RAVE Rural Animal Volunteer Effort
Our Mission
Giving gently used pets their second chance at Furever homes.
Adoption Policy
You must be at least 21 years old to apply to adopt.
Our adoption process consists of an application, reference checks, home visits when a reference check is not enough, meet and greet and adoption contract signing.
Please fill out all application fields as accurately as possible.We will not process incomplete applications.
If a dog/pup is listed on Petfinder, we are still accepting applications on him/her.
We do not adopt on a first come, first serve basis, but based on what we feel is the best fit for the family and most importantly, the animal.
We do not keep applications on file. If you are interested in a particular animal please complete an application for that particular animal.
Due to limited space and funding we are unable to, "hold" any animal to be adopted at a later time even with a completed adoption contract.
We welcome out of state adopters. However, please keep in mind that you will HAVE TO come to Holly Hill, SC to meet and adopt any of our animals.
Adoption fees are normally $500 for dogs $100 for cats. However they vary by animal and are listed in each individual posting.
Meet and Greets are scheduled only with approved adoption applications.
Please keep in mind that we do our best to make an educated guess as to the breeds of our rescued pets. In rescue we rarely see the parents of our dogs and puppies, and even when we do, they are usually mixed breeds as well. We also rarely know the age or background (behavioral & medical). We do our best to give accurate descriptions based on what we see while we have them.
All animals are listed as Up To Date on Vaccines & Sapyed/Neutered because all animals are FULLY vetted before adoptions are finalized. However sometimes dog are not fully vetted when they are listed due to waiting on spay/neuter appointments.
