An independent directory of the real shelters serving the Hudson Valley and Catskills. We link to each organization's official website so you can verify services, adopt, volunteer, and give directly.
An independent community resource.
The Paw Syndicate is not operated by, owned by, or officially affiliated with the organizations listed below unless a specific collaboration is described in our stories. Every link points to the rescue's own official website — please verify services, hours, and donation details there before you visit or give. Looking for TNR help, low-cost spay/neuter, or county-by-county shelters? See our Hudson Valley & Catskills cat rescue resources. For full rescue profiles with adoption, foster, volunteer, donation, and TNR details, browse our Local Rescue Network.
We maintain a free, independent directory of verified Hudson Valley and Catskills rescues, linking to each organization's official website so people can find and support them directly.
We are not affiliated with these shelters, but we believe helping real rescues be found online is a small, honest way to start paying it forward.
As we secure our own cats' care, we hope to offer practical support, shelter-building help, and digital skills to shelters and colony caretakers. This is a developing goal, not a service we offer today.
Each listing includes the organization's official website, location served, services, and contact information so you can reach them directly.

No. Donations made through a shelter's official website go directly to that shelter. Paw Syndicate donations support the everyday care of our own eight cats in Wurtsboro — food, shelter upkeep, and veterinary care.
Your support goes to food, vet care, and the heated shelter keeping the cats safe.
