Tipton County Paws and Claws is a growing group of volunteers that are dedicated to improving conditions at the Tipton County Animal Shelter. We celebrated our first anniversary on Aug. 29, 2013! So far we have been able to implement a vaccination program, a spay/neuter program, a feral cat program, a transportation program, a dog walking program, and we're working on so much more! Educational programs, community awareness, and animal advocacy are things we're working on.
We welcome rescues and cross posters to share photos and ask for foster homes for animals you are interested in.
We welcome and appreciate all donations, which go toward things such as vaccinations, de-wormer, spay/neuter, feral cats, transportation, and anything else we can do to help the animals at the shelter live healthy lives until they find their way to furever homes!

Tipton County Paws & Claws is located in Tipton County, Tn., just north of Memphis, Tn. We coordinate with rescue groups mainly in the South & the Northeast to pull animals from the Tipton County Animal Shelter in Brighton, Tn. However, we're willing to work with any legitimate rescue group to save the lives of the animals in this high kill shelter.
Additional adoption info
As an animal advocacy group, we connect shelter animals with our partner rescue groups, and the potential adopter with the rescue group who has committed to that pet.
Each rescue group that we partner with has a different set of adoption fees, rules, regulations, and required contracts. As a general rule, all will require references and a home visit.
Please give us a minimum of 48 hours to respond to your inquiry, although we will try to respond even sooner! We will always make every effort to respond to any and all inquiries in a timely manner.
