potential adopters to meet them. PAWS also educates on pet health, advocating neutering as a preventive measure against diseases such as uterine cancer, mammary cancer in females, and testicular cancer, perineal hernias, and enlarged prostates in males. The organization is governed by a team that includes key figures like Theresa Desilets-Ink, Dr. Thais Herrera, and Adrienne Gettman. According to records, the last public transaction was an amendment on December 27, 2021, while their most recent annual report as of March 12, 2024, confirms ongoing commitment to its mission.
