NOTE: There is no guarantee of adoption at any step in the process. We are a match making organization. We do not adopt first come first serve. Our priority is finding the right home for the cats and dogs in our rescue.
Once your adoption application is on file, you may use it for consideration of any adoptable animal in the rescue. A new application does not need to be completed.
