This kitty`s foster reports: `We found Bubo in a parking lot a couple of months ago hiding in a little bush. She seems to be about a year or two old and we asked around to try to find out if she had an owner but so far haven`t found anyone. We named her Bubo because she reminded us of the owl named Bubo from Clash of the Titans, especially the face she makes when she`s staring at us and her eyes open really wide, but we also call her Booboo.
She`s pretty friendly and likes to run around and play with toys, but she`s scared of other cats and probably dogs too, so we`re hoping to find her a forever parent/home who can accommodate her and don`t have another cat or dog.
Lately we`ve been learning that she loves to try different kinds of cat treats and loves company and attention, and to be scratched and for people to play with her. Sometimes she likes to be held and carried around the house, and gives little kisses to say hello. She is also pretty well-behaved when she is left alone. She loves her blue cat carrier and often goes to sleep in it. She likes to watch TV too and take naps near people. She also plays the piano!`

Our shelter has more than 500 available cats and dogs every day! For pets at the shelter: Adoptions must be completed in-person at the shelter. AAC is open for adoption walk-ins every day from 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. A shelter pet’s availability can change at any time, so we recommend choosing a few favorites. For pets in foster: Go to www.AustinAnimalCenter.org to find the pet's profile and click that pet's pink “Adopt Me” button. This will prompt you to complete an adoption questionnaire. Submitting an application does not hold the animal for you.

$80 dogs 6 months to 6 years, 30 lbs and up
$100 dogs under 30 lbs and/or under 6 months
