Friendly people and nice supplies. Can go up to 1 x a month and get up to 3 items, not including flea control and other small things. No verification or special permission needed. For vet care, the list is very long and takes 6 weeks just for an appointment.

Amazing people!! So grateful to have asomewhere to take our animals & have them professionally cared for and all they ask in return is just a $5 copay!! They not only clipped my cat's nails, gave her her shots, her flea medication & microchipped her. Phenomenal!!! They are a true blessing to those of us that are on low income. Their new location also makes it so much easier to get to them compared to where they were originally on the other side of the river.

Hello, Tom! It would be best to reach out to Feral Cat Coalition. They are set up to spay and neuter feral cats that may not be able to be domesticated. http://www.feralcats.com/ However, you can also reach out to the Oregon Humane Society or Multnomah County Animal Shelter about the cats or kittens. They will ensure the kittens get vaccines, spay/neuter services, and go to new homes.

Do they help the homeless and pennyless with there very best friend that has a bad teeth problems ? My little 10lb. Mix crys when she trys to eat I don't know what to do?????

How much in total would it cost to get my roughly 4 month old kitten fixed, all her shots, and registered? I have 2 weeks to get all these or i get evicted

kitten Estelle | Aug 18, 2018

If you are low income you can go to the humane society on Colombia blvd. and get a voucher towards the cost of the surgery. Companion pets has a discount day every week and if you schedule for that day, you will get a discount on the surgery and if you have a voucher from the humane society, it will cover it.

If I’m a 15 year old and I have a 9-10 year old cat who looks like he is in pain. What do i do? How do I qualify and how much does an exam cost?

Sammy Avila Hurtado | Aug 18, 2019
Dawna Doering | Aug 18, 2019

(I used to intern in their office) PAW Team is there primarily for homeless and/or poverty stricken people. They also require pets to be spayed or neutered. Since you are a minor, qualification would be based on your family's income. Dove Lewis is an Emergency Animal Hospital and unfortunately, their fees are high. I don't know if this is still the case, but Banfield Pet Clinics used to have a free exam for new customers. BUT ANY TREATMENT IS NOT FREE. So that might be an option if kitty hasn't gone to Banfield before and you are only interested in finding out what's going on with kitty. Sorry this is so lengthy, but I really hope everything turns out for both of you. 🐈

Do I need an appointment?

A Google User | Aug 18, 2019
Portland Animal Welfare Team | Aug 18, 2019

Hi there! Yes, for vet care you will need an appointment. Clients can leave a message on our appointment line, and we reach out when we have appointments available. The first step is to become a qualified client at PAW Team. You DON'T need an appointment for that. We are open Tues-Thurs from 10-3. We do 10 interviews per day right now. You can learn more information on how to qualify by calling 503-206-6033.

Is there anybody that can help me with training for my dog.Iam a 54 yr old homeless lady with my dog. I cant take him out around people or other animals. He gets very agressive n goese after people.So its kinda hard to get services or into a shelter

Theresa Snider | Aug 18, 2019

Until you can get the help you need, I would get a no bite muzzle. I had to buy one years ago and it was great for what it is. This type of muzzle is made of durable coated wire and good sturdy leather. It allows your dog to bark, eat, drink and pant but does not allow him to bite keeping him and the public safe. Always reward go behavior with a mix of love and healthy for him treats. Pawteam has a great mix of high quality dog food that I use as a reward for my service dog. I currently buy puppy chow as she is only 9 months old. Try also talking to a veterinarian for ideas as well. Good luck with your boy. I pray your life turns around for the better for both of you.

How can I get my dogs old vaccine records from them? About 2 to 3 years ago she got her shots with Paws

Lerena Powell (Roo) | Apr 19, 2022
Rebecca Davis | Apr 19, 2022

Call the phone number on the website it will give you prompts to the operator. They are extremely helpful. They do not answer the phone but they will return your phone call just leave a detailed message. They have called me back within a week of my phone call. Remember everyone there is a volunteer. So things do take a while, but it is free. So keep in mind these people are doing it out of kindness. You have to be a little patient. They have wonderful vets and a wonderful staff. I've been so happy with them. Good luck.

Do they do dental work?

ralph fisher | Aug 17, 2020
Esther Thompson | Aug 17, 2020

As far as I know, only when they have a vet or clinic that volunteers. They keep a list of people whose animals need dental work and when they have something they go off the list. My dogs been on the list for over a year. If your pet is in really bad shape I would say it's worth getting a hold of them.

God much does an office visit cost?

A Google User | Aug 18, 2019
Portland Animal Welfare Team | Aug 18, 2019

PAW Team asks for a $5 co-pay per animal per medical appointment, however no one is turned away due to lack of funds. We also have access to run some labwork panels at a discount, and are eligible for county licensing at a discount. All of these things are available for clients after the qualify for services here.

When going in to apply for lab work and over all exam- do I bring my dog? Or will I even get a chance to set an appointment that day? Just don't want to take him out of the house if not necessary.

George Thrower | Aug 18, 2019
Marci O'NEIL | Aug 18, 2019

You should call first to verify. The last I heard they weren't doing chronic care clinics.

Do you do free pet exams?

Cay Candance | Aug 18, 2019
Alita Beach | Aug 18, 2019

Yes they do, if you qualify. You have to go in and see if you qualify. (Go in Tuesday-Thursday 10-3. Id recommend going early as they are first come first serve, and they only see so many qualifications a day.) If you do qualify, then you can call and make an appointmet to get your pet examined. They do ask for a little money for examinations but they will not turn you away if you cannot pay. Stuff such as labs may cost a bit more but it is vastly reduced. If you have any more questions i would go in and inquire or check them out online. They are always very helpful and willing to answer questions for you. You can call, however, PAW team does not answer phone calls and works on a voicemail return call basis so it can take a bit for them to get back to you as they are generally very busy.

We have a kitten that is in heat. We are low income. We want to get her fixed, but we can not afford to do it. What can we do to keep her from getting pregnant and having kittens we can not afford to care for?

Tim Aslin | Aug 18, 2018
Mary Stevens | Aug 18, 2018

Call the Portland Animal Welfare Services (PAWS). THEY ARE OPEN TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY 10-4PM. They will have you show proof of income and the they qualify you, and the Oregon Humane society calls you to bring the cat in. In the meantime, keep her locked up like in the bathroom or something. They do a great job caring for your pet. Happy New Year!!! Hope this is helpful.πŸ˜πŸ‘πŸ€—
