Have you ever rescued from a shelter, pound, or rescue group?

of course most of us here have and do.
I don't like to use the word "rescue". She was never in danger of being put to sleep. Her foster mom would have kept her until her last breath. She was never in peril. I didn't rescue her- I adopted her :) I always put emphasis on "adopt" when people ask me that question.
No I haven't, and I regret it!:( My next dog will be a rescue!:)
Thats awesome!! Hope things go well!Quote:

Roscoe and Katie are from shelters and Belle was a stray kitten. IMO rescue or adopted animals make some of the best pets - once they feel comfortable they become fiercly loyal. They can be a lot of work, but they have the biggest rewards :D
I have adopted one kitty from the Humane Society. She wasnt in danger or anything, since our HS in a no kill one. But she had allergies and was sick a lot, but I loved her, so we adopted her. She was so sweet. We adopted her, because my old cat had disappeard and she had been gone for 2 months, so my mom desided I could get another cat. But, someone called and told us that they had our cat, that disappeard, 200 miles away :eek: so we went and got her, and we had to rehome the cat I adopted, so she is living with an older couple, with many other kitty friends :)
Mandy came from the shelter and Luka came from the humane society. Nova was from a breeder.
Yes, my beloved Patches came from a rescue organization.
But THEY rescued and I ADOPTED. Patches was a magnificent female calico kitty. She was already six months old so they were happy that I chose her over some of the cute kittens.
yes, Niņo had not been heavily looked at and he had about a week left at the shelter
Absolutely! All of my animals came as a rescue of some kind. All of my kitties were rescued from the street, and my dog Priya came from the animal shelter where I was volunteering. In fact, I was there the day she came in, and that night I just couldn't stop thinking about her, so the next day I went to the shelter and brought her home! :D
Rescued pets make the best pets! ;)
**hugs**
Both of my dogs are from a shelter. One of my cats I took off of the street and the other I got from a coworker that doesn't have a good track record with cats so I consider her 'rescued' also.
Yep, we got Grant from our local shelter. Thank goodness it's a no kill shelter.
Spot was rescued from a shleter in very sense of the word. He was literally on the table to be PTS, when the the girl with him started crying. The shelter manager gave her one more day to find him a home, and long story short, after a 500+ mile round trip, I brought him home and have never regretted it for a minute.
