True to his `Up` namesake, Russel approaches life like a badge-earning Wilderness Explorer, bravely tackling every new toy, tunnel, and climbing opportunity with enthusiasm and joy. Russel is playful, energetic, and endlessly adventurous. He loves zooming around the room, pouncing on imaginary enemies, and recruiting his favorite adventure companion — his brother, Mr. Fredricksen — for every mission.
When he’s not exploring, he’s plotting the next big escapade (usually involving toys and snacks). Russel has been fostered with dogs and did wonderfully, proving he’s ready to earn his “I live with dogs” badge too, with proper introductions. While Russel would thrive in an active, fun-loving home, his happiest ending would be continuing his greatest adventure alongside Mr. Fredricksen — because every good explorer needs a loyal co-pilot.
Russel is currently up to date on vaccinations and flea and tick preventative, has been neutered, microchipped, and examined by our vet team.
For more information on Russel or any other animal currently residing at the Animal Rescue League of Boston, please call us at 617-426-9170. We welcome adopters from NH, RI, CT, and NY. However, we will be unable to facilitate same day adoptions due to state regulated paperwork requirements.

The Animal Rescue League of Boston is committed to matching adoptable animals with a permanent home.

We require the following as part of the adoption process:
* Adopter must be 18 years of age or older
* A current government-issued ID (no student IDs)
* Have a conversation with an ARL adoption counselor
* A photo of the cage your pet will live in, if adopting a small animal or bird
