Adopters must fill out an application/questionaire before being approved to adopt. If approved, they pay a $90 fee that covers the spay/neuter, up to date vaccines, dewormer, flea tx, heartworm tx for dogs, and an FIV/leukmia test for cats or a heartworm test for dogs. They must sign a contract that they will follow our requirements (dogs not to be kept on a chain, cats not to be declawed and must live indoors only). If the adopters choose not to keep the pet for any reason, it must be returned to us.
Our Mission
The Tennessee Humane Animal League is a 501(c)3 organization devoted to the placement of homeless or surrendered animals through The Pet Placement Center (PPC). The PPC survives entirely on donations and fundraising activities. We are the oldest no-kill animal adoption center in Hamilton County. The PPC is a private adoption center and does not do animal control or do animal pick ups. Once an animal comes to the Pet Placement Center it will remain safe with us until it is adopted into a responsible permanent home. Our mission is to reduce animal suffering by promoting intelligent animal care through education and example, to find responsible homes for lost or abandoned animals or for those pets whose owners can no longer keep them, to promote spaying or neutering of dogs and cats in order to reduce and control the millions of unnecessary and unwanted animal births, and to emphasize responsible guardianship which includes proper and decent feeding, available water, shelter, necessary shots and exercise.
