Thank you!

For safe interactions,

anyone 17 years old or younger needs to be accompanied by an adult when visiting with an animal.

Adoption Policies & Procedures

 

Adoption is a lifetime responsibility and commitment to your new family member.

  • We advocate for humane treatment of cats and dogs in our care and in our communities.

  • We make a commitment to be there for your family and assist with adjustment(s) and resources.

  • After submitting your short adoption form, we complete a public record search and contact you to schedule a phone consultation to talk about next steps and to guide you each step of the way.

  • Adoption forms are valid for one year after acceptance.
    If we do not contact you, please make sure to check your junk or spam folders.

  • We encourage the entire family to meet with your matched candidates before adopting a new family member.

  • Adoption fees range from $60.00-$75.00 for cats and $100.00-$350.00 for dogs depending on the animal's age and gender.
    We intentionally keep these fees as low as possible, even though they do not fully cover veterinary expenses and housing costs. 

  • We promote and provide assistance for dog and cat spay/neuter surgeries.

  • Rabies vaccinations are required for spay-neuter surgeries.

  •  Adopters must be 21 years old to adopt an HSNEI dog or cat, with exceptions at staff discretion.
