Areas Pawsitive Karma Rescue serves

Pawsitive Karma Rescue is the voice in Central Texas for animals that truly have no where else to turn. Our focus is on “special needs” animals that are deemed “unadoptable” by the city shelter and other groups. PKR is driven by the belief in live outcomes for all animals including those of unpopular breeds or colors, those with behavioral issues or physical ailments, and feral as well as under-socialized animals.

Additional adoption info

1. To find the animal that is the best fit for you and your family, feel free to browse the available cats and dogs on our website.
2. Once you have found the right cat, kitten, dog or puppy for your family, please fill out the appropriate adoption questionnaire located on our website.
3. Shortly after you have filled out the appropriate questionnaire, a PKR representative will be in contact. We require a meet and greet with the animal you wish to adopt, a background check, and a screening process.

About Pawsitive Karma Rescue

Pawsitive Karma Rescue is the voice in Central Texas for animals that truly have no where else to turn. Our focus is on “special needs” animals that are deemed “unadoptable” by the city shelter and other groups. PKR is driven by the belief in live outcomes for all animals including those of unpopular breeds or colors, those with behavioral issues or physical ailments, and feral as well as under-socialized animals.

PKR seeks to redefine society’s outlook on feral cats in particular. We hope for people to see them as animals that never received the chance to socialize with humans but still have endearing and useful qualities. Our barn placement cats find only happy outdoor homes waiting for them and their adopters are pleased to see their animals thriving. We focus on providing a safety net for those animals that find themselves in difficult situations such as ferals that need to be relocated, feral mothers with kittens, cats with litterbox issues, and animals with behavioral problems. We also take on the challenges of socializing kittens up to six months old and finding proper and responsible placement for cats with a variety of socialization levels.

We favor a natural approach to treating and maintaining our animal’s health and prefer simple medical treatments and nutrient-dense food to those including harsh chemicals and other questionable ingredients. PKR will not adopt out any unhealthy or unaltered animals; our kitties and dogs go to their forever homes healthy.

Pawsitive Karma Rescue's adopted pets

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Austin, TX.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
