Adoption Process

Mending Fences’ adoption process is easy and begins with you completing an adoption application. The application asks general questions related to pet ownership in order for us to get to know you and your family better. We then review the application and if approved we will arrange for you and your family to meet the pet you have expressed interest in. We highly recommend bringing your existing furry family members to the first meeting as it is a great opportunity to make sure everyone will get a long. Please note, most of our pets will require a home visit depending on certain circumstances and sometimes we work with other rescue partners in order to get this requirement fulfilled out of our local area. Home visits are done in order to make sure your yard is secure and or to assist you with puppy proofing if you are adopting a puppy. Also, if you rent your home, we require verification from your landlord that pets are allowed and the pet you are adopting is an acceptable pet to the property owner. Once the approved application and home visit if applicable are completed, we will proceed to completing the Pet Adoption Agreement and collecting the adoption fee. Keep in mind, our adoptions fees vary so please inquire about our fees for each pet. Here at Mending Fences our job is to assist you with finding a family pet that will fit in with your family and life style in order to assure a positive, successful adoption and forever home for the pet. We are grateful you have chosen to consider making one of our fur kids in need a member of your family. We look forward to helping you make the adoption process rewarding for our pets and your family. Meet & Greet opportunities are available by appointment. Please message us at mendingfencesca@gmail.com to inquire about any of our fur kids. Mending Fences has cats and kittens available at our PetSmart adoption center located at 615 W. Herndon Avenue, Clovis, CA, on the corner of Willow and Herndon. Stop by during regular business hours to meet our sweet kitties.
