ENRICHING THE LIVES OF OUR SHELTER ANIMALS
While nothing can compare to the comforts of home, Precious Paws strives to provide an enriching environment for our shelter animals. Founded in 1991 as Hibbing Animal Shelter and Humane Society (Our Corporate Name). Re-established in Chisholm in 2011 as Precious Paws Humane Society of Chisholm. We are a professionally managed volunteer shelter.
Cats are housed in rooms built specifically for small sociable groups of cats. These “condos” feature exterior windows and multiple cat trees and perches to provide a warm, comfortable environment for our feline friends, helping to bring out the best aspects of their personalities. Cats who prefer personal space enjoy their privacy in individual, multi-level kennels.
Each dog is provided with a spacious kennel as their own individual space, equipped with a raised cot, blankets, chew toys, and plenty of treats.
With Precious Paw's staff handling basic medical treatment(s) and providing daily care, a dedicated group of volunteers provides the next level of care, making the rehabilitation of these wonderful animals possible. Our volunteers provide needed socialization for the companion animals living at the shelter, focusing on the needs of the individual animal based on his or her personality.
