NEW! Walk-In Cat Adoption Hours
The Guelph Humane Society now facilitates cat adoptions in-person on Saturdays. During the month of October, join us in shelter on Saturdays from 11:00am to 2:00pm to meet your perfect match!
Want to adopt sooner, or a particular cat catch your eye? Please submit an application online and, if your application is selected, a member of the adoptions team will be in touch to arrange a phone interview.

How to Adopt:
If you’re interested in adopting a pet, view the pets below by clicking on their name. Please ensure you read their adorable description and all their important details. Once you choose a pet that you feel would be a good match for your home, click “Adopt me” from within that animal’s profile. Adoptions at GHS are not processed on a “first come first served” basis. We may accept multiple applications for an animal in an effort to find the most suitable home. Click here for tips on how to submit a strong adoption application.
If you are experiencing technical difficulties or if you have any questions regarding the adoption process, please email: adoptions@guelphhumane.ca or call 519-824-3091 during regular business hours.
