PAWS subsidiary Mesa Pharmacy executes marketing agreement

SHOWS STRONG SALES IN JANUARY AND CONTINUED GROWTH IN FEBRUARY.

IRVINE, CA, Feb. 19, 2014 /CNW/ - The PAWS Pet Company, Inc. (OTCQB:PAWS), is pleased to announce that Mesa Pharmacy Inc. ("Mesa") has executed a marketing agreement with Trestles Pain Specialists LLC of San Juan Capistrano, California to expand sales within California and, eventually, in other states.  Physician groups and industrial medical clinics in the central valley of California and other new locations throughout California will now be using the alternative transdermal medications Mesa compounds.

As controlled narcotic medications become more problematic and laws continue to limit options for physicians to control pain, other alternatives are being considered. Our non-narcotic trans-dermal formulations for pain management are becoming more popular for managing pain suffered by the injured worker.  Mesa is increasing its staff and preparing for a surge in orders that is already underway.

"We are anticipating continued increases in revenues this spring," stated Edward Kurtz Chief Operating Officer of Mesa Pharmacy.  He added "Our capacity expands far beyond what we are doing now and we expect to continue a strong growth pattern over the next couple of years. Preliminary unaudited gross revenue numbers for January 2014 were more than $4,000,000 and it appears that revenues for February will be substantially higher than January."
