Fresno’s homeless pet population has reached critical levels and the Valley’s public shelters are tragically overcrowded. Fresno Humane Animal Services is committed to playing a key role in the safety net for homeless animals by coordinating with reputable 501(c)3 animal rescues across the state and beyond. Each month, hundreds of animals are transferred out of the shelter and into the safety of private rescue partners. These independent rescues are able to give more individual care and attention to animals in need, expand their opportunities for re-homing, and clear the way for other stray pets entering our shelter system. We encourage the public to support these local animal rescues through adoption, donation, and volunteer work.
Please fill out our adoption survey so we may better assist you in finding the perfect fit for your home. If there’s a specific dog or cat you’re interested in, be sure to include its name or ID number. After submitting your survey, you’ll be contacted by our adoption team to schedule an in-person or virtual meet-up! Our adoption fee for dogs is only $100, and $65 for cats. Every adoption includes the following: Spay / Neuter; Microchip (with Registration); DAPP / FVRCP Vaccine; Rabies Vaccine; Flea / Tick Treatment; Free Vet Visit
