Southern Animal Rescue's adoption process
Additional adoption info
We ask that all adopters fill out an application and complete an interview and home check. If approved, we have an adoption contract that the adopters must agree to and sign.
We ask that all cats be kept indoors and that all dogs be kept indoors primarily and only allowed outdoors with proper supervision. All adopters must agree to give Heartworm prevention to the pets for the pets's lifetimes.
Our adoption fees are $125 for cats/kittens and $195 for dogs/puppies. The adoption fee covers all of the pet's vetting including all necessary tests, vaccinations, spay/neuter and microchip.

About Southern Animal Rescue
Southern Animal Rescue was founded in November 2008. Our mission is to rescue and re-home abused,
neglected and homeless dogs and cats in metro-Atlanta, to educate pet owners to properly care for
their animals and to reduce the number of feral cats and kittens through the humane practice of TNR
(trap-neuter-return).
We are active and vocal advocates for abused and abandoned pets in our local communities and
with our State law makers. We believe that rescue alone will never save enough lives nor bring
about a long-term solution to Georgia's pet overpopulaton crisis. In all that we do, we strive to create communities where, one day in the not-so-distant future, our rescue work is no longer required.
S.A.R. is 501(c)(3) non profit. We are run by all non-paid
volunteers. Your donations go directly toward veterinary care for the animals we rescue.

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.
