PAWS Community Center's adoption process

Additional adoption info

To initiate the adoption process, kindly ensure that you have the following documents in order: a valid identification, proof of your current address (in case it differs from the ID), and a copy of your lease agreement if applicable. We highly recommend participating in meet and greets prior to adoption, and it is mandatory if there are any unaltered animals in your household.

During the application review, we will collaborate with you to ensure a seamless process. Upon approval, pets are eligible to leave on the same day. Payments can be made in cash or by check; however, please note that we do not accept credit cards.

It's essential to be aware that most pets will require a rabies vaccine and sterilization after leaving the shelter. While we do not provide these services directly, we can offer resources for clinics where adopters can access these services at a low cost or even free of charge if they reside in qualifying zip codes. Your cooperation in fulfilling these requirements ensures the well-being and responsible care of your adopted pet.

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.
