Description:
Hi, I'm Avery! I am in rescue now, but had been at a rural, high kill shelter. While I was there, people were looking at me sadly and whispering to each other that my "time was almost up". It really didn't sound good! Then one day, someone appeared with a big smile on their face and said I was going in to "rescue". I wasn't sure what that meant, but the person was really happy to tell me, so I knew it was a good thing. MARS got me on the next truck in to town, and now I've settled in to my foster home. When I first arrived I had what they called "mange". Fortunately it was the non-contagious type, and I was just able to get some medicine and now I'm feeling better. Now I look much better than when I had my pictures taken too! My coat is coming back in nicely. Oh, I almost forgot to mention...the day I came in to rescue, there were these two cute little girls there hanging out and smiling and pointing at me. The girls took me in to a room to get my pictures taken, then...ya know what? I got to go home with those very same little girls! I was so excited! They really love me. And, I have a furry foster brother to hang out with too! It's been great! So, now I'm all good to go, and settled in at my foster home. Now I get to begin the search for my forever home. Can it be with you? I'd love you forever! Love, Avery Please feel free to fill out an Adoption application on our main website, www.midwestanimalrescue.org, by clicking on the Form/Applications link under Website Features. Thank You! When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care. Long Distance Adoptions: Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption. We require a meet of the pet prior to adoption, which means coming to MARS. We do not transport to potential adopters. How to learn more about a pet: Complete the application (click on the button above) to start our process for adopting or fostering a MARS Pet. Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks. Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance. Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
