All fees cover care and medical treatment of the pet. All pets will be spayed/neutered prior to adoption. No exceptions. All pets will be up to date on veterinary care as required by their age.

In order to adopt you must fill out the application. We will contact you via phone or email to set up a face to face meeting at which point you can meet the pet as well.

We will discuss the adoption and determine if you and your chosen pet are a good fit.

A home check may be required.

Once all requirements have been met and it has been determined that both you and your chosen pet are a good fit for one another you may take your pet home.
