Animals can NOT go directly home when adopted. All animals go to a local veterinarian for spay or neuter and or to get vaccinations following an adoption. Reservations are made at adoption and you will be told when your pet can be picked up directly at veterinarians office. If you are coming from out of town plan ahead for two trips.
One exception is at our Saturday Adoptions, appointments can't be made until Monday morning. Adoptees are called Monday with dates to pick up pet's at Vet's.
If you see an animal you are interested in on these web pages, please come to the Shelter as quickly as possible. Space is limited, and animals have a very small window of time to be adopted.
The date available for
adoption is in some cases the animal's last day, so if you would like to adopt,
you should try to be at the Shelter at 1:00 pm on the date available for
adoption.
Once you get to the Shelter, it's easy:
Let the Shelter attendant know which pet you want.
Fill out a little paper work and pay your fees.
Your new pet will go to the vet to be neutered and have its shots.
You'll pick it up at the vet and then take it home to live
happily ever after..
