Kenan Varupa Posted April 29, 2018 Author Share Posted April 29, 2018 (edited) Adoption Process So, you have fallen in love with a particular sweetie pie from our photos of Adoptable Pets. What now? Meet & Greet A picture may say a thousand words, but meeting an animal is important before proceeding with adoption paperwork. A meet and greet can tell many things that one needs to know before selecting a pet to adopt. Does there seem to be a good chemistry between us? How do my children interact with this animal? Does he have a temperament and energy level that is a suitable fit for my lifestyle and home? So, come by for a visit and meet all of our furry friends. Still not sure if you’re ready to adopt? See Before You Adopt for tips and considerations. Adoption Application Tell us about yourself. We would like to know as much as we can to determine which pets would be a good match with your home, family, and lifestyle.Remember, we are a completely foster-based rescue group, so each of our adoptable animals lives in a temporary, foster home. As such, we know all the little nuances and details of the pet’s behavior, personality, habits, etc. Decisions about application approval are at the sole discretion of the Directors of Animal Rescue of Tracy. We are committed to finding our pets a successful match in a forever home. You may download a Cat Adoption Application or Dog Adoption Application to fill it out in advance, then bring it with you to the Meet and Greet. Home Study Applications that are qualified to be a good fit for a particular pet may be subject to a home study by authorized representatives of Animal Rescue of Tracy. In general, all dog and special-needs cat applications will be subject to home inspection and observation of the animal in the environment. So, what are we looking for? Compatibility: How does the pet interact with your family in your home? How does the pet interact with existing animals in your home? Safety: Are your fence line and pool area completely secure? Is your home situated against a busy street when you want to adopt one of our little escape artists? Is your property free of dangerous debris, plants, etc? Practicality and Function: How much time will the pet be alone each day? Where will the pet stay when you’re not home? Where and how often will the pet be able to relieve itself? Where will the pet sleep? How will your pet get exercise? For more tips on preparing for a new pet, see Before You Adopt. Transition to the New Home Congratulations! If you are selected to be the proud new parent of a rescued dog or cat, arrangements will be made to finalize contractual details including the collection of adoption fees. A transition date will be set by San Andreas Animal Rescue on which your new pet will come home to stay! Remember, this phase is called “transition” for a reason. It will be a time of adjustment and change for both your household and your new pet. Patience, diligence, and good old fashioned compassion will be key during the transition.Please see After You Adopt for additional tips. Important Notice: Any and all persons who adopt from Animal Rescue of Tracy agree to contact the organization immediately if circumstances change that will make it impossible to care for the animal properly in the long term. Arrangements will be made to have the pet returned to the care of Animal Rescue of Tracy.Within 2 weeks from the adoption date, you decide that your home is not the ideal fit for your new pet, a refund may be given. Refunds are at the discretion of the Directors of Animal Rescue of Tracy. Adoption Fees Dogs: $250 Dog adoption fees include vaccinations, spay/neuter, and microchip Cats: $65 Kittens: $95 Cat and kitten adoption fees include vaccinations and spay/neuter. Top Reasons to Adopt a Pet It’s not just the right thing to do; adoption is a reward. Thinking of adding a pet to your family? Here are ten reasons to adopt your new best friend. 1. Because you'll save a life. Each year, 2.7 million adoptable dogs and cats are euthanized in the United States, simply because too many pets come into shelters and too few people consider adoption when looking for a pet. The number of euthanized animals could be reduced dramatically if more people adopted pets instead of buying them. When you adopt, you save a loving animal by making them part of your family and open up shelter space for another animal who might desperately need it. 2. Because you'll get a great animal. Animal shelters and rescue groups are brimming with happy, healthy pets just waiting for someone to take them home. Most shelter pets wound up there because of a human problem like a move or a divorce, not because the animals did anything wrong. Many are already housetrained and used to living with families. 3. Because it’ll cost you less. Usually when you adopt a pet, the cost of spay/neuter, first vaccinations (and sometimes even microchipping!) is included in the adoption price, which can save you some of the up front costs of adding a new member to your family. Depending on the animal, you may also save on housebreaking and training expenses. 4. Because of the bragging rights. No one needs to see another selfie—unless it’s a selfie of you with the adorable pet you just adopted! Adopt a pet, post those pictures and let the well-earned likes roll in. 5. Because it's one way to fight puppy mills. If you buy a dog from a pet store,online seller or flea market, you’re almost certainly getting a dog from a puppy mill. Puppy mills are factory-style breeding facilities that put profit above the welfare of dogs. Animals from puppy mills are housed in shockingly poor conditions with improper medical care, and are often very sick and behaviorally troubled as a result. The moms of these puppies are kept in cages to be bred over and over for years, without human companionship and with little hope of ever joining a family. And after they're no longer profitable, breeding dogs are simply discarded—either killed, abandoned or sold at auction. These puppy mills continue to stay in business through deceptive tactics — their customers are unsuspecting consumers who shop in pet stores, over the Internet or through classified ads. Puppy mills will continue to operate until people stop supporting them. By adopting a pet, you can be certain you aren't giving them a dime. 6. Because your home will thank you. Many of the pets from shelters and rescues are already housetrained, which means you’re not only saving a pet’s life, you may be saving your rug. Adopting a mature pet not only gives older animals a second chance, it often means introducing them to your family will be much easier. 7. Because all pets are good for your health, but adoptees offer an extra boost. Not only do animals give you unconditional love, but they have been shown to be psychologically, emotionally and physically beneficial to their companions. Caring for a petcan provide a sense of purpose and fulfillment and lessen feelings of loneliness. And when you adopt, you can also feel proud about helping an animal in need! 8. Because adoption helps more than just one animal. Overburdened shelters take in millions of stray, abused, and lost animals every year, and by adopting an animal, you’re making room for others. Not only are you giving more animals a second chance, but the cost of your adoption goes directly towards helping those shelters better care for the animals they take in! 9. Because The Shelter Pet Project makes it easy. You can go to the San Andreas Animal Rescue to find pets near you, of every size, color, temperament and breed. Purebred and mixed breed animals alike are waiting for their forever homes! 10. Because you'll change a homeless animal's whole world. And get a new best friend out of the deal. Seriously, what could be better than that? Edited May 8, 2018 by Kenan Varupa Link to comment
