Beep Beep!

Hey there, the name’s Roadrunner! It’s a real minefield out there in the world and living on the streets has taught me some important survival tips, like how to move fast, eat faster, and make a strong impression on everyone I come across. My experiences have left me a real independent boy, though that’s not to say I don’t enjoy a good scratch too – my favourite spot in right behind the ear! I’m a real sucker for tasty treats and will easily fall under the charm of anyone who delivers me food, especially if there’s plenty of it!

My friends here at the shelter say I’m a bit wily and because of this, I’m in need of someone special for my future family. As much as I adore attention, I do believe in having too much of a good thing and can sometimes become overstimulated, especially when being held. I would feel much more comfortable in a household with only one or two adults who understand my needs and will show me both patience and love while I find my place in the home. We Roadrunners tend to be loners by nature too and I’m no exception, as I much prefer the company of people over my own kind.

No complex trap needing to get me – I’ll be right here waiting for you to fall in love!

While I'm awaiting my forever home, I'm being fed Royal Canin, who are generous partners of AWLQ!

Please Note:

Please visit our Animal Rehoming Centres during opening hours to meet our animals and adopt. No appointment is needed. For select animals, we will require an email application. Where this is the case, instructions will be specified on the animal's profile.

This website is live and updates frequently. To check if an animal is available, please check their adoption profile. If it is active and hasn't been marked as 'adopted', the animal is still here.

Please be aware there is a chance that by the time you arrive at our location, the animal you have an interest in might have been adopted, or another party might be going through the adoption process.
