Additional adoption info

Our goal is to find a good match for both the pet and the adopter. In order to help you find the most appropriate pet for your household, we ask you to complete a short survey about your home and lifestyle. We also request that all human members of your family meet the pet as possible. It's important that your new pet is compatible with all the people and pets in your house and we do our best to determine the adoptable pet's ability to adjust to your lifestyle. We evaluate each adoption on a case-by-case basis and may ask you to visit us several times to meet with the dog or cat prior to completing the adoption. The fees depend on the pet you adopt.
