We keep an updated list of all cats and dogs (Kittens and puppies too!), here on PetFinder. It can change daily, so please check back often. They also have a great tool on the website to help match you with the right pet (Even if it's not with us)!
You can ALSO try out our "Foster" program. If you're interested in giving that a try - use this form;
We ALWAYS need people willing to foster, even
if it's a short period of time. Since we do not have a physical facility, we depend on other caring individuals to make room in homes and their hearts! If you can provide a loving home fora pet in need, please fill out this form. Thank you!
We have many wonderful pets available for adoption. As we currently do not have a shelter; all of them are housed with foster families where they are fully socialized and acclimated to household living. We also indicate any experience the animal has had with children and other pets on the information posted. We use an updated list on PetFinder with images.
Adoption Policy
Join us for our exciting Adoption Events at Petsmart in Sierra Vista, where you can meet some adorable pets looking for their forever homes! Sometimes, we even showcase a few delightful cats in the back of the store at any given time. If you spot a furry friend on PetFinder that catches your eye, we’ll happily arrange a private meet and greet for you, including a home visit to see if you and the pet are a perfect match! Remember, all of our cats are indoor-only companions, and while they are spayed/neutered and micro-chipped, keeping them safe from outdoor dangers is a must!
There ARE occasional cicumstances in which we may be in need of an outdoor space for a community cat or Barn Cat due to specific needs of that individual pet. If this is what you're looking for, please let us know right away so that we can meet your needs.
For our canine friends, we want to ensure they have a fantastic space to play, so a fenced-in yard is ideal, but smaller homes can work too, depending on the dog and your unique situation!
