Adoption Process

On our website, you’ll find profiles of all the Cats/Dogs waiting for a home. We do our best to provide their personality traits, health information, habits, and backgrounds. If one of them catches your heart, remember their name or ID number— they may be the one waiting just for you.

When you feel ready to start this journey, please complete the Adoption Application Form ( https://forms.gle/1BHgfbp4Jr1rvWrQA)on our website. This is the official first step—and also a meaningful expression of your sincerity. The form will ask for: • Basic personal and household information • Your living environment (housing type, safety features, etc.) • Your daily schedule and caregiving capacity • Previous pet ownership experience • Your expectations and preparation for the animal you wish to adopt If you have any questions while filling it out, our adoption counselors are always here to help. Warm reminder: The application must be filled out online by the applicant personally. No in-person submission is needed at this stage.

After receiving your application, we will carefully review it within 3--7 business days. We look at authenticity, home stability, and whether you and the chosen animal are a good match. Only after your application is approved will we arrange an official meeting with the animal you applied for. This ensures that every meeting happens with care and preparation.

Once approved, we will invite you to meet the animal. A staff member will accompany you to observe comfort, interaction, and initial bonding. Some animals may be shy or nervous due to past experiences, so please be patient—give them the time and space they need. If you are adopting a dog and already have a dog at home. We will arrange a Dog-to-Dog Introduction, a safe and guided meeting to ensure both dogs can coexist peacefully. We observe: • Body language • Stress signals • Compatibility and potential harmony This step is essential for a smooth future life together. Adult Dogs (local) $550 Adult Dogs (transfer) $650 Puppies (local) $600 Puppies (transfer) $700 Cats $225 Kittens $300 There is no tax charged on the adoption fees. Some of the dogs in our care have been transferred in from other organizations and rescue partners. These animals may have a higher adoption fee to help offset the cost of transferring them to us.

Before entering the formal adoption stage, we kindly ask you to provide: At least one valid, unexpored goverment issued ID that includes your address. Examples: • National ID card with address • Driver’s license with address • Government-issued proof of residence This requirement ensures the safety and accountability needed for responsible adoption.

Once all compatibility checks are successfully completed, we will go through the Adoption Agreement with you. It includes: • Basic care responsibilities • A commitment not to abandon, sell, or give away the animal • Our promise to assist you if challenges arise • Our follow-up care and support plan Signing this agreement marks the moment you officially become this animal’s new family.

On the day of handover, we will lovingly place the animal into your care and provide: • Complete health records (vaccinations, deworming, sterilization, medical exams) • Feeding preferences and behavioral notes • A home transition guide • Tips for safety and environment preparation We’ll also share the little things—what they love, what they fear— so you can welcome them with understanding and warmth.

To ensure a smooth transition, we will follow up at: • 7 days (Adjustment check) • 30 days (Stability check) • 90 days (Integration check) You’re always welcome to update us with photos, videos, or stories— or seek help if you ever encounter difficulties. Adoption isn’t an end. It’s the beginning of a beautiful journey.
