Mission

Provide an animal rescue service for abandoned or stray cats and dogs from metro Houston (Harris county) and surrounding counties, such Brazoria and Galveston. The Primary goal is to facilitate their adoption into permanent homes, which often requires transporting to out-of-state adopters. Prior to adoptions, Lone Star Pawz provides the necessary health screenings and certificates, vaccinations, spay/neuter procedures and ID micro-chipping.

Adoption services: 1306 cats and dogs were permanently adopted through Lone Star Pawz rescue in 2024. This was a 95% increase from 2023 statistics. This large increase was possible because of major organizational changes during the year. Office space was rented to improve our location for fosters access, veterinary care and new staff members. Administration and vetting staff was added to support the adoption process and coordinate animal care prior to adoptions. All adopted animals are provided with needed health care, vaccines, spay or neuter surgeries and ID micro-chips in preparation for adoption. Our long term objective is to increase adoptions, reduce the cost of medical care and focus on assisting local animal shelters by taking animals from their euthanasia lists. At this time approximately 7% of intake are from the euthanasia lists.

Of the 1306 adoptions placed in 2024 approximately 96% were transported to out of state adopters. This is needed since Texas has an over abundance of animals needing homes while many states in the Northeast and Rockies have fewer animals in shelters. Using outside animal transport services proved costly and issues arose with animal care and even lost cats during the transfer process. The decision was made in June 2024 to purchase a Ford transit van and outfit it for our own transport needs. This allows LSP to coordinate and manage the entire process. We can now accomplish three 3-5 day transports each month that carry at least 30-40 cats or dogs per trip. Our long term goal is to purchase a larger truck to provide more space and a more comfortable environment for both the animals and drivers.

Since Lone Star Pawz rented an office space in Pearland TX, the decision was made to section off a portion of it to open an "Catfe". It is open to the public to visit cats available for adoption or are awaiting a transport to their new homes. Extra income is made by the sale of drinks, snacks and visits with the cats in a controlled environment. This has proven to be very popular and income generated is used to support our services.
