Adoption Process

At our Adoption Center, you will have an opportunity to meet and visit with your potential new companion in person. Spend as much time as you desire getting to know an animal. You may review specially developed behavior and health profiles, and lifestyle considerations on each of our adoption animals. Adoption counselors will work with you to help find that perfect pet, but bear in mind that this may often require more than one visit. Adoption counselors are here to answer all your questions and review important information with you. They can help you decide what size, age, breed and temperament will most successfully meet your expectations. They will review information about your pet's adjustment to his or her new home, housetraining, health concerns, vaccinations, nutrition, training, grooming, etc. Because adopting an animal is a family decision, please bring your entire family, including current resident dogs (if you are adopting a dog), to meet your potential companion. Please leave your resident cats safely at home. If you are interested in adopting a friend for your resident rabbit, guinea pig or rat please call the Adoption Center before you come in so that we can schedule a time for you to bond your resident pet with a potential new friend. If you need pet supplies of any kind - food, dishes, leashes, toys, flea & tick products, grooming supplies, litter -- you will find everything you need at Animal Outfitters, our on-campus pet supply store. You receive a 20% discount on purchases for one week after you adopt your pet. The entire adoption process can be time consuming. But this time is well invested when you consider that your pet will live with you for up to 15 years or more. We ask for your patience and cooperation in the joyful process of bringing pets and people together.
