Adoption Process

Visit the shelter during open hours (no appointment needed) to meet the animals, then submit an online adoption application (via ShelterLuv or paper form); applications take at least 2 business days to process, and once approved, applicants schedule a meet-and-greet with the pet before finalizing the adoption. Adopters must be 21 or older, provide landlord approval if renting, and unaltered puppies/kittens can only go to adopters living within 100 miles.
