IMPORTANT EVENT NOTES:

  • SPACES ARE LIMITED! To guarantee you can meet your future best friend and family member, we highly encourage all those who wish to attend this event to reserve a time slot. Drop-in’s will be welcome; however we cannot guarantee wait time.
  • Limit of 2 members per household. To be mindful of social distancing protocols and the health & safety of our staff, animals and community, we ask that only 2 members per household attend the adoption event. However, please ensure all household members agree with the adoption of an animal prior to attending the event.
  • Please arrive 10-15 minutes before your scheduled time slot. This will allow you to maximize your 30 minutes so that you can view and interact with the animal you are interested in adopting. Arriving on-time and adhering to our 30-minute appointments also ensure that everyone who reserves an appointment has an equal opportunity to meet their animal.
  • If you hope to adopt a cat or small animal, please bring a pet carrier with you to the event. If you do not have a carrier, you will be required to purchase a take-home carrier from the shelter (while quantities last) in order to take your pet home. Cats and small animals will not be allowed to leave the shelter unless secured in a proper pet carrier.
