Puma's Story

**I am fee-waived for the month of August for Clear the Shelters!**<br/><br/>For more than 200 days, Puma has watched other dogs leave the shelter while he patiently waits for someone to choose him. We think it's about time his story changes. <br/>Puma us a sweet, goofy guy who loves long walks, toys, tasty treats, and most of all, being with his people. After spending time in both an office and a foster home, we've learned that he settles into a routine beautifully. He sleeps through the night on his own bed, has had no accidents in the home or office, and has done well being left alone for several hours. He's playful when it's time to have fun but also understands when his person is busy and is happy to relax nearby. <br/>Puma is a smart boy who knows his name, knows "sit", and pays close attention to his person's tone and body language. He can be a strong walker when something exciting catches his eye, especially a squirrel or rabbit, but responds well to redirection. Puma would do best in an adult-only home without children, where he can enjoy a quieter routine with his people. He'd also prefer to skip the dog-park scene and enjoys life with his humans instead. <br/>One thing to know about Puma is that he has a sensitive stomach. He's currently doing well on a special diet and smaller, spaced-out meals, and his future family should plan to work with their veterinarian on the best long-term nutrition for him. <br/>Puma comes to us as a stray, so we may not know much about his past, but after more than 200 days, we know quite a bit about who he is now: affectionate, playful, seems to be house-trained, adaptable, and very ready to belong to someone. <br/> Puma has waited long enough to trade his kennel for a couch. Could that couch be yours?

SPCA TAMPA BAY's Adoption Policy
Ready to Meet Your New Best Friend? 🐾 We’re so excited that you’re considering adoption! Our goal is to make the adoption experience welcoming, easy, and safe for both you and your new pet. Here are a few things to know before you visit: All adoptions take place in person. You’ll have the opportunity to meet and spend time with the pet, followed by a conversation with one of our friendly Adoption Counselors to help make sure it’s a great match. Our pets are available for adoption on a first-come, first-served basis. Because we want every pet to have the opportunity to find a home as soon as possible, we’re unable to place holds on pets over the phone. Adopters must be 18 years of age or older and bring a valid photo ID. Heading home with a dog? 🐶 Dogs must leave with a properly fitted collar and leash. Adopting a cat, rabbit, pocket pet, or reptile? 🐱🐰 They’ll need to travel home safely in an appropriate, secure carrier. Forgot your supplies or don’t have them yet? No worries! Collars, leashes, and carriers are available for purchase right here in our Adoption Center. We encourage you to come in, meet the animals who catch your eye, and keep an open heart—you may just find that the pet you least expected turns out to be your perfect match. ❤️ We can’t wait to help you welcome your new family member home!
