A Story of Stewardship – The recognition stems from a recent incident where Mr. Eric discovered a vulnerable kitten abandoned on a roadside. Rather than passing by his immediate intervention ensured the animal was removed from harm’s way and brought to safety.

Following the initial rescue, Paws-Ability stepped in to provide the essential care and resources necessary for the kitten’s recovery. Their ongoing commitment to animal rescue and community education continues to make a measurable impact across the coastal region.
