A few times each month we pick out several
of our shelter pets, give them a good scrubbing in the tub or extra
brushing, and go out on the town to look for good homes.
Anyone wanting to adopt a pet from one of our satellite
adoptions is asked to fill out an application. Pets are not allowed
to be taken home that same day. Instead, we'll ask you to give us
a call on the following business day. We do this so that you have
some time to think about it without having to hurry and make a decision
that day, and to allow us time to review applications for approval.
If we both agree that this is the pet for you, then we'll set up
a convenient time for you to pick up your new furry friend from our
shelter.
You can read more about our adoption process on
our Adoptions page. Call Karen at
913.596.1000 ext. 13 or send an e-mail if
you'd like more info on a particular event.
Come on out and meet our wonderful pets who are
all looking for good homes!
