Trust & Credibility​

At Cozy Paws & Tails, trust matters just as much as compassion.

We know how important it is to feel confident about where you’re shopping, who you’re supporting, and how your money is being used — especially when animals are involved. This page exists to be clear, honest, and transparent about who we are and how we operate.

🐾 Who We Are

Cozy Paws & Tails is a small, independently run, purpose-driven brand created by an animal lover with a deep respect for rescue pets and the people who care for them.

We are not a large corporation, a dropshipping warehouse, or a faceless brand. Every page, product, and project is built with intention, care, and a genuine love for animals.

🤍 Our Commitment to Rescue

Supporting rescue animals is a core part of our mission.

  • 20% of earnings are set aside to support animal rescue efforts

  • Contributions go to selected nonprofits such as the ASPCA and local shelters in the Finger Lakes region

  • Donations are made directly to the organizations listed

While Cozy Paws & Tails is not a nonprofit, giving back is woven into how we operate and grow.

🔍 Transparency & Honesty

We believe in being upfront about what we do — and what we don’t.

  • We do not claim to save animals directly

  • We support rescue through donations, storytelling, creative advocacy, and community awareness

  • Supported organizations may vary based on need and availability

  • Any donation links shared on our site direct you to the organization itself

Our goal is to support responsibly, without exaggeration or misleading claims.

🛍️ Shopping With Confidence

When you shop with Cozy Paws & Tails, you can expect:

  • Clear product descriptions

  • Secure checkout through trusted platforms

  • Transparent policies listed in our footer

  • Honest communication

We strive to make your experience cozy, safe, and stress-free.

🖨️ How We Use Print-On-Demand (POD)

At Cozy Paws & Tails, many of our products are created using Print-On-Demand (POD) services. This means that each item — whether it’s apparel, stickers, or accessories — is made individually after an order is placed, rather than sitting in a warehouse collecting dust.

Here’s why we choose POD:

​

  • Minimizes Waste: Products are only made when someone orders, which reduces overproduction and environmental impact.

  • Keeps Costs Accessible: POD allows us to create high-quality, custom designs without huge upfront inventory costs.

  • Ensures Quality & Freshness: Every product is crafted specifically for the buyer, so it’s fresh, new, and carefully handled.

  • Supports Our Mission: Using POD helps us keep 20% of proceeds available to support animal rescues, rather than tying up funds in large inventories.

​

By using POD, we can focus on creativity, rescue support, and community impact, while making sure every purchase you make has purpose — both for you and for the animals we support.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 Community-Centered, Not Transaction-Driven

This platform is built around community, not pressure.

  • We welcome shared rescue stories

  • We encourage compassionate adoption conversations

  • We value respectful dialogue and kindness

You never need to buy something to be part of this space.
