Truman says if he doesn't find his forever family soon, he's going to have to become an Instagram model. So please consider adopting him...I do not have the wherewithal to run a cat's social media accounts.

Truman is a glamorous five-year-old gentleman who gets along well with people and other cats. He's Deaf which just means he listens about as well as any other cat and has a very cute/loud meow.

If you're interested in meeting Truman or any of our available animals, send us a message here on Facebook or email us at [email protected] to set up an appointment!

Thank you Leah Kenney for the photos!

FOSTER OPPORTUNITY!

We know how difficult it can be to decide to commit to a pet, especially while serving overseas. And an older animal comes with more difficulties still. But we here at RAWL want so badly to see Hercules find a home--even if it's only temporary. Hercules has been living in shelters for the last seven years. He's almost ten and we'd love for him to know what it's like to be a house dog and live out at least some of his golden years on a couch instead in a kennel.

Hercules loves people of all ages but he would do best as the only animal. He's very good with kids but due to his size, a family with older children would be ideal. Although he is a senior dog, he is in great condition; the only chronic issue he deals with are ear infections which we believe may be eased in a home environment rather than a shelter.

As a foster animal, any potential vet care Hercules required would be entirely paid for by RAWL.

If you are interested in fostering Hercules, please send us a message here on Facebook or email us at [email protected] so we can begin the process. We want this grand old man to have the retirement he deserves--in a loving home!

🩷Gumball & Tepig🩷

•These incredibly sophisticated ladies are available for adoption! They're best friends! They would really love to be adopted together if possible but if not, they would each prefer to be in a house with at least one other cat. Gumball and Tepig are perfect if you're looking to add someone quiet, independent low maintenance and loving to your tamily. If you're interested in Gumball or Tepig (or Gumball And Tepig ) please send us a message or email us at [email protected] to schedule a meeting!

Rota Animal Welfare League

In 1989, three like-minded friends combined their own individual efforts of helping homeless community animals into an organization. Thanks to their ceaseless hard work, private donations, and volunteer participation, RAWL has become a thriving and caring halfway home for animals that is unique among military installations. To date, RAWL has successfully re-homed more than 1000 cats and dogs with caring NAVSTA ROTA community individuals and families.

RAWL has been an integral part of the NAVSTA Rota community for more than 30 years. As a private organization, base approval is filed for annually. We have an elected volunteer board that provides oversight of operations at the shelter. Our animals come to RAWL from local shelters and partners as well as from individuals who can no longer care for their animals.

Due to our limited capacity in space, we are unable to take in stray animals and do not have an open admissions policy.
