Ah, the golden question!
At Bossy Paws Rescue, we’re looking for what every rescue dreams of:
The perfect forever family—one that meets the unique needs of the animal, provides love, stability, and snuggles on demand (treats don’t hurt either).
While we truly love our fellow humans (some of our best friends are people!), our first priority is always the animals. Every dog, cat, and occasionally mystery floof in our care deserves a safe, committed home that fits their energy level, personality, quirks, and care needs.
So whether you're a marathon runner looking for a jogging buddy, or a professional couch potato with a lap made for naps—we're looking to match you with the pet who’s just right for your lifestyle (and vice versa).
It’s not about perfection—it’s about the right fit. And when it clicks, it’s magic.
All of our kitties are indoor only unless otherwise indicated. We will sometimes assist with special medical cases for outdoor kitties that will require placement.
The average approval time is 5 to 7 days for all applications.
First off—thank you. Seriously. Just by applying, you’ve shown us that you care deeply about giving a rescue pet a loving home, and we appreciate that more than you know.
At Bossy Paws Rescue, we believe every pet deserves the right home—not just the first one. That means our adoptions are not first come, first served. We carefully review each application to find the best match for the animal’s personality, needs, and quirks (yes, even the delightfully weird ones).
Sometimes we receive multiple wonderful applications for the same pet—but in the end, we can only choose one home. Our goal is always to do what’s best for the animal in our care. It’s never personal, and not being selected doesn’t mean you’re not an amazing pet parent—it just means that particular furry goofball was a better fit elsewhere.
So if you didn’t get matched this time, please don’t be discouraged! Your future furbaby is still out there—probably judging their current food options and waiting for you to show up with better snacks.
Thank you for understanding, and for being someone who’s willing to open their heart (and couch) to a rescue animal. We hope to work with you again soon
Bossy Paws Rescue is 100% foster-based—meaning we don’t have a public facility. All of our adoptable pets are living the good life in loving foster homes while they wait for their forever families.
This cozy setup helps us get to know each animal’s unique personality, habits, and cuddle preferences. It also means we can make the best possible match between pet and adopter—because let’s face it, some of our furballs are a little picky (and we love that about them).
Meet-and-greets outside of public adoption events are by approved application only.
This keeps our fosters (and their couches) from being overwhelmed and ensures a smoother experience for everyone—especially the pets!
You can find a list of upcoming adoption events on our website. Come say hi—we love visitors, and so do the tail-waggers!
Great question! While we prioritize our local community, we do occasionally adopt out of state on a case-by-case basis. Our top priority is always finding the best possible match for each animal—not just the closest zip code.
Some of our pets are total homebodies who’d rather not travel far, while others are ready to pack their tiny suitcases and chase adventure (and squirrels) across state lines.
If you're out of state and think you're the perfect match, go ahead and apply—we’re happy to chat and see if it’s a good fit for both you and the floof in question!
