Adoption Process

Applicants review a pet's profile and submit an online application, after which an adoption counselor calls to discuss the match and schedules an in-person appointment (typically within 24-48 hours) to meet the pet, sign the adoption agreement, and pay the adoption fee; adopters must be at least 21 (or 18 with a co-adopter 21+) and provide legal ID.
