THANK YOU for your interest in adopting one of our lovable pets!
We take many things into consideration when choosing the best fit home for our animals, and we appreciate your support in this. Every situation is different, so please understand that we are trying to make the best match for both you and our furry friends.

We can only adopt to those 18 years of age and older.
All members of the household (spouses/significant others, children, roommates, etc.) must meet the animal prior to an adoption taking place.
All animals currently in the household must be up to date on vaccinations and altered prior to adopting a new pet.
Applications are kept on file for 3 months in case the animal you initially chose isn't a match for you and you wish to keep looking.
Kittens must be adopted in pairs unless there is a cat already living in the home. NO EXCEPTIONS, unless the kitten does not like other cats.

If you would like to FAST TRACK your application, please include the following:

CURRENT rabies certificates and proof of spay/neuter for all animals currently residing in the home or having lived in the home over the past 5 years
Proof of homeownership (photo of the deed of sale)

If you rent, please do the following BEFORE submitting your application:

Speak with your landlord about breed, age, size and species regulations
If applicable, have all emotional support animal (ESA) paper work on file with your landlord
