What to expect on adoption day
Be prepared for the big day
Today will be one of your final meetings, with the adoption afterwards. We will have already emailed you the animal's preferences and requirements so you can buy everything you need in advance.
When you get here, you'll meet with one of our Rehoming Team in reception to go through the adoption pack – this includes the behaviour assessment, medical history, feeding guidelines, vaccination dates, insurance and microchip information. This takes around 20 minutes.
You'll then pay the adoption fee.

If you want a collar tag, we can engrave one for you in return for a donation.
For cats, we'll take your carrier to the cattery to collect. For dogs, we'll take your collar and harness to be fitted and walk them up to meet you.
We'd love to take a farewell photo for our team and social media (with your permission). Then, we'll help them into your car and send them on their way!
