Meriden Animal Hospital

Additional adoption info

Meriden Animal Hospital is not a rescue or shelter. We conduct veterinary (and personal) reference checks during the application approval process.

The prospective adopter will agree:

1. Pets are to live in a private residence as companion animals.

2. To provide the pet with sufficient quantities of nutritious food and fresh water each day.

3. Never too strike or otherwise harm the pet.

4. Never to have the pet (cat) declawed.

5. Spaying or neutering is required by five months of age. If pet is not spayed or neutered prior to adoption, proof of surgery must be mailed to the original caregiver within 30 days of the procedure.

6. To ensure that the pet’s vaccinations for rabies and distemper are current and to provide veterinary care

7. If the pet must be relinquished for any reason by the prospective caregiver, s/he MUST NOT turn the pet over to a humane society, shelter or person, but must return the pet to the Adoptee. If the phone number and/or address for the original caregiver is no longer operative, the caregiver will make a good faith effort to locate and contact the original caregiver.
