Adoption Process

## 🐾 How Our Adoption Process Works

Bringing home your new best friend is easy!

**1️⃣ Submit an Adoption Application**
Complete an adoption application, and our staff will review it as soon as possible.

**2️⃣ Application Review**
Once your application has been reviewed, we'll contact you to let you know if it has been:

* ✅ Approved
* ⏳ Pending (if we need additional information)
* ❌ Declined (we'll explain why)

**3️⃣ Meet Your Potential New Family Member**
If you're pre-approved, you'll have the opportunity to take the dog or cat out of their kennel to spend some one-on-one time together and make sure it's the perfect match for both of you.

**4️⃣ Complete the Adoption**
When you've decided to adopt, we'll complete all of the adoption paperwork during your visit. Please bring a valid photo ID.

**5️⃣ Celebrate! **
Before you head home, we'll snap an adoption photo, answer any questions you have, and send you and your new furry family member off to begin your next adventure together.

❤️ We can't wait to help you find your perfect companion!
