Adoption Promotions at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary
Fee Waived Adoptions are Happening throughout August!
All August long, we’re joining shelters nationwide for Clear the Shelters—and that means waived adoption fees for every pet at Best Friends locations! At the Sanctuary, that includes all species: dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, pigs, and more. So if you’ve been thinking about adoption, now’s the time to find your new best friend.
To meet a specific pet, please email adoptions@bestfriends.org to make an appointment.

Getting to the Sanctuary
The Sanctuary entrance, located at 5001 Angel Canyon Road, is about five miles north of Kanab on the right side of Highway 89, between mile markers 69 and 70.
Meeting Adoptable Pets
We have a few places where you can just drop on in and meet adoptable pets (no appointment needed!)
The Welcome Center
(Open 8 a.m. - 6 p.m.)
Turn right (east) when you see the big Best Friends sign. It’s about a 1.5-mile drive to the Best Friends Welcome Center (on your left). Just come on in and one of our friendly ambassadors can help you sign up for a tour or meet adoptable pets!
The Adoption Hub
(Open 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.)
Continue straight on highway 89 past the south entrance (do not turn at the orange sign! Keep going another 1.5 miles.) Turn right at the north entrance. In .6 miles, turn right onto Rhonda Rd. The Adoption Hub will be on your left.
Sinjin's Place
(Open 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.)
Our newest and hippest place at Cat World to chill with some of the friendliest felines (who are all adoptable!) Come spend time with the cats at Sinjins!
Continue straight on highway 89 past the south entrance (do not turn at the orange sign! Keep going another 1.5 miles.) Turn right at the north entrance. In one (1) mile, turn right onto Benton St. Go .7 miles and follow signs for Cat World. Sinjin's is on your right.
