The Animal Rescue Foundation of Southeastern Pennsylvania is a nonprofit 501c3 organization dedicated to saving unwanted and forgotten pets in high-kill shelters. We hope to save as many animals as possible from euthanasia, and find them permanent loving homes. We are an all-volunteer organization that utilizes a foster home network so that no rescued animals have to spend unnecessary time in a shelter. ARF-SEPA fosters have the amazing opportunity to save dogs and cats that are at risk of euthanasia. Rescued pets receive complete veterinary care and reside with a foster family until adopted into a permanent, loving home! We are a non-profit organization that relies solely on your generous donations!
1. Potential adopters see below for options to request an application and then send it back completed via email. 2. ARF's email manager will review the application for approval then send off to pets current foster home. 3. The foster home reviews applications and selects the application that best fits the animal. 4. The foster home contacts the applicant to let them know the application is being processed. 5. An ARF volunteer, usually the foster home, contacts the vet reference (if applicable). After positive references a meet and greet can be set up. 6. After a successful meet and greet, a home visit is scheduled with the applicant. 7. Upon a successful home visit, an adoption can take place. This consists of completing an adoption contract, paying the adoption fee, and taking over as the animal’s caregiver. All completed applications that come into ARF will be notified when it is received. We are a band of volunteers and work as quickly as possible, your patience during this process is appreciated! At any point, if an application is not compatible with the adoptable animal the applicant will be notified by an ARF volunteer and another application will be processed as described above based on the best fit for the animal. For high demand animals an ARF volunteer will contact applicants to let them know that there are several applications to be reviewed. At this time ARF may suggest other available animals that may be a better fit for that applicant. ARF has the right to decline applications based on the animal's best interests.
