Pawsitively Seniors Program

Overview:

Pawsitively Seniors Program is a Joint Partnership between PALnv and its approved partners.


Project Description:

Pawsitively Seniors is designed for low-income seniors whose quality of life would be enhanced as a result of the many positive effects of pet ownership. By matching senior or special needs cats with senior people this program is a mutual benefit for all.


Low-income seniors are defined as 60 and over with an income of $1,800 per month or less. 


Senior cats are defined as 8 years and older, who have been spayed/neutered and are current on vaccinations with general good health. Special needs cats are those who have manageable behavioral or medical issues.


The Pawsitively Seniors program includes: 

· Free food and litter delivered on a regular schedule, if needed

· Free medical care from a program approved veterinarian, including prescribed medication

· Free transportation to and from a participating Vet

· Monthly visits from PALnv to check on the cat and senior


Responsibilities of PALnv:

1.  Provide food and litter for program participants, if needed

2.  Solicit donations of food and litter for the program

3.  Qualify seniors for the program and complete adoption paperwork

4.  Provide monthly report tracking to donors (with input from HCWS)

  • Number of senior people in program
  • Number of cats in program
  • Volunteer hours to operate program
  • Food and litter provided to cat owners

5.  Provide volunteers to deliver food and litter, check on senior, and cat’s needs

6.  Provide cats for adoption

7.  Cover veterinary care costs at program approved verterinary hospitals

  

Goals of Pawsitively Seniors:

· Place 24 senior or special needs cats in appropriate seniors’ homes in first year of the program

· Sign up committed volunteers to service cat deliveries and check ins

· Delivery of food and litter to each home, every four weeks, as needed

· Transportation to participating Vet – as needed and if resources are available
