My story

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

MEET LESTER! High Energy!

This vocal guy is a doll who loves pets and just being around people. Lester has even been known to jump onto a lap or two. We get the impression that Lester will not be the type who will be ok left alone all day and would probably enjoy living with someone who has a hybrid work scedule. Based on observations from his short stay in a home, Lester is extremely food oriented. It would be great if he had a new person who could work with him on his constant search for food through clicker training, food puzzles and slow feeders. Lester would strongly benefit from a regular feeding schedule so he can learn to understand that he doesn`t have to constantly relive his time on the streets searching for his next meal. Also based on his food orientation, Lester should probably be the only pet in his new home since sharing is not his super power! If you have an active home or are home a lot and are interested in meeting Lester, please come to the Boston location and speak with an adoption specialist.


Lester is currently up to date on all vaccinations, has been neutered, microchipped and been seen by our vet team.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The Animal Rescue League of Boston is committed to matching adoptable animals with a permanent home. Our conversation-based, application-free adoption process is designed so that the needs of both the animal and the adopter are understood and compatible with one another. 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
