PAWS Shelter of Central Texas is a nonprofit, no‑kill shelter based in Dripping Springs, Texas, serving central Texas since its founding in 1986. The organization provides medical care, ongoing sheltering, and companionship to homeless, abandoned, and abused animals and emphasizes giving each animal time to find a suitable home. As the oldest no‑kill facility in Hays County, PAWS focuses on long‑term care and adoption support, aiming to match animals with loving households. The shelter operates within the nonprofit sector and serves individuals and families seeking safe, humane solutions for companion animals, addressing animal welfare and community needs in the region. In addition to its core services, PAWS has engaged in partnerships, such as a collaboration with Pelsbarn in late 2025, reflecting community outreach and cooperative efforts to support animal welfare.
