FAQ Adoption Process: Thank you for considering adoption. If you are ready to take the next step in pet parenthood, please see our process below: Step One: Download and complete an adoption application for either a Dog or Cat. The application is located under our logo to the right, labeled "Adoption Application". Step Two: Complete and submit the form to rescue@pupstarzrescue.org. Should you have any questions during this time, please feel free to email us. Please note that only complete applications with necessary documentation will be processed. Step Three: We will review your application, set up time to discuss your needs/preferences, and conduct reference checks. Step Four: We will schedule a home check and interview that takes approximately 20-30 minutes, talking to you about adoption and any concerns you may have. Step Five: Once your interview is complete we will connect you with the foster parent of the pup/cat that has caught your eye and schedule a meet and greet. Things to note: 1. Your application must be submitted with required supporting documents. 2. All dogs/cats and family members in your current household must meet the prospective Animal. 3. You must be 25 years of age to adopt. To foster, you must be 21.
