All Creatures Rescue

Our Adoption Process is as follows: 1) Download, complete, and return you adoption application to us by email. 2) Your application will be reviewed and your references checked. If you have not been on file with a Veterinarian in the last 3 years please complete that section of the form with 2 personal references. 3) Upon review of your application you will be notified of your adoption status with us. 4) If your application is approved we will contact via email to set up a convenient time to conduct a phone interview. 4) Phone Interview- During the phone interview you will learn all there is to know about the pet you wish to adopt. We will also set up time that is convenient for all parties involved in which the Home Visitation will be conducted. *Please not that if you live more than 30 miles from Lake Charles, LA you may be asked for photos of your home, yard, and fencing prior to our visit* 5) Home Visitation- During the home visitation our representatives will request to see all parts of your home and yard, especially the areas where your new pet will frequent. Please note that the pet you are interested in adopting may or may not be present during the visitation. Upon passing home visitation we will complete all necessary adoption paperwork and your new pet may or may not be left with you. There are instances where we will visit your home more than once to help the rescued pet ease into his or her new environment while still being with the people they have learned to trust. While are adoption process may sound lengthy, it is what we feel we must do to ensure our rescues have the best possible homes. Requirements for Adoption: 1) Adopter/Foster must have a fenced yard to adopt any dog/horse from us. 2) Adopter's/Foster's fencing must surround an exit leading from the home. 3) Adopter/Foster cannot live more than 150 miles from the Lake Charles, Louisiana area. You may be considered if we can locate a volunteer to conduct your homevisit and you live out of the 150 mile radius. 4) Adopter/Foster must have Veterinary references or 2 personal references. Personal references cannot be family members! 5) Anyone that applies as an Adopter or Foster must not have ever been cited for violations of leash laws, animal cruelty or any other form of animal negligence. 6) BREEDERS NEED NOT APPLY AT ALL!! We do not approve of any breeding habits if it is not for the sake of improving the breed for show purpose or to prevent extinction of endangered animals! There are too many homeless cats, dogs, horses, and small animals in the world now, do your part not to add to the pet overpopulation!
