PAWS of Hillsborough County is non-profit, 501-C-3, all volunteer, local grassroots charity that has served the community since 1996. Our goal has been to provide shelter, medical care, and adoption of abandoned, abused, and relinquished animals. PAWS also services the community by helping to provide Veterinary care for those who are financially unable to provide for their pets. We solely depend on the generosity and donations of those who wish to help us further our mission to provide assistance to both pets and pet owners.
Fill out our online adoption application. Meet The Animal/Meet The Family. Since not all animals are suitable for all homes, we will make an initial determination, based on the adoption application if the animal is suited to the home. If we believe it is, we make arrangements for you to meet the animal and for PAWS to meet the family, all members of the household must be present. In-Home Visit. If, having met the animal and being fully aware of our adoption requirements, you wish to adopt the animal, PAWS will make an in-home visit to the applicant and meet the whole family and see where the dog 0r cat will be kept during the day and at night. PAWS does not adopt to homes where the dog will always be kept outdoors. Two Week Visitation Period. The new guardian takes responsibility for the animal and he/she is moved into his/her new home. The first one or two weeks are a visitation period to see how well the animal adjusts to the new home and how well the new home adjusts to the animal. An adoption counselor will be in touch and be available to the adoptive parent during this time. Final In-Home Visit and Finalize Adoption. After the 1 to two week visitation period If the pet and its new family are adapting well and the adoption is agreed upon, the adoption will be finalized and the final papers filled out at this time, Adoption fee is $45.00.
