My story

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

Meet Aster the 9-year-old cuddle bug with a youthful spirit and a heart overflowing with love! This sweet senior just returned from an incredible foster home, where she quickly made herself at home and stole everyone’s heart. Here’s what her foster family had to say:

“Aster is the ultimate snuggle companion who loves people and is highly food-motivated. She’s full of energy for her age, enjoying neighborhood walks and cozy naps on the couch. Aster loves to be where you are and loves everyone she meets- even visitors! She’s gentle, loving, and deserves the best forever home."

Aster is a gem who adores being by your side—whether it’s lounging on the couch, keeping you company in the kitchen, or curling up in bed at night. While she’s working on her leash manners at times, her sweetness and charm more than make up for it.

Aster is ready to be your loyal companion. Will you be the one to give this amazing girl the forever home she deserves? Come and meet this sweet senior girl today!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We ask potential adopters to fill out a matchmaker form. When they are ready to adopt an animal and the form and interview process indicates a good match, we have the adopter sign an adoption contract promising that the animal will receive good physical and emotional care. Fees vary and we often have adoption specials. Fees for senior pets are sponsored. Otherwise, dogs are $100, puppies $150 and up, cats are $75, kittens are $95.
