Adoption Applications

What to Expect

Thank you for filling out an application for adopting one of our pets. The adoption process is long and detailed so we can properly match the right pet for the right home. There are times we get numerous applications for one animal and more than one of the homes are a good match. Unfortunately a pet cannot be split in two, three or fours. After an adoption day we have sometimes dozens of applications to weed through.

If we think you may be a possible match we will contact you within the following week. Then we would set up a time for a home visit and begin checking your references. If we think you would not be a good match that DOES NOT mean we think you would be a bad pet owner in anyway. If we think the pet you are considering is not a good match we will keep you on file and should a pet come to us that seems like it would be a good match we will contact you. If you are one of a few who we are considering for an animal but you do not get chosen, once again we will keep your application on file in case we get a pet that we think would fit with you.

If you decide after meeting the pet you are no longer interested please let us know that. We are explaining all this so no one has hurt feelings. Our main objective is to place pets in homes where they can live out the rest of their lives. Thank you for understanding. If you have any questions, please contact us.

Please Read and Understand our Adoption Process prior to submitting your application. View Adoption Process
