Augustus

Meet Augustus! 🙌

Augustus has quite the story, but he doesn’t let it define him.

Before coming into rescue, he spent nearly a year surviving on his own. Despite countless people trying to help him, he was simply too scared to trust anyone. Thanks to an incredible team of dedicated trappers and volunteers who never gave up on him, Augustus is finally safe!

Today, Gus is settling into the good life and showing us more of his sweet personality every day. ❤️

He can be a little reserved when meeting new people, which isn’t surprising after everything he’s been through, but patience (and yummy treats) goes a long way with this handsome guy. Once he feels comfortable, his loving, gentle nature starts to shine. Watching him discover that people can be trusted has been one of the most rewarding parts of his journey.

Augustus responds nicely to slow, positive introductions and allowing him to relax into feeling safe and happy with new people. His future family will need to understand that ...
