Shirley Castro
Data & Systems Manager
As our Lead Registered Vet Tech, Shirley is an essential part of our team, guiding and supporting us every step of the way. She ensures we stay on top of all medical requirements for the cats and dogs we care for. With her extensive knowledge and experience, Shirley is vital in guiding new and assistant vet techs through Stray Paws’ protocols. Whether supervising TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) clinics or ensuring the well-being of animals recovering from surgery, Shirley is truly one of our powerhouses.
Trap-Neuter-Return is at the core of what we do at Stray Paws, but it’s a process that requires skill and dedication. Shirley’s years of experience and unwavering commitment help us run multiple monthly TNR clinics smoothly and safely. Shirley's supervision and expertise mean that each cat receives the best care.
This year’s Behind the Pawprints campaign celebrates our fantastic staff members like Shirley, who make it all happen at Stray Paws. Thanks to their hard work, we can run successful TNR programs, pet spay/neuter clinics, wellness services, and vaccine events. You might even catch Shirley at one of our free vaccine events, where her passion for animal welfare shines.
We invite you to support Stray Paws in all we do—from TNR to free vaccine events. With your help, we can continue providing discounted and accessible services to our community, making a real difference for pets and those who love them. Thank you for being part of our journey, and we look forward to your support!
