Each month, we hand-select two postcards featuring real adoptable pets from an Austin-area shelter, plus a few sweet extras. $10 a month. Half of every dollar goes directly to that month's featured shelter.
Sign up for $10/month. Cancel anytime. No strings, no guilt, just good mail delivered to your door.
Each month we partner with a local Austin shelter and hand-select one cat and one dog who are looking for their forever home.
Your envelope shows up with two postcards, a surprise goodie, and the warm feeling that you're actually helping animals find homes.
Each envelope is curated with care. Here's exactly what you'll find inside.
Two real postcards featuring adoptable animals from that month's featured shelter: one cat, one dog. Each is printed on quality card stock with their photo, name, age, personality, and how to start the adoption process.
Every month we include a little something extra: sticker sheets, small art prints, bookmarks, buttons, and more. Always animal-themed. Always delightful. Always a surprise.
50% of monthly profits from your subscription go directly to that month's featured shelter. Your $10 doesn't just buy mail; it funds real animal care right here in Austin.
Austin shelters are full of animals who deserve a home. The problem isn't that people don't care; it's visibility. We believe that when someone holds a real photo of a dog named Biscuit who loves belly rubs and is waiting at a local shelter, something shifts.
Austin Pet Post was built to create that moment, month after month, and to make sure the shelters themselves are supported in the process. Forty cents of every dollar you spend goes to our costs. The other fifty goes straight to the animals.
We'll announce our first featured shelter when subscriptions open. Follow us on Instagram to be the first to know.

Yes, that's the whole point. Every month we work directly with a local Austin shelter to feature two real animals who need homes. Their actual photos, names, ages, and personalities are printed right on the postcard, along with how to contact the shelter to start the adoption process.
Each month, we calculate total profit: total revenue minus our costs for printing, materials, packaging, and shipping. 50% of that profit goes directly to the shelter we featured that month. We're committed to publishing monthly donation reports so you can see exactly what was donated and to whom.
We ship once per month, typically during the first week. If you subscribe mid-month, you'll receive your first envelope the following month. You'll get an email notification with a tracking number when yours is on the way.
We partner with Austin-area animal shelters and rescue organizations on a rotating monthly basis.

Absolutely. You can cancel your subscription at any time through your Shopify account. No phone calls, no waiting, no questions asked. If you cancel before your next billing date, you won't be charged for the following month.
It rotates! Planned goodies include sticker sheets, small art prints, bookmarks, enamel pins, and more. They're always animal-themed and chosen with care. We may occasionally feature items from local Austin artists and makers, because shopping local matters too.
Yes! We ship anywhere in the United States. Our shelter partnerships are Austin-focused, but your subscription helps those local animals find homes no matter where you live. Want to spread the word about an Austin animal while living in New York? We love that.
