what is the adoption process?

The first step in the adoption process is to fill out an application. Your application will be reviewed by our adoption team, and you should hear a response within 24-72 hours. We do check vet references to ensure your current pets are altered and up-to-date on their rabies and distemper vaccinations. Once your application is approved, you will be connected with the pet’s foster family to set up a meet-and-greet. If all goes well, you will be sent adoption paperwork and payment options prior to picking up your new companion!
