My story

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

Well hi there! What's your favorite card game? I bet it's blackjack, right? Well, that's me!! I don't know that I'm much of a gambler myself, but I am ready to lay down all of my cards in the hopes that it will win me one forever home. Are you willing to take that bet??

I arrived at the shelter after having lived on the streets alone for some time. I was finally found living underneath a house and the people there brought me to MaxFund. I'm told that being here is my best shot to find a family of my very own that will love me forever. I am bit of a shy guy, but I am quite friendly and I do most appreciate being petted and paid attention to. I'm gentle and like to play. I am not certain how I feel about other animals, but I think I will be happy to give them a chance if they are friendly and nice to me. I have a lovely black coat and deep, golden eyes too. I'm sure I'll charm you right off of your feet.

Do make a quick change of plans and hurry on over to the shelter to meet me. Card games aside, I am a prize that you will definitely want to win!

More about this shelter

The MaxFund is a non-profit organization that was established in May of 1988 to provide medical care for injured pets with no known owners, and to seek out new homes for these animals once they have recovered. The MaxFund is a no-kill dog and cat shelter. MaxFund assists hundreds of people and animals each year by trying to make the correct match between owner and pet. MaxFund adopts our animals to Colorado residents only.

The MaxFund is a TRUE no-kill shelter. There is no pre-sorting of animals into "adoptable" and "non-adoptable" categories, discarding the so-called "unadoptable." The MaxFund takes every animal it has the space for. EVERY animal is kept until its owner is found or it is placed in a new adoptive home.
