Fez's Story

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Fez may be a wee fellow, but don't tell him that. He embodies all that "Chihuahua" entails- larger than life personality (with lots of opinions), and a dedicated and close companion to those in his circle. Please don't get any ideas about dressing this fellow up and carting him around in cute handbags, he likes to use his own four legs to travel- and clothing is (at best) considered "excessive" in his opinion. Fez gets along with dogs and cats, he would do best in a home with another small or toy breed female. He appreciates animals (including humans) that are considerate and patient. He does tend to gravitate to small dogs, and has an affinity specifically to small and toy breed females (once he gets to know them). He tends to ignore cats, but would do best with a dog savvy cat.<br/><br/>Fez can be nervous in new circumstances and may be a flight risk in a new home, due to this and his wish to be independent at times- a secure fenced in yard (physical fencing appropriate for a toy breed) is a must. He is well behaved in the home and is not destructive, and he is crate trained and potty trained. Fez requires a home without children, he has come a long way with trusting humans and handling- but he has been very clear about the requirement for a child free home. If you are an experienced dog owner with an affinity for Chi's, this fellow may be perfect for you!

Chatham Animal Rescue Education Inc.'s Adoption Policy

Pet Adoption Policy Meeting Our Foster Animals CARE is a volunteer-based organization which relies on foster caregivers to provide loving, stable homes to homeless cats and dogs, helping them become the best possible pets for their future forever families. We do not have a brick and mortar facility; our foster pets reside in our volunteers’ homes and become a part of the family until a forever home is found. You can meet many CARE foster pets at CARE adoption events or, after an application is submitted, by agreement with the CARE foster caregiver at a mutually agreed upon place. Adoption Process If you are interested in adopting a particular animal that is listed on the CARE website, click on Adoption Application and complete the application form. You will receive an automatic notification by email when CARE has received your application. Your application will be forwarded to that animal’s volunteer foster caregiver, who will review your application and contact you within 72 hours. CARE foster caregivers are dedicated to finding the perfect match for each animal. Many pets get multiple applications and we ask that you be patient as we will personally contact each applicant. We strive to find the perfect forever home for each cat and dog, taking into consideration the pet’s personality characteristics, age, energy level, health status, etc., as well as the living situation within the home of a potential adopter. Note that submission of an adoption application does not guarantee that you will be selected as the new guardian for an animal. CARE volunteer foster caregivers know their foster animal’s behavior and temperament and are trained to look for the best fit in placing their foster animals. We consider many factors before finalizing adoptions for our foster animals. Additionally, we check vet references and we conduct home visits. You must be 21 years of age or older to adopt an animal from CARE. CARE does not discriminate on the basis of age, sex, gender, race, sexual orientation, or marital status. CARE’s only concern is finding the right home for each foster animal in our care. Due to the nature of our adoption process, we generally only adopt to homes located within 60 miles of Pittsboro, NC. Adoption Fees The adoption fee for cats is $100. This includes: FIV/FeLV testing Sterilization surgery All appropriate vaccinations Microchip Deworming Dental work (if necessary) Routine and emergency (if needed) veterinary care while in foster care The adoption fee for dogs ranges from $185-275. This includes: Testing for heartworm/ehrlichia/lyme disease Sterilization surgery All appropriate vaccinations Microchip Deworming Routine and emergency (if needed) veterinary care while in foster care Dental work (if necessary) Basic obedience training Common Adoption Process Questions I’m interested in an animal on the CARE website, can I visit the animal before submitting an application? Our animals live in the homes of our volunteer foster caregivers, so unfortunately there is no facility where you can visit our animals. However, we regularly attend adoption events, please check our Events Schedule. If you are interested in a particular animal or multiple animals, please submit an application (Dogs | Cats) so that our foster caregivers can determine if you might be a good match. A volunteer will be in touch within 72 hours. Submission of an adoption application does not obligate you in any way. I’m interested in an animal on the CARE website, is the animal still available? Animals that are on a trial adoption or are pending adoption will usually be marked as such on the website. If this is not the case, an animal is likely available but may or may not have one or more applications in process. If you are interested in an animal, please submit an application (Dogs | Cats) and we will let you know their status. I’m interested in an animal on the CARE website, can you tell me more about them? Each animal on the website includes a description, and we strive to include as much information that we may have. As most of our animals are taken in from the County shelter, often we do not know the history of a particular animal.
