About CLAWS

Closter Animal Welfare Society Inc. (CLAWS) was founded 40 years ago as Lost Pet Service, Inc.

CLAWS is not a shelter. We focus our time and efforts to rescue and foster abandoned or unwanted cats and dogs. With the help of a network of dedicated volunteers, we work to find the best permanent homes for these animals.

CLAWS has no paid employees, receives no funds from the state, and exists solely on donations and money we make from fundraisers and adoption donations.

CLAWS is licensed in the State of New Jersey as a non-profit 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization.
