My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hi my name is Austin! I'm a snuggle bug most of the time. I don't like to be picked up, but I love to sit on your lap! I can be pretty vocal, so if you're not paying enough attention to me, I'll let you know. Sometimes I just want to be left alone, but I'll let you know that too. I use my litterbox 100% of the time. I don't mind dogs and cats as long as they aren't too hyper, so a home without young puppies or kittens is preferred. My previous owner taught me that hands are toys, but my foster mom is teaching me how to play with real toys ... sometimes I forget so a home without young kids is best. If you have a spare window and room on your bed, please come meet me! I'm neutered, vaccinated, microchipped and ready to go! Please give me a chance to be your newest family member! Adoption fee: $60. Adopt a pair: $90. Fee includes testing, deworming, vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip and 60 days of free pet insurance.

Game 1 starts at 1 p.m. sharp, so get there early to check out all the great raffles.

Adoption Process: Complete the application at www.pawsforliferescue.org. We then arrange a location, date and time for you to meet some pets. If the meeting goes well and everyone is happy, you begin the mandatory, minimum two-week adjustment period with the pet as part of your family. You will pay the non-refundable adoption fee at the start of the two-week adjustment period. This pending period allows your new dog or cat time to adjust to their new home, new people, new routine, etc., and for you to decide if it's a match and the right pet for you. At the end of two weeks (some people extend the adjustment time as needed and that's fine too), if everyone is happy, then we finalize the adoption. Feel free to email if you have any questions.
