About the Adoption Program

Each year, Save-A-Pet places hundreds of kittens, puppies, cats and dogs in loving, permanent homes. Our adoption screening process helps us match the right animal to the right home.

We provide the following veterinary care for our adoptable animals:

  •     FIV tests for adult felines over six months old.

  •     Feline leukemia tests for all cats and kittens

  •     Heartworm tests for all dogs and puppies.

  •     All vaccines, including rabies.

  •     All animals are already spayed and neutered.

  •     All animals are flea-treated and wormed.

  •     All animals are microchipped.

What to Expect During Adoption

Have questions? We’re happy to help — ask us anything.

  1. We’ll verify vet records (if applicable) to ensure the health and safety of all pets.

  2. Renters will need confirmation that pets are allowed.

  3. Please allow up to 48 hours while we review your application — this is also a great time to reflect on the long-term commitment of pet ownership.

  4. We’ll reach out if the pet is a good match. If you don’t hear from us, the animal may have been adopted or wasn’t the right fit — your application stays on file for future matches.

  5. After adoption, we’re still here for you with guidance, support, and return options if needed.
