Adoption process

Our adoption process is application based. We don't do same day adoptions so we recommend you complete our online adoption application even if you don’t have a specific pet in mind. You will hear from one of our volunteers as soon as possible.

We MUST receive a completed application for you to be considered to adopt or arrange a meeting with any pet in foster care.  Approval to adopt is contingent upon completing an informal interview with a foster coordinator and approved vet and/or personal references, and landlord check if applicable.  

Once the application is approved, you will be invited to meet and greet the pet in foster care.  When a decision is made to adopt, we have the applicant sign an adoption contract and pay the adoption fee to officially transfer the ownership of the pet over to the new family.
