Our adoption process is by appointment only.

Cat Adoption Application
Dog Adoption Application

Our process:

  • Each of our animals has specific needs and personalities, so it’s important to make sure you choose one that is right for you. If you’re interested in applying for one of our animals, first click on our “adoptable pets” tab to see what animals are currently available for adoption and then fill out our adoption application. It’s important to read the bio for the dog or cat that interests you to see if it will be a good fit for your household. If you don’t see the right pet for you, but you want to apply for a future adoption, you can still fill out an adoption application. Simply describe what you are looking for in the first section of the application, and we will keep your application on file for six months.
  • After we receive your application, we will contact you to talk about the best fit for your family and answer any of your questions.
  • We will then complete any vet reference or landlord check, if needed.
  • Next, we will contact you to schedule a time for you to meet and potentially adopt your new friend.
  • Note: Our adoptions are not on a first come, first served basis. Sometimes we have many great applicants for one animal; when that happens we will choose the best fit for that pet based on its specific needs. Our mission is to give each of our animals the best environment for their personal needs, in order to ensure they have a home forever.

Requirements:

  • You must be 21 years or older to adopt an animal from us. Please bring a valid form of identification.
  • All members of the household must visit with the potential new family member before the adoption is finalized. We want to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone!
  • If you are planning on adopting a dog and already have an existing dog, we ask that you leave them at home during your first visit. Once you’ve decided on the right dog for you, we can schedule an appointment to bring your dog to the shelter for a dog meet and greet. This is not necessary for cats.
  • Renters: We will need to contact your landlord or rental company to verify the pet policy.
  • We require a veterinary reference for adopters who currently or recently had a pet. If you do not have any pets or have not had one recently, we do ask that you make a deposit at a veterinary clinic (of your choice) to cover the cost for your first visit. This ensures us that you plan to provide the care your pet will need to live a long and healthy life.
