If you have been thinking about welcoming a new cat or dog to your family, the holiday season is a magical time to adopt. Imagine the surprise on your child or loved one’s face when they open the door to discover that Santa’s elves brought a special furry delivery.

  1. Visit and view the profiles of adoptable pets
  2. Arrange an in-person or virtual meet-and-greet
  3. Finalize your adoption between December 17 and 23
  4. Schedule your new pet’s delivery for Christmas Eve or Christmas Day
