Adoption Procedure

If you are fully aware of the expenses of responsible animal ownership and are prepared to give an animal a good home for the rest of its life, please ring one of the contact numbers listed in the adjacent column.

Please note that you will be asked to leave a message and a contact telephone number. One of our volunteers will contact you as soon as possible.

As our animals are in private boarding facilities you are unable to visit until you have been issued with a pass and then you must ring to make an appointment. You will be made aware of the opening times when your pass is issued.
