I am Looking For: My loving forever family! Hi! I'm Ben, and I am a handsome guy! I won’t ask for much- just some love, cuddles and lots of toys so I can run and play and be myself. 

What the Shelter Says About Me: The Sweetest Soul Looking for His Forever Home. Ben is the definition of the good life. This lovable boy is the epitome of sweetness, and every day spent with him is truly a blessing. As his foster mom, I can't help but fall more in love with him every single day. Ben is gentle, affectionate, and has a heart full of love to share. Ben is great with other cats and kittens—currently, he shares his space with a tiny 11-week-old foster kitten, and he’s the best roommate! He’s playful, yet calm, and always makes sure to be a gentle companion. Ben is looking for a forever home where he can continue to shine, ideally with a cozy window seat where he can watch the world go by. His current favorite pastime is gazing out the office window at the birds and ducks—he’s a bit of a nature lover! Ben’s quiet demeanor makes him the perfect companion for those who appreciate a calm and peaceful presence. He’s not one to make a lot of noise, but when he wants attention, he’ll gently nudge you or curl up right next to you, just to remind you that love is his language. He has a soft, whisper-like meow that is absolutely endearing. Ben is not only affectionate but also playful. He loves engaging with his toys and his foster sister, always finding joy in the simple things. Even when I have to work, Ben finds a way to stay close—whether it's laying across my arms or curling up on my desk, he just wants to be near his people. His sweet, quiet nature and constant need to show affection make him a one-of-a-kind companion. If you’re looking for a gentle, loving friend to add to your family this holiday season, Ben is your boy. He’s ready to find his furever home, where he can continue to share his love and fill your heart with warmth.

What my Foster Says About Me: Coming soon!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
