Rescue FAQs

Higher Ground Animal Sanctuary is a non-profit organization & shelter rescue partner which serves to offer rescue, refuge, forever home adoptions, foster, medical care fund, and opportunities for humane education. At Higher Ground Animal Sanctuary, our goal is to attract responsible pet owners and to help them provide permanent loving homes. To that extent, we ask potential adopters to give serious thought to the responsibilities of pet ownership. The ultimate goal is to attempt to match the animal with the most suitable home. All animals released from Higher Ground Animal Sanctuary are to be altered, micro-chipped, up to date on vaccinations, and provided with instructions regarding medical & nutritional needs.

Due to high administrative workload please understand we are unable to respond to inquiries which are not accompanied by an adoption application.

Adoption fee varies between $73.00-$730.00 depending on the animal (cats, dogs, farm animals, horses,etc), and includes spay/neuter, micro-chip, license, up to date on vaccinations, and provided with instructions regarding medical & nutritional needs. Potential adopters must complete an adoption application & contract agreement.

Animals which are not yet available for adoption may be fostered through our Foster-to-adopt program, in which medical & other expenses are provided by HGAS until the animal is ready to adopt. Application & Policy agreement must be completed to foster for Higher Ground.
