Additional adoption info
Anyone interested in adopting a pet from the Pet Assistance League should complete an adoption application form before coming in to see the currently available pets. This will make the process go a bit smoother as it reduces the amount of your time required in filling paperwork out at the store, and helps us get a better idea of what your needs are in advance. This way we can help try to determine what pets might be a good match for your situation. Not all pets are suited for all homes & vice-versa.
When coming to see a pet you are interested in adopting, please expect to spend at least one hour with the pet during the adoption process. It is important that you spend time with the pets in order to select a pet that is a good match for your family.
Adoption fees are charged for each pet adoption. The adoption fee helps us defray the cost of the animal's boarding and medical care. The adoption fee ranges from $125 to $250 per animal and takes into account whether spaying or neutering has already occurred. Animals made available for adoption may have recently had their health verified by one of the veterinarians who provide services to PAL, or a vet checkup may be recommended as something for you to have done after adoption. Health and shot records are provided when available. Where possible, we also test kittens over 12 weeks of age for Feline Aids and Feline Leukemia. Please Note: No test is 100% accurate for these viruses. For dogs, distemper & rabies vaccines and a heartworm test are administered if they are old enough for testing.

About Pet Assistance League
The Pet Assistance League (PAL) is a non-profit organization that helps find homes for displaced and abandoned animals, primarily cats and dogs. Founded in 1986, the league has helped thousands of animals find permanent homes with caring families.

Our PAL volunteers provide adoption services for homeless pets in the Washington DC Metro area, and in Northern Virginia. Adoptive families for PAL pets have been found in many East Coast states. PAL animals are displayed for adoption at the PETSMART store located in Prince William County, near the Potomac Mills shopping center in Woodbridge, Virginia.

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.
