If you see an animal you are interested in visiting (see animals available for adoption) AND (see more animals available for adoption), please email us at info@mappar.org just to make sure that animal is still available. Meanwhile, print out the adoption application .pdf. (PLEASE USE ADOPTION APPLICATION FOR FOSTERING.)

In addition to the above pre-filled (by you) adoption application, you will need you to bring with you:

If you own your home:

• Proof of home ownership. A mortgage statement or water bill.
• Current vaccination records for any pets already in the household and/or name and phone number of veterinarian.
• For cats and small animals: A carrier, if you plan to take your pet home that day.
• All family members who live in the home.

If you rent:

• Proof of landlord approval for pets (a copy of your lease agreement) and/or landlord's phone number.
• Current vaccination records for any pets already in the household and/or name and phone number of veterinarian.
• For cats and small animals: A carrier, if you plan to take your pet home that day.
• All family members who live in the home.

The Process:

• Look for your new friend on our website, make an appointment to see them.
• Meet with an adoption counselor to discuss the type of animal you are looking for.
• Fill out an adoption application (download now, print and mail or make appointment and bring with you).
• Select which animal(s) you are interested in.
• Meet with the animal(s) you are interested in.
• Request a cat test (if applicable - if you are adopting a dog and have cats at home).
• For cats, if we've been able to check with your vet and landlord (if applicable) you may be able to take your new pet home that day!
• For dogs, we ask that you make a second visit to take your pet home
