Qatar Animal Welfare Society- QAWS www.qaws.org
In May 2003 it became apparent that there was a desperate need for an animal rescue shelter in Doha, Qatar. Until this time there were only a small number of animal loving people trying to cope and help wherever and however they could. A local boarding kennels had opened for business and the first weekend they opened their doors they saw the beginning of the animal rescue society. At that stage they were taking in a few dogs and cats whenever space permitted and managing to provide them with care, food and shelter. In those early stages it was clear that there were people willing to take in and adopt the animals in their care.From this moment on we saw the formation of Q.A.W.S, Qatar Animal Welfare Society.Qatar Animal Welfare Society is entirely dependant upon the gestures of good-will and community-driven support.
