Meet Zeus! A perpetual, fast-moving wiggle butt, watch his enthusiam adorably take over when he says “hello”! He’s a high energy guy and he’s got the muscles to prove it, but in addition to exercise, he will also need some help learning how to settle – he may not be the “Netflix and chill” type at home to begin with. Zeus has previously lived with a cat, but due to his size and strength introductions should be slow.

If you think this dog could be a good match for your home and would like to learn more, stop by our Boston Adoption Center. We have open adoption hours Tuesday-Sunday from 12pm-3pm – no appointment needed to speak to a staff person regarding available dogs.

Preparing your home for your new dog or puppy ahead of time can help ease the transition for your new pet and set you both up for success should there be a dog that’s a good match! To learn more about how to make the first few weeks with your new dog or puppy the most successful it can be, please visit www.mspca.org/petresources.

For more information on our adoption process, please visit https://www.mspca.org/adoption-centers/how-to-adopt/

Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they’re interested in – and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.

Calling all heroes!

We’d like to introduce a very special cat named Dolly. She is a 3 year old, and has a progressive case of FeLV – or Feline Leukemia Virus – which will shorten her lifespan, and we are hoping to find her a loving indoor-only home where she can live out her life. Despite her diagnosis, she can be social and affectionate with those she knows, once she is comfortable in her new space. Dolly would need to be the only cat in the household, or have feline friends that also have FeLV. Interested adopters should click the inquire button below to learn more and shelter staff will provide additional counseling on FeLV and answer any questions at the time of adoption.

More info on FeLV can be found here: https://veterinarypartner.vin.com/default.aspx?pid=19239&id=4951934

Gary is an adorable 3 year old Nigerian Dwarf wether. He is very shy, so would do best in a home with an experienced adopter who can handle him and help him warm up to people over time. He deserves a loving home where he can relax and learn that humans are his friends!

Goats are herd animals and need the company of other goats to be healthy and happy. We are looking for adopters who can take at least a pair of goats or have an existing herd at home that they’d like to expand. Interested adopters should have housing for their goats to include proper shelter from the elements and fencing to contain these notorious escape artists. As they say – if it can’t hold water, it can’t hold a goat!

All goats are up to date on their medical needs, but will need routine maintenance moving forward for things like hoof trims and yearly vaccines.

Interested in adding a hilarious and sweet group of goats to your home? Fill out an adoption form by clicking the “Inquire” button and a staff member will reach out to discuss!

Meet Artie! This handsome fella came to us from a home without much history known. He can take a little time to warm up and would likely do best in a quieter home. He lived with many other cats and would likely do well living with other cats!

Howdy, folks! Meet Charlie, the Lone Star legend with a bark as big as Texas itself!

This good ol’ boy may be a mystery pup from the wild West, but one thing’s for sure: he’s got swagger and a leash-walking game that’ll make you think he’s been strutting his stuff on the Texas catwalks. We have no history on how Charlie may do in a home, so his adopters will need to be patient while they allow him to decompress and adjust to his new environment.

So, if you’re looking for a new friend to add to your home, then saddle up and mosey on down during adoption open hours to meet Charlie! He’s ready to lasso your heart and wrangle his way into your home faster than you can say “yeehaw!”.

Vik is a very social young rat, who enoys hanging out on shoulders!

Rats are nocturnal, highly social and extremely intelligent animals! Due to the highly social nature of rats we prefer to match them with homes with existing rats, or to adopters looking to take home two or more rats. Rats can be food driven (and great foragers!) making them excellent animals to train. We always recommend the use of positive reinforcement training with your animals, and are happy to provide more information on this topic.

We recommend providing a safe indoor enclosure that allows the rat plenty of space to exercise. The minimum cage size should be 2’x2.5’x2’, with good ventilation (no glass enclosures) and must have a solid base. Preferably the shelter includes multiple levels, with appropriate use of linens or paper bedding and lots of rat appropriate toys. Rats should never be housed with other animals, each species should always have its own housing.

The needs of each rat are unique and if you have questions about the right type of enclosure for the rat you are interested in, please let us know in your inquiry! We are happy to provide guidance and advice.

Candie is ready to find a new home of their own! We’re not sure what these chunky pups are mixed with, but we think they will likely be on the larger side. They are all still learning the ropes and will need a patient family to teach them all the doggie basics like walking on a leash and housetraining. They could likely go to a home with another dog who wants an annoying younger sibling to be a role model too. These puppies have been through lots of transitions in their short lives and are looking for a home that can help them figure out the world in a safe and fun way!

More about Percy:

I am cuddly with people, and will tap you on the shoulder with my paws when I want attention! I play fetch! I am a playful, interactive, outgoing guy.

I will need a slow introduction to my new home and litter box. I would prefer to be the four-legged king of the castle. I have a history of fighting with a cat in my previous home, and would hiss in fear of the dog. With my personality, no other pet in the home is needed!!!

I can be skittish, and am afraid of loud noises or sudden movements. I will do best in a quiet, low-traffic home.

The shelter is open Tuesday through Sunday from noon to 4:30pm, with no appointment needed to meet available cats.

Compatibility:
Cats: No thanks!
Dogs: No thanks!
Kids: Yes, but should be cat-savvy

*Before coming to the adoption center, we ask that you have a housing unit ready, in case you end up finding an animal you’d like to adopt.
