Adoption Process at the Atlantic Animal Shelter Anyone interested in adopting an available animal must first participate in a staff-supervised meet & greet with the pet of their choice. Before the visit begins, a liability waiver must be signed. Our staff oversee these visits to help ensure that the potential adopter and the animal are a good fit for one another. During this time, we’ll ask questions about the adopter’s home life, share important details about the animal’s personality and needs, and provide guidance to support a successful match. In some cases, additional steps are required, including: A completed adoption application References Contact with the adopter’s veterinarian Written approval from a landlord (if the adopter does not own their home) Our goal is to make sure every animal is placed in a safe, loving, and appropriate home where they can thrive.
