Sponsor a Pet
Sponsoring a pet at the Animal Welfare Association makes a true impact in saving lives
With a $75 gift, you can put a furry face to your donation by being a part of AWA’s Pet Sponsorship program. Your 30-day sponsorship gives additional support to a select group of animals that need some extra help. These adoptable pets may already have a higher-than-average length of stay at AWA, they may be older, or have health or behavior challenges that make it more difficult to find their forever home.
Sponsor a pet and be a champion to homeless animals until they find their forever home!
If you are unable to sponsor an animal through our Pet Sponsorship program, we ask that you please share their story to help them find a loving home.
How It Works
- Choose an animal from the lists below
- Click “Sponsor Me” and fill out information (make sure to include which pet you’d like to sponsor!)
- Checkout and save a life!
$75 receives 30-day sponsorship of an AWA animal. If animal is adopted during sponsorship, funds will be added to general operating fund to help other pets in AWA’s care.
Choose a Pet In Need
The animals available in our Pet Sponsorship program are the most in need. They may be having a difficult time being adopted due to age, breed, or size, or have medical or behavioral challenges making it harder for them to find homes.
Choose the dog, cat, or small animal that you would like to sponsor from our available sponsorship list. If that pet is adopted during your month of sponsorship, your gift will still help other needy pets by going into AWA’s general operating fund.
Visit our adoptions pages to find more pictures and learn more about the animals available for sponsorship at AWA.
Dogs
Our dogs available for sponsorship will change as more come in and others are adopted out. For more pictures and information of these pups, visit our dog adoption page to help choose the dog you’d like to sponsor.
Autumn
I'm Autumn! I love to earn treats by being a good listener. It's because I love to have fun with my humans. One day I know I'll have a friend to eat treats with forever.
Elliot
I'm Elliott and I love to play as much as I love treats! I've been working a lot on my puppy habits to help adopters want to take me home, but I'm only 8 months old so I'm doing my best. Once I find a new best friend that will help me as I grow up I'll be the happiest boy in the world.
Mason
I'm Mason! I was a very lonely pup when I came to AWA, but since going into foster care I've really been opening up! I love to hang out and watch tv with my friends, and they say I'm very smart learning new tricks! When somebody adopts me they're in for a real treat!
Mayberry
I'm Ms. Mayberry! I came to AWA very nervous and stressed, so an amazing foster took me in and I'm having a great time opening up! Whenever I get a home to settle into I'll be the happiest pup!
Diana
Diana, here. I can be a very easy going gal, even if I was named after a princess. I'm 7 years old, which has made it harder for me to get adopted, but I have plenty of great years ahead of me to have fun with a new family who gives me a chance!
Cats
Our cats available for sponsorship will change as more come in and others are adopted out. For more pictures and information of these friendly felines, visit our cat adoption page to help choose the cat you’d like to sponsor.
Dunkaroo
Are you looking for a fun-loving, energetic cat? One that's active, but also knows when to simmer down and snuggle? Then you've come to the right guy; me, Dunkaroo! I'm a 4 year old who loves to eat, play, and I'm also affectionate, so honestly I'm the total package! I also like other cats as I currently live in the community cat room with some of my other friends, where Haribo is my best friend! You can always find us playing or snuggling together

Pyra
Hi there, I'm Pyra and I'd really like to be your best friend! Although I'm not a kitten anymore at 11 years old, I can still be the perfect companion. I'm a little shy, but it doesn't take very long for me to come out of my shell and greet you— and I'll make biscuits while doing so, so let's chat!
Puddy
Hello, my name is Puddy and I'm a big bundle of energy! At only 7 months old, I'm still full of that kitten-like wonder and would do well in a home that can keep me active and stimulated; I love to play! I'm also FIV+, which means that my immune system has to work harder, but I can live a completely normal life just like any other cat!

Oswald
They say the eyes are the window to the soul and that's why I always keep eye contact, so that you'll know that when you look into mine, you'll see your new best friend! I'm Oswald and I'm a very affectionate 6 year old. I'm always one of the first cats to greet others when they walk in and yet I haven't had many visitors, so why don't we change that?
