Stray Cafe
by Take Paws Rescue
The Stray Cafè is located at 2730 Banks St. A new way of saving homeless dogs in New Orleans.
​
Take Paws Rescue pulls dogs from stressful, crowded shelters and puts them into foster homes where they socialize, relax and
become themselves again.
​
The problem is there are never enough foster homes!
​
Our Stray Café offers a calm and cozy space for our rescue pups to interact, play, and snuggle with guests and potential adopters.
It is also a place to sleep, eat and be loved until adoption.
​
The Need
Louisiana animal shelters are over-crowded.
They need community help!
The ASPCA estimates that 1.2 million dogs are euthanized in shelters every year for lack of space, resources, and adoptive homes.
​
Our Stray Café provides a space to introduce dogs, from puppies to senior and special needs, to potential adopters, and match them with wonderful forever families.
​​
Visitors who cannot or are not ready to adopt but love dogs have a chance to spend quality time with four-pawed friends.
How To Help
Take Paws Rescue is a 501c3 nonprofit, meaning your support not only helps the dogs but it is also tax deductible!
​
Your donation will allow us to save more lives and offer fun and a place to snuggle for both dogs and humans.
​
We also desperately need volunteers to help us with this project and the residents of the Stray Cafe!
