All animals are sterilized and current on vaccinations by time of adoption. If for some reason an animal can't be sterilized prior to adoption a spay/neuter contract will be signed and a spay/neuter deposit will be utilized.

All applications are reviewed by a volunteer based committee. Applications are first reviewed and approved for general adoption, once all applications on a specific pet are reviewed best home for the pet will be chosen. If the application passed committee review the applicant will be contacted for a home visit. If all goes well with a home visit, a meet and greet may be set up with desired pet if the committee feels it's a good match. If there is more than one applicant for a specific pet the committee will choose the home they feel best to fit the pets needs.
