Adopting a friend
Before you can adopt a pet, we will require proof of address. If you do not rent, bring proof of home ownership with you. If you do rent in Marathon County, a signed letter of consent from your landlord will be needed. It is a real shame when a pet is returned or abandoned because a renter was not supposed to have pets.
There are several other things to consider before you adopt. The humane society does want to find homes for all the animals we receive, however, we want to find permanent and loving homes for them. That means we do our best to ensure a pet isn't returned because the person giving it a home didn't think this through completely.
