Paws for Life Rescue is a nonprofit, all-breed dog and cat rescue operating in southeast Michigan. Run by dedicated, hardworking volunteers, Paws for Life is a shelter partner. We rescue dogs and cats from overflowing shelters in Michigan, saving two lives - the one we take and the one that needs the empty kennel space we left behind.
Speaking for those who cannot speak for themselves.



Hello, my name is Annie. I am a sweet girl who was born April 4, 2021. You may have noticed that I only have one eye, which I’m told makes me extra special and extra adorable. I was a very young kitten when I had an eye injury and it was removed. I don’t know that I am any different from any other cat. I am a bit shy in new environments. Once I get comfortable with new surroundings, I am always out and about, wanting to be part of the family (even if strangers come over).
I like to cuddle in bed, every night, with my foster parents and other cats. I love to play with different toys, especially spring toys. Spring toys are the best things ever. If I’m not playing with other foster kittens or toys, you can usually find me cuddled with another cat or kittens or laying on my foster Mom or Dad’s legs while they nap on the couch. I am a very good girl and always use the litter box. Please give me a chance!

Hi there! My name is Sir Archibald Wallace III - or - Archie. I am about 2 years old and I am a lovebug. I enjoy hot dogs, my big stuffed frog squeaky toy and snuggling on the couch. I am a smart boy who loves to learn new things and get rewarded for it - that's where the yummy hot dogs come in. My foster mom says I am the easiest dog she's ever given a bath to. I like the warm water and guess what ... hot dog treats come along with the experience, making it even better. I am doing great meeting other dogs, new human friends and even kids. I am a little shy around strangers, but as long as someone is willing to take it slow with me, I will be your best friend. I can't wait to enjoy long walks, many rounds of fetch and many squeaky toys with my new family. I am housetrained and ready to meet the love of my life. All I need now is you. Apply today!
