Process:
-
(1) Meet with the animal and talk with Adoption Counselors
(2) Fill out an application
(3) Understand that several applicants may be interested in the animal and it can only go into one home. Almost Home Foundation makes the decision with the best interest of the animal in mind. A decision to place the animal in someone else's home in no way implies that your home would not be a wonderful home for one of our animals. We are merely trying to make the best decision for the particular animal.
(4) Talk with the Adoption Coordinator. Please realize that the final decision to place the animal is based on the Adoption Coordinator and at times, Board members.
(5) Understand that in the best interest of the animal, we require kittens to be adopted in pairs unless there is a companion animal of a similar age at home.
(6) We expect our placements to be lifetime commitments. We cannot condone a "disposable" pet theory. If you must give up your animal, you must return the animal to Almost Home Foundation.
