I'm Nikita. I'm a bit shy at first, but once you get to know me, you'll see I'm full of funny antics that will make you laugh. I enjoy the simple things like a gentle pat, a quiet corner, and a soft bed. Cuddling is my favorite pastime, and I promise to be your most loyal and loving companion. I may be a little reserved, but that's just because I'm waiting for the right person to share my heart with. Adopting me means having a friend who will bring joy and laughter into your life. I promise, I'll be worth it! Female/Spayed Retriever, Labrador/Mix 3 years 33lbs

Come get your kitten today!😺 As of this morning we have 36 kittens 3 months and younger looking for loving homes.❤️🏡😸

Hey there, I'm Artie! My life is like a comic book. Once, I was an everyday pup, until a radioactive squirrel bit me. Now, I'm SquirrelDog, with the power of extreme curiosity and cuddliness! My superpowers led me to this shelter, where I'm on a mission to spread joy. I might be goofy, but that's part of my charm. Every superhero needs a sidekick, and that's where you come in. Together, we can conquer the world, or at least the park. Adopt me and let's start our adventure. You bring the snacks, I'll bring the fun! Male/Neutered German Shepherd/Mix 3 years 28lbs

Hi there, I'm Ava! I'm a pretty smart gal, you know. I can sit, stay, and fetch with the best of them. I've got a heart full of love and a tail that won't stop wagging. Sure, I've got heartworm, but that's just a bump in the road. I'm as playful as a pup and as loyal as they come. I love a good game of fetch, but I'm also content to just sit by your side. I'm looking for a forever home where I can share all the love I've got to give. Why should you adopt me? Well, because I'm Ava. I'm friendly, smart, playful, and loyal. I'm not just looking for a home, I'm looking for a family. And I promise, I'll be the best friend you've ever had. Shepherd/Mix 6 years 72lbs

Foster Friday! Today we are sharing Thursday's story, soon to be Bonnie. Thursday came to AWA with a severely ruptured eye which required surgical removal. Thursday was placed with one of AWA's most experienced fosters, along with her foster "assistant" and former foster "fail" Mitzi. Thursday won the hearts of both her foster mom and Mitzi and is being adopted to help other fosters on their journey to their happy homes! AWA owes so much to our foster families for helping save the lives of so many precious kittens and pups each year! 🚨🚨Not ready to adopt but want to help homeless pets? The AWA Kitten Army is recruiting volunteer “soldiers” of all skill levels who are ready, willing, and able to help us care for kittens ranging from days to months old. We provide the training and resources to get you started fostering bottle baby kittens. 🐱🐱🐱 We have a weekly orientation where we'd love to answer your questions and start working together to save lives! ❤ Contact us to learn more about our foster program: [email protected] #awa #awanj #animalwelfareassociation #awa75 #adoptapet #adoptdontshop #animalrescue #animalrights #animalwelfare #dogrescue #animalshelter #homelessdog #camdencountynj #petfriendly #shelterdogs #homelesspets #shelterkittens #shelteranimals #shelterdogsofinstagram #sheltercats #animallovers #fyp #fosterdog #fostercare #fosterfail #fostersneeded #fosterkittens #fosterssavelives #fosteringsaveslives #fosterkittensofinstagram

Hiya, I'm Nettles! So, how'd I end up here? Well, it's a laugh, really. You see, I was chasing my tail (as one does), got dizzy, and ended up in a delivery truck bound for the local doggie day spa. After a hilarious mix-up involving a mop, a rubber duck, and a very confused janitor, I found myself here! I'm a quick learner, love to play, and boy, do I have energy! Agility course? Piece of cake! Now, why should you adopt me? I'll keep you laughing, on your toes, and provide endless tail-chasing tales!
