It is important to understand the background of each animal before adoption because they may have been through a difficult experience, requiring extra training, time to settle in, and most importantly, patience.

If you are interested in adopting an animal from the shelter, you should fill out an Animal Enquiry form to provide more details about yourself and your lifestyle. If multiple requests are received for one animal, the most suitable home will be chosen to match the animal to a new owner.

If your application is successful, you will be invited for a first meeting with the animal to see how you get along. Subsequent meetings may follow, and you can introduce other pets as required to ensure compatibility.

The overall goal of the adoption process at the animal shelter is to ensure that each animal is found the right home for their lifetime, making sure they are matched with a suitable owner for a forever home.
