Pumpkin’s FAQs

What is Animal Preservation of East Texas (APET)’s adoption process?

We have potential adopters apply for the animal they are wishing to adopt. At this point, we schedule a home visit (in most cases, unless we already know the adopter). We go out to the adopter's home and check their fence, their home, and any other animals they own. All of their own animals must be spayed and neutered and up to date on vaccines or they are not allowed to adopt any of ours. If everything passes inspection, they adoption is allowed to proceed and they return to the shelter to pick up the animal.
