Lucky Dog Animal Rescue

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue is a non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing homeless and abandoned animals, primarily dogs from high-kill shelters and owners who can no longer care for them. By working with committed volunteers, foster homes, local veterinarians, trainers, and boarding facilities, we are able to rescue hundreds of animals every year, provide them with loving temporary care, and find them well-matched, carefully screened forever homes. We also serve as a resource to our community and all pet owners by providing education and information on responsible pet ownership, including the importance of spay/neuter, positive behavior training, and good nutrition.

Meet Fergus

FERGUS NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!  This senior gal deserves the best for hopefully many years to come! Name: Fergus    Best Guess for Breed: Domestic Short Hair  Best Guess for Age: 12 years (Est. DOB: 3/6/2013)  Sex: Female Approximate Weight: 8 lbs as of 5/27/25 Coloring: Tabby with white paws   Type of Hair: Short Gets Along With: Fergus gets a bit nervous around other animals and would do best in a home as a single cat. That said, she has coexisted nicely with two resident cats in the past, but a decent integration process will be needed.  Currently Living at: Foster home in the DC area I am Looking For: A quiet home to get comfy in, share my love, and receive some pets! Hi - I'm Fergus. As a wee baby I was found in a trash bag on the side of the street. I was then adopted out and lived with my family for many years. However, they're moving and not able to take me with them. So I found myself looking for a new forever home! Can you take a chance on me and welcome me into your home?  What My Foster Says About Me: Fergus is so sweet! She is currently separated from the resident cat and living in a large bathroom, but she waits by the door for her foster to give her some pets, and once her foster sits down, all bets are off! She can be a bit hissy but there's no bite behind her bark, and once she gets comfortable, she's just excited to see you. She is a bit nervous with loud noises (aren't we all?) but has found some prime hiding spaces for when the vacuum comes out. Ultimately, she's just looking for a home that can provide her some love, playtime, serenity, and TLC. Is that home yours?  Special Considerations: Fergus has tested negative for FIV/FeLV, is up-to-date on vaccinations and an annual exam with senior bloodwork, and is spayed. She has been overgrooming and has a few missing areas of fur on her belly and legs, likely due to the stress she's experienced in the past couple of months (many changes!) TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this cat is $200, which includes the cost of routine vetting.  If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online   at bit.ly/adoptaluckycat  Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the cats we have for adoption.
