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 friends! My name is Milo and I am a super unique, 18-month-old, neutered male kitty. I am 100% white all over and I have gorgeous pale blue eyes. Surprisingly, I am neither deaf nor blind, like many animals with my coloring. I am oh so sweet and loving once we become friends, but it does take me a little bit of time to get used to new people.
My old family abandoned me so it can take a moment for me to warm up, but once I know we are friends, I paw at you and screech for more attention. Yes, you heard me - screech. When these nice volunteers came to meet me, they stopped petting me and turned around. I screeched so weirdly that the one lady thought an alarm was going off. I guess you'll never have to worry about being late for work again!
I always use the litterbox like the good boy that I am. Please give me a chance and you'll be so glad you did! Apply to meet me today!

Hi there, friends! My name is Simon and I am ready to fill your home with laughter, smiles, happiness and all things joy. I weigh about 65 lbs and I was born in January 2022. I love people. I love spending time with people. There are so many things we can do together. We can play with toys. We can take walks in the neighborhood or around the park. We can learn and train, because I'm smart, I work hard for treats and I enjoy learning new things. We can cuddle and snuggle, I am really good at it too. We can watch movies together. You can read a book to me. We can dance to your favorite song or just lounge and listen to the rain. I'm all about you and anything you want to do. I am a fairly easy-going guy, but I'm not used to being alone at home. I’m a GREAT work-from-home colleague. I get along well with other dogs of all sizes. I am naturally happy, it's my default state. All I need now is someone to love for life. I hope you apply today! You'll be so glad you did!
