Angels of Assisi

Adoption process

The adoption process at Angels of Assisi is designed to ensure that both pets and potential adopters find a suitable match. To begin the adoption process, interested individuals should first visit the shelter to meet the available animals. Once a connection is made with a pet, potential adopters will need to complete an adoption application, which can be filled out on-site or online. After submitting the application, the staff will review it to determine if the pet is a good fit for the applicant's lifestyle and home environment. This may involve a conversation with the applicant to discuss their preferences and any specific needs of the animal. In some cases, a home visit may be required to ensure a safe and welcoming environment for the new pet. Once the application is approved, adopters will be required to sign an adoption contract. This contract outlines the responsibilities of the adopter and emphasizes the importance of providing a loving, permanent home for the animal. The adoption fee, which helps cover the costs associated with caring for the animals at the shelter, will also be collected at this time. After the adoption is finalized, the new pet will receive a health check, vaccinations, and a microchip, if applicable. Angels of Assisi encourages ongoing support and communication between the organization and adopters to ensure a successful transition for both the pet and the new family.
