With torn up, worn out beds for the animals at the shelter, PAWS is asking the commu- nity to help, if possible, with the purchase of new beds for the animals. "The floors are heated, and we give them blankets," Dar- rell Adams, Shelter Manag- er, said. "The beds get the an- imals up off the floor, which is nice for them. We are short on beds, and they tear them up eventually. We are looking for the Kuranda brand of beds, because they are a little more sturdy. We can use them for both cats and dogs to get them off the floor when they are lay- ing down." The cost of a Kuranda brand bed ranges in cost from $ 69 to $ 84, for dogs, and the cost is approximately $40 for the Ku- randa cat beds. "People can go to our Face- book page (Pike County PAWS) and it gives the link or you can visit the Kuran- da website at https://shel- terbeds.org/index.php/do- nate/287560 for a direct link to our shelter," Adams said. According to the Kuran- da website, quality rest re- duces stress in adoptable pets. When pets sleep better, they are healthier and happi- er, which makes them more adoptable. PAWS Pet Adoption Cen- ter is a non-profit, no kill ani- mal shelter for abandoned and homeless animals. PAWS pro- vides medical needs and daily care for animals in the shelter. The individuals who volunteer their time to PAWS attempt to spend concentrated time with the animals and to provide them with love and affection. PAWS is run strictly by vol- unteers and has no paid staff or administration. PAWS is a limited access shelter which means we take in animals on a space available basis. Some other supplies the shelter needs according to Ad- ams, are cat trees, monetary donations due to the many veterinarian bills, and clean- ing supplies, such as bleach. Cat Chow, Kitten Chow and Puppy Chow are also needed. "We need to keep with Puri- na brands due to the sensitiv- ity of the animals if you keep switching their food," Adams said. "The shelter also needs Arm & Hammer Naturals Cat Litter and Freshner." The shelter is looking to get at least 15 new beds to re- place the worn out ones they are currently using. "Any help we could get would be great- ly appreciated," Adams said. Darrell Adams, Pike County PAWS Animal Shelter Director, sits with an eight week-old puppy at the shelter, on one of the very worn out beds the shelter would like to replace. PAWS is looking to get at least 15 new beds to replace the worn out ones they are currently using. "Any help we could get would be greatly appreciat- ed," Adams said.

Free invasive plant survey offered By Kaila Knies, Regional Specialist State of Indiana Coopera- tive Invasives Management has worked alongside the US - DA Natural Resources Con- servation Service to combat invasive plants and raise pub- lic awareness of the devasta- tion caused by these non-na- tive pests. It became clear that the problem of invasives must be addressed at the local lev- el through local people using local resources. To coordinate efforts, SICIM and the NRCS signed an agreement to devel- op local Cooperative Invasive Species Management Areas throughout Indiana. SICIM then created the Indiana In- vasives Initiative (III) project to implement the agreement. Through the III project, a team of five regional special- ists employed by SICIM ac- tively work at the county level with local conservation agen- cies to develop new CISMAs and provide technical assis- tance to landowners. Included in this technical assistance to landowners is free invasive plant surveys. Many landowners have no- ticed that non-native invasive plant species are overtaking their lands, crowding out na- tive plants, and making it dif- ficult for wildlife to thrive. The good news is that you do not have to face these bat- tles alone. Anyone who owns or manages land will have to deal with these plants. The re- gional specialist for your ar- ea with come to your proper- ty and identify invasive plant species, write a brush man- agement plan, and give you in- formation on how to best con- trol the invasive species spe- cific to your property. Kaila Knies, the Region- al Specialist serving Clark, Crawford, Floyd, Gibson, Harrison, Jackson, Law- rence, Orange, Perry, Pike, Posey, Scott, Spencer, Vander- burgh, Washington and War- rick counties is now starting to book landowner surveys for 2022. All social distancing protocols will be followed. If you would like to schedule a survey, contact Kaila Knies by email at kaila@sicim.info.
