PAW (Promoting Animal Welfare) is a not-for-profit organization established in February 2014 on Tortola, BVI by a group of animal lovers to help improve the living conditions for as many animals as possible within the BVI. Their current focus is on cats and dogs with the aim of improving the quality of their lives. Each animal that is selected for the program is tested for common diseases, vaccinated, and spayed or neutered. This process therefore not only improves the animal’s individual health, it reduces the chances of spreading disease while humanely decreasing the Island’s stray population.
