ADOPTION
PROCEDURES

This is it. You've given it serious thought, and you're ready to adopt. You're committed to giving a new family for life to one of our lovely furry friends who are just waiting for it. That's great!

Adopting a cat or a dog is indeed a long-term commitment. Their life expectancy can vary from 10 to more than 15 years (in human years)! It is therefore essential to make sure that you will not only be able to afford the financial investment, but also to offer this new companion a living environment that will meet its physical, intellectual and emotional needs.

Learn more about adoption, responsible breeders, stores, and services you should know about before you proceed. This blog post will get you started: Before you get a dog... | Humane Canada

Adoption procedures

Please note that all our adoptions are by appointment only.

  1. Browse the adoption profiles of our animals (cats, dogs or small animals).

  2. If one of our residents catches your eye, fill out the short adoption interest form, making sure to include the animal's name and ID number in the designated field. The form will help us get to know you and aim for the perfect match with the animal.

  3. If your profile corresponds to the one sought for the animal, our team will contact you to make an appointment for an adoption meeting. All of our adoptions are by appointment only. Appointments will be offered on a first come, first served basis, but also based on the needs of the animal. We do not take reservations or create a waiting list.

  4. At your adoption appointment, you will have the opportunity to meet the animal and discuss with one of our counselors about the animal, its needs and the adjustments to be made in order to welcome it into your home safely.

Adoption fees

For cats and dogs, the adoption fee includes spay/neuter surgery, microchip implantation, initial basic vaccinations, an anti-parasite treatment, and a bag of Royal Canin food. We offer a 10-day health guarantee for minor problems, such as a feline respiratory infection.
