Beetle's Story

Hi, I'm Bettle. I'm a shy and sensitive guy who can be a little scared at first, but with time, love, and consistency, I know I can come out of my shell. I feel most comfortable in a quiet, cozy space where I can relax and take things at my own pace.<br/><br/>I may need a little extra patience in the beginning, but I have a gentle heart and so much love to give once I feel safe. With a calm home and a kind person to help me build confidence, I'll slowly start to show my true, sweet personality. If you're willing to give me the time I need, I'll be a very special companion.<br/><br/>I'm currently hanging out at the Houston Hub located at 901 Pinemont Drive, Houston, TX 77018. Come by and meet me between 9am-6pm. Feel free to text/call 832-342-9411 to let us know you are heading to the center so we can confirm Beetle is available.<br/><br/>To learn more about me fill out our adoption survey: https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/BHOU/Cat

Best Friends Animal Society - Houston's Adoption Policy
At Best Friends, we pride ourselves on our open adoptions policy. Open adoptions means that anyone 18 years of age or older is able to adopt from us on a first come, first served basis. What this means for virtual adoptions is that the first person who submits an appointment request to meet an animal gets to virtually meet the pet and decide if they want to move forward with adoption. During the meet & greet, the adopter asks questions about the pet, the foster showcases the amazing qualities of their foster pet, and the adoption team provides medical information, advises on the adoption process, and coordinates next steps. If the adopter decides not to move forward, we move on to the next meeting request. The meeting requests are time/date stamped to ensure fairness. Our adoption fees are as follows: $100 for dogs six months and older •$150 for puppies under six months old •$50 for adult cats six months old and older •$100 for kittens under six months
