My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

My name is McKinney - it's nice to meet you! I'm very shy when I meet someone new, but once I get to know you and feel safe, I am the sweetest, kindest, most gentle boy you'll ever meet. My foster dad thinks my tiny meows are the cutest thing ever, and I love to get belly rubs, watch birds through the window, and play with felt wand toys and spiky rubber balls! I also am starting to meet the other cats in my foster home, and really enjoy that too. My holiday wish is to have someone take a chance on a shy boy like me - I have so much love and so many snuggles to give!

Pets in foster care can only be met after submitting an approved application; pets at the shelter can be met during open house hours.

3.
Approve Application

We will have a discussion with you, and after ensuring the pet is a good fit for your home, you will be approved.

4.
Sign Adoption Contract

Once you've met the pet and have decided you want to adopt, you will sign an adoption contract.

5.

You will pay the adoption fee at the time you sign the adoption contract; we do not have application fees when applying.

6.

Yay! It's done and you are able to take your new pet home!

Go meet their pets

Our shelter is in north Fargo, near the old Yunker's Children's Museum, located just off of University Dr. on 28th Ave. N. We have open house hours from 4-7pm Tuesday-Friday, and 2-6pm on Saturdays. We have adoption events throughout the year, and you can find more information about those on our website at www.homewardonline.org or our Facebook page, www.facebook.com/HomewardAnimalShelter.

More about this shelter

We are a small shelter that rescues pets from local impounds whose time is up, and would otherwise be euthanized. We only have 9 dog kennels and 26 cat kennels; as many of 80% of the animals in our care are located in foster homes throughout the community at any time. We are very limited on space within our shelter and often, we can't take in owner surrenders, but will do our best to help give guidance about rehoming pets.

We offer several services besides adoption, including microchip clinics and pet-friendly rental housing listings.

We are the only shelter in the FM area that rescues both cats and dogs, so without our help, hundreds of dogs and cats would be euthanized each year in local pounds.
