Forever Families Wanted

Have you met Cinnamon? Well my friends, it's too late. Cinnamon has a new forever family and will be going home in just a day or two. We are really excited for him. We had 4 adoptions today. Woohoo! There is a lot of work that goes into each adoption.

First our staff help the new family find the 'just right' match. After they make the match, then they begin the paperwork phase.

Next, the family completes the adoption application (some have already completed one via our website www.petsforpeople.org)

The staff begin the process of doing what is called a 'vet check'. This is where they call the family's vet and make sure any previous/current pets of the family have been well cared for as well as preventative care.

Sometimes landlords are called for permission. Sometimes we have to check out the family to make sure they are prepared to welcome a new family member into their home.

If all checks out... an appointment is made with the clinic to have our furry friend spayed or neutered and then it's time for the new family to go home together.

The whole process may take 2-3 days but our staff works to complete the task as quickly as possible so our new family can begin their new lives together.

Did you hear it??? That's the bell ringing again... another friend has been adopted!
