Best mustaches of all time! Tom Selleck, Burt Reynolds, Kurt Russell, and Sam Elliot--they all had it going on! But Steve seriously takes the prize.

Steve is looking for his forever home. He is estimated to be 3-4 years old. He's a very COOL cat! He loves to hang out and doesn't get too worked up about anything. He loves everyone. We are pretty sure that he would get along well with another friendly cat or a cat-friendly dog. It’s hard to imagine Steve not getting along with anyone.

Steve is FIV positive--but otherwise, a very healthy boy! We encourage anyone who might be interested in Steve to do some research about FIV and talk to your veterinarian. FIV is NOT a death sentence. Many FIV positive kitties live long, wonderful lives. There has been a lot of research done over the years on FIV with encouraging findings! We ourselves at Lucky Paws Rescue have been the parents of FIV kitties, too.

And we aren't kidding...Steve is SO COOL!!!

If you are interested in adopting Steve, please submit an application with us here:

Another urgent need...for Benji & Tucker !!!!!!!!!

Their person has passed away, leaving Benji & Tucker in their home alone. A neighbor has been going over to feed them, but this has come to the point they need to be removed, as the home will have the electricity shut off very soon.

Benji & Tucker get along well with each other, but they are not so bonded that they can't be separated. The important thing is that they get a new home immediately. Both boys are wonderful dogs with sweet temperaments.

Tucker is a 7–8-year-old Shepherd/Lab mix with a wonderfully laid-back and easygoing personality.

Benji is about 4–5 years old and has the classic Boxer personality — quirky, funny, and full of character.

Both boys are a bit on the chunky side and could stand to lose a little weight, which shouldn't be too hard as they both love to get out and move around!

Tucker and Benji are dog friendly, but because we don't know how Tucker does with cats and Benji has a definite prey drive toward small, fast-moving critters, we would be looking carefully at the individual home and its pets to make sure everyone is set up for success.

If you can foster or adopt these boys, PLEASE submit an application with us ASAP. We really do not have much time to find them a safe place.

EDIT: Transport was found!! Thank you!!

Can you help meowt with transport?

Good morning everyone! This beautiful bonded pair of sisters is needing a ride either later today or sometime tomorrow, from Olympia to Bonny Lake area! Is there anyone that could help us out?

Also, they are still looking for their forever home together! They are just over a year old, they are beautiful, sweet, friendly kitties, who, shockingly, have not been adopted yet! We have posted them multiple times, and we know times are tough out there, but if you are looking for a great bonded pair of cats, here they are! They are headed to a new foster home today.

Please let us know if you can help Transport, and if you are interested in adopting them, please submit an application here!

URGENT SOS! DOGS IN NEED! A foster is needed for Bridget by Wednesday, October 14! Jacob needs a new home ASAP due to another dog in the home attacking him.

We don't put out posts like this lightly.

We have TWO very good dogs who, through absolutely no fault of their own, are in urgent need of a safe place to land. 💔

Info for each dog can be found by tapping the photos.

Their lives are changing because of circumstances they did not cause, and right now, we need to find people who are willing to open their hearts — and their homes — to them.

Maybe one of these babies will speak to you. ❤️

Maybe you know someone who has been waiting for exactly the right dog.

Maybe you can't take one yourself, but you can share this post and help us reach the person who can.

Please take a look at these two deserving dogs. Read their stories. Look into their eyes. Get to know who they are. And if one of them feels like the dog you've been waiting for, please reach out.

🏡 Fosters are desperately needed.
❤️ Adopters are desperately needed.
📣 And shares are desperately needed.

We don't know where their perfect person is yet.

But we know they're out there.

And we need your help finding them.

These dogs didn't do anything wrong. They simply need someone to say:

“I've got you. You're safe now.” 🐾❤️

Please don't scroll past without sharing. One share could be the one that changes everything for one of these dogs.

🙏 PLEASE SHARE. PLEASE HELP. PLEASE HELP US FIND THESE TWO DOGS A PLACE TO LAND.

🚨🐾 TWO DOGS. TWO STORIES.

Somewhere out there is the person who can change one of these dogs' lives.

Let's help them find each other. ❤️🐾

If you are interested in Jacob or Bridgette, PLEASE contact us at Lucky Paws Rescue by completing this contact form:

🐾🚗 TRANSPORT HELP NEEDED! 🚗🐾

We’re looking for someone who might be able to help us transport pet food from the southern part of Auburn to the Olympia area, hopefully today or tomorrow.

This would be a huge help to Lucky Paws Rescue and the animals depending on us. ❤️🐶🐱

If you’re heading from Auburn toward Olympia and have room in your vehicle to help bring the food down, we would be so incredibly grateful!

🙏 If you can help, please send us a message.

Even a simple transport may make a big difference for the animals in our care. 🐾❤️

Thank you so much for always helping us help them! 💗

Bear needs a magical miracle by Friday, October 2.

Bear is a healthy, neutered, 7-year-old Labrador who loves other dogs (all sizes), cats, and all humans - especially kids. He is well-mannered with a happy, loving temperament that the Labradors are well known for.

He has energy (like a true lab) and loves to run, hike, and play in the water. He also loves to just hang out in the house with his family. He knows manners and even some tricks.

Bears only "issue" is that he has severe separation anxiety. He needs a home where people are home, or people he can go to work with, etc. He would benefit greatly by having another friendly dog pal. Medication has helped when left alone--so there could possibly be more progress made. Crating is not an option as he has broken out of them.

His past likely explains his anxiety. As a young dog, he was left behind by his owner in an apartment. Someone else took him in, who was not able to keep him long term--so he went to another home, and then another. The home he is currently in took him in before the birth of a grandchild that now lives in the home, with all intentions to keep him forever. The grandchild is deathly allergic to him, to the point that the child has had an anaphylaxis attack.

The family has been trying for many months to rehome him on their own to a safe home. The shelter is absolutely not a good environment for this boy. The family will be forced to make a difficult decision

We are asking all of you to help spread the word about Bear, or if you love sweet goofy labs with the ability to work with his separation anxiety, to please consider Bear.

If you are interested in Bear, PLEASE contact us at Lucky Paws Rescue by completing this contact form:

🐾💗 SOME STORIES ARE HARDER TO WRITE THAN OTHERS. 💗🐾

Because behind every photo is a little face that is waiting.

Waiting for someone to notice them.

Waiting for someone to choose them.

Waiting for the day they finally get to stop wondering what comes next.

At Lucky Paws Rescue, we have several wonderful cats who are still waiting for that moment.

Some came from difficult beginnings.

Some were born outside.

Some were overlooked.

Some simply haven't found the person who realizes that their missing piece might be two cats instead of one. 🐱🐱❤️

And sometimes…

the perfect family might have room for three. 🥹🐾

🐾 THEY HAVE EACH OTHER. NOW THEY NEED YOU.

One of the hardest things we face in rescue is finding homes for bonded pairs and groups of cats.

We know that asking someone to adopt two cats can feel like a big commitment.

But look at what you get:

❤️ Two little faces waiting for you

🐾 Two sets of paws racing through the house

😻 Twice the purrs

😂 Twice the personalities

💗 A built-in best friend

🏡 And the incredible feeling of knowing you didn't just save one life — you kept two lives together.

And sometimes, you don't even have to choose between two.

Because we also have three very special cats who have become a little family in foster care.

Check out each photo for their individual full bio's.

💗 ROXY & FRANNIE

THE PERFECT PAIR OF SISTERS! 💗🐾

If you’ve been dreaming of adding two amazing cats to your family, you really don’t need to look any further.

Roxy and Frannie are right here, waiting for you! 🥰

These beautiful sisters are about 1 year old, fully vetted, and absolutely wonderful girls. They are the kind of cats who bring a little bit of everything you could hope for into a home.

💕 The biggest snugglers

💕 Loving with their people

💕 Playful and full of personality

💕 Cat-friendly

💕 Dog-friendly

💕 People-friendly

They truly are the best-rounded girls.

Whether they're curled up together getting cozy, grooming each other, following their people around, or chasing toys and entertaining everyone with their antics, these two will keep you smiling. 🐱🐱💗

And the sweetest part?

They have each other. ❤️

They are sisters who have grown up together, and we would love to see them continue their lives side by side.

If you're looking for two loving, playful, affectionate girls who will keep you laughing and fill your home with love, Roxy and Frannie may be exactly who you've been waiting for.

🐾 They just need YOU. 🐾

Roxy & Frannie are waiting for their forever family. Could that be you? ❤️

💗 LEELEE & BLUEBELL

Two sisters with two very different personalities — and a beautiful bond.

Bluebell loves attention and being held.

LeeLee is the mischievous one who will keep you laughing.

Different personalities. One special connection.

They are happiest when they have each other. 🐱🐱❤️

💗 TAFFY & GUMBALL

Approximately 2-year-old siblings who are fully vetted, happy, healthy, and ready for their next chapter.

Gumball is the fun-loving boy who loves having a buddy — including his little Terrier mix friend!

The two have been known to play TAG through the house, racing after each other and keeping everyone entertained. 😂🐾

Taffy is an incredibly sweet girl who may need a little time to warm up. Once she feels safe, she opens her heart and shows you just how loving she really is.

These two don't need to be rushed.

They need someone patient.

Someone who will let them decompress.

Someone who understands that trust takes time.

And once they feel safe?

That's when you get to see the magic. ❤️

Their ideal home is calm, laid-back, without small children, and willing to let them settle in at their own pace.

🌟 LUKE & LEIA

Their story sounds like it belongs in a movie.

Their mama, Padme, was living outside when she gave birth to these babies.

And what day did they arrive?

May 4th. 🌟

Yes… May the 4th.

Thankfully, Padme was rescued, too, and Luke and Leia were raised in an amazing foster home where they learned that people can be kind and homes can be safe.

Now approximately 24 weeks old, these two are:

❤️ Healthy
❤️ Happy
❤️ Social
❤️ Friendly
❤️ Great with other kitties
❤️ Good with cat-friendly dogs
❤️ Fully vetted

But most importantly…

🐱🐱 LUKE & LEIA ARE BONDED.

They follow each other everywhere.

They play together.

They explore together.

They nap together.

They grew up together.

So they will be adopted together.

Their mama has already found her forever home.

Now it's Luke and Leia's turn.

May the forever home be with them. 🌟❤️

💗 SUKI & CLOE

Sometimes you don't choose your best friend.

Sometimes they just find you.

Suki is an approximately 3-year-old handsome tabby boy.

Cloe is an approximately 2-year-old beautiful white-and-tabby girl.

Both are fully vetted.

And somewhere along the way, these two found each other.

Now they want to spend the rest of their lives together.

Suki and Cloe may take a little time to warm up in a new home, so we're looking for someone who understands that trust isn't always instant.

Give them a quiet place.

Give them patience.

Let them come to you.

And you'll get to discover the wonderful cats underneath that initial uncertainty. ❤️

They are cat-friendly and dog-friendly with respectful, cat-friendly dogs and would do best in a quieter home without small children.

Two hearts. One beautiful bond. 🐾❤️

🐱🐱🐱 HONDO, HARLEY & SQUISHY

THREE SPECIAL CATS. ONE LITTLE FOSTER FAMILY. SO MUCH LOVE. ❤️

What happens when three wonderful cats become friends and discover that life is even more fun when you have someone to play with, chase around the house, and snuggle beside?

You get Hondo, Harley & Squishy! 🐱🐱🐱❤️

These three have become a little family of their own in their foster home.

They play together.

They chase each other.

They hang out with the other cats.

They enjoy the dogs.

And when the fun is over?

They love to snuggle with their foster mom. 🥹💗

And here's the really special part…

THEY DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO GO TOGETHER. 🥰

They could:

🐾 All three go to one wonderful home

🐾 Hondo & Harley go together

🐾 Any two of the three could be adopted together

🐾 Or one could join a home with another friendly cat who needs a new best friend

We're simply looking for the right match for each of them.

💙 HONDO & HARLEY

These handsome boys are approximately 3-year-old brothers who know the joy of having a feline sibling.

They love to:

🐾 Play tag

🐾 Chase toys

🐾 Hang out with other cats

🐾 Spend time with the dogs in their foster home

🐾 And, of course, snuggle with their foster mom

They're the perfect combination of playful and affectionate.

One minute they're racing around with zoomies.

The next, they're curled up beside their favorite person.

💗 SQUISHY

Squishy is our approximately 2-year-old little girl, and she is every bit as adorable as her name suggests. 🥰

She loves being part of the action.

She enjoys playing with her feline friends, chasing toys, hanging out with the cats and dogs in her foster home…

And after a good play session?

Snuggle time with her foster mom is the BEST. 🥹❤️

All three have shown us just how much they enjoy having furry friends around.

But there's something their future families need to know:

THEY NEED A LITTLE TIME. 🥹

A new home is a big change.

They may need some time to feel comfortable and understand that they've found somewhere safe.

We're looking for families who will let them decompress, give them patience, and allow their personalities to come out at their own pace.

Once they feel safe?

That's when the magic happens. ❤️

Their playful sides come out.

Their curiosity comes out.

Their affection comes out.

And eventually, hopefully, those wonderful snuggles come too. 🥹💗

💙 MARTIN & TINA

These approximately 1-year-old siblings are the kind of cats their foster family simply can't say enough good things about.

They're:

🐾 Wonderful with cats

🐾 Great with cat-friendly dogs

🐾 Great with children

🐾 Social and friendly

🐾 Playful

🐾 Loving

🐾 Fully vetted

They love laser games.

They love chasing balls.

They love playing tag with their furry friends.

And after all that fun?

Snuggle time with their people. 🥹❤️

And those beautiful, incredibly soft gray coats?

You'll want to pet them forever.

Martin and Tina are ready for a family who will love them for everything they are.

🐾 AND THEN THERE ARE OUR FIVE LITTLE ONES…

Sir Didymus • Rajah • Ludo • Moss • Onyx

Five kittens.

Five personalities.

Five little lives getting their chance.

They're all around 20 weeks old.

Sir Didymus and Rajah are brothers, and Ludo is their sister.

Moss and Onyx are brother and sister.

Their moms had been living outside and doing their best to survive. Thankfully, wonderful foster care gave these babies a safe place to grow.

Now they're learning how wonderful life can be.

🐱 Playing

🐾 Chasing each other

🎾 Exploring

😻 Making friends

💤 Wearing themselves out

❤️ And doing it all over again!

They're finishing their veterinary care and will be ready for their forever families as they complete the process.

Some may be happiest with a feline friend.

Some may be perfect as a pair.

And somewhere among these five may be the little face you've been waiting for.

❤️ THEY ALL HAVE DIFFERENT STORIES.

But they have one thing in common.

THEY'RE WAITING.

Waiting for someone to look beyond the photo.

Beyond the fact that there are two.

Beyond the fact that there might be three.

Beyond the fact that they might need a little patience.

Beyond the fact that rescue doesn't always come with a perfectly packaged pet.

Because sometimes the most rewarding animals are the ones who need you to say:

“I'll give you time.”

“I'll give you a chance.”

“I'll choose you.” ❤️

Lucky Paws Rescue is a small but mighty, foster-based 501(c)(3) rescue in Western Washington.

We give 100% to every animal we commit to.

We rescue animals who might otherwise have nowhere to go.

We work with shelters, veterinarians, foster families, and rescue partners to give animals a second chance.

And our goal isn't simply to get them adopted.

Our goal is to find them the home where they will never need to be rescued again. 🏡❤️

🐾 COULD YOU BE THE PERSON THEY'VE BEEN WAITING FOR?

If you're interested in adopting, please complete our adoption application:

📋 https://form.jotform.com/50488470409157

📍 Western Washington — Olympia, Tacoma, Seattle & surrounding areas

And if adoption isn't possible right now…

🙏 PLEASE SHARE.

Because your share could be the one that puts these faces in front of the person they've been waiting for.

The person who sees two cats and thinks:

“I have room for both.”

The person who sees three cats who love furry friends and thinks:

“Maybe I have room for all three.”

The person who sees a shy cat and thinks:

“I'll be patient.”

The person who sees a kitten and thinks:

“That's my baby.”

The person who finally says:

“Those are my cats. I'm coming for them.” 🥹❤️

They've waited long enough.

LET'S GET THESE BABIES HOME. 🐾🏡❤️

Help us give Gigi her best life! Gigi (on the right) is in dire need of surgery to correct luxating patellas in both back legs. She is very young, and this surgery will add quality to her life, as of now both kneecaps are slipping or dislocating. Over time, this can cause more lameness and pain for her. This surgery is very successful, and we have an AMAZING and very skilled doctor who will perform the surgery for us on both legs next Saturday, September 26. In addition, he has given us an extremely reasonable estimate of $ 4,480.

We have a pledge of $1,000 from a generous donor towards Gigi’s surgery along with another $ 400 we’ve received! If you can help in any way toward Gigi’s surgery, no amount is too small. We have had many unexpected costs recently and every dollar adds up.

Gigi and her brother, Guido (pictured here with her), were living on the streets before being brought to a local shelter. It was clear they were scared of the world and very dependent on each other.

They have bloomed these past five months living in one of our most amazing foster homes! They are silly, sweet, and so fun! They are still very bonded and will only be adopted as a pair, together. They are very young, estimated to be about two years old. Gigi weighs about 10 pounds, with Guido around 11 pounds.

Please, pause for a moment. One of the questions we ask on our adoption application is "Do you have a plan in place for your pets in the unexpected event of your demise? If yes, please briefly explain."

This is Keko. We took him into our rescue in 2023 when he was 10 years old. That is a story in itself, but he went to one of our most loving foster homes, where he ended up being adopted because he and his foster mom bonded so strongly, and she did not want him to have to move again at the age of 10. All was fabulous for Keko.

Fast forward to 2026. About a month ago, we reached out to Keko's mom to see if she might foster another dog since Keko was always so dog friendly. Her number was disconnected, and we found out she had suddenly passed away several months ago. Upon more research, we also found out that no one knew for sure where Keko was or how he was. We were sick, because we knew how much he was loved by his mama. A close family member was trying to get into the home but deterred by an individual who now has a warrant out for their arrest. The legal system, as we all know, can be complex, frustrating, and slow. This is all another story in itself. But to sum it up, Keko was physically and emotionally abused by this individual. Thankfully, we finally got Keko into our hands a few days ago. Recent neglect was obvious and we now need your help.

Keko is currently in Tacoma, and he needs a ride to Olympia tomorrow - Thursday, September 17. He has a vet appointment at 3:00, and the new foster home for him will meet someone at the vet office. Can you help get him there?

And remember - when you adopt from us at Lucky Paws Rescue, you can always give our information to your executor, attorney, or family/friends as a contact in the event something should happen to you. We are so thankful that we found Keko.
