My name is Misty!

Morris Animal Refuge has a holistic open adoptions policy that seeks to find the best home for every animal and the best animal for every home. No appointment is required to adopt with us; walk-ins are welcome. We will process your information at the time of adoption and in most cases your animal can go home with you on the same day. Adoptions are same-day, first-come-first-served. We cannot hold animals for pick-up at a later date. When you arrive at the refuge, please bring a valid photo ID and cash or card to pay the adoption fee. It is encouraged, but not required, that you bring any children, current dogs, or other members of your household to meet the dog you are interested in adopting. If you are interested in adopting a cat, please do not bring any other pets with you. Because cats require slow introductions to new animals the shelter setting is not a good place for them to meet new potential furry family members. All animals adopted from Morris Animal Refuge are: – Spayed/Neutered – Up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations – Treated for fleas and most intestinal parasites – Microchipped – Cared for by our loving staff until they find their forever homes!

The Morris Animal Refuge is a 501(c)(3) shelter dedicated to helping the homeless, abandoned and unwanted pets of the Philadelphia region. Founded in 1874 by Elizabeth Morris, we were the first organization dedicated to sheltering and rehoming pets, and continue that legacy today by providing adoptions, a low-cost spay/neuter program, fostering, humane education and more.
