Shady's Paw Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
Potential adopters are encouraged to complete an adoption application. Once an adoption application is submitted, one of our adoption coordinators will reach out for a phone interview. This is an informal conversation to answer any questions or address any concerns that you may have. We will contact references, veterinarians, and complete a video home visit before final approval. This process can take 1-7 days depending on return time of calls. We are a 100% foster-based rescue and do not have a brick-and-mortar location for you to visit. Regular adoption events are held in Winchester VA and Martinsburg WV and beyond. Once approved, you can also request a private meet and greet. Kitties who are not yet spayed / neutered or need additional veterinary care will be placed in foster-to-adopt status with their adopter until their vetting is completed. Your adoption fee helps us to cover less than half of these costs. Additional donations are appreciated!
