Crossed Paws Rescue's adoption process

Additional adoption info

We use adoption applications, require references and a home check before the animal is adopted to ensure their safety. We ask either a donation fee for the adoption or ask a small adoption fee.

About Crossed Paws Rescue

Crossed Paws Rescue is a 501 C3 all volunteer animal rescue and adoption organization based in NJ run by Monica Sinforosa and Ilse Singer. We are dedicated to providing humane care and shelter for abandoned, abused and unwanted animals, finding them suitable new homes, and increasing public awareness on the responsibilities of pet ownership throughout the tri state areas. We also work to save the lives of cats and dogs slated for euthanasia at Animal Control facilities and Shelters. We are advocates of TNR and work closely with ferals. We also help create and manage controlled feral colonies.

CPR operates without a physical facility or paid staff. Our funds come from donations within the rescue community and private individuals. Our animals are in CPR approved foster homes until a suitable adoptive home is found. We use a detailed application and interview process in an effort to make the best match between the animal and an adoptive home. If for some reason the adoptive animal does not work out in their new home, it is required that our animals be returned to us so that we can place them back with their dedicated foster parent/s to ensure they will never wind up abandoned or in the shelter system.

All CPR pets are current with shots, testing; spayed or neutered, if not already and have been thoroughly examined by a vet before being adopted.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
