Adoption process

1. Complete the Adoption Application in its entirety. 2. Once we receive the application, all references will be checked, including personal and veterinary references. Please make sure to notify your references that we will be contacting them. 3. Following reference check approval, we will schedule a home visit (in-person or virtually). This is an additional step we take to ensure the home is the right fit for our rescue pets. We will then schedule a meet and greet with the potential adopter and their other animals to meet the cat or dog. Please note that if you live outside of a 25 mile radius from the foster, a $20 fee will be required to cover expenses involved with transportation. 4. Once the application is approved, arrangements will be made to get the cat or dog to the new home/adopter. An “Adoption Agreement” must then be executed as well as the “Verification of Government Issued Photo Identification”. We are a licensed rescue under the NC Department of Agriculture and the Photo ID is a requirement through their policies. 5. Adoption fee will be due at time of transfer of the cat or dog to the adopter unless other arrangements have been made and confirmed.
