Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi!! I'm Rusty! I'm 12 years old but have the energy of a 12 month old. I've been a very loving companion to my family my whole life until recently when for medical reasons, they're no longer able to care for me. I love playing fetch, wrapping myself up in my favorite blanket, and cuddling with any human. Currently, I'm being fostered in a house with two dogs and two cats and we all get along well. However, i do need a lot of attention so i'd be best in a home with fewer animals. I am not neutered and my vet says it'd be too risky of an operation to go through at my age so if i'm not being watched sometimes i will try and mark corners. My foster human has gotten me some very snazzy little reusable weenie wraps so this hasn't been too much of an issue 🙂 I'm looking for my new furrever home and a new family to spend a few more loving years with!
