  • Are all of the animals that are available for adoption on Petfinder?
  • Can I adopt a pet if I am under the age of 18?
    • No, your parent or guardian would have to be the legal adopter.
  • Can I bring my dog to the shelter to see the pet that I am going to adopt?
    • No, that would not be a good idea in our shelter.
    • We have only cats, and just bringing the dog there to meet the cat is not necessarily a good way to tell if they will get along.
    • We advise our adopters how to make the proper introductions once you are home with them.
 
  • How do I place an animal in your care?
    • Because we are a NO-Kill shelter, space is very limited and there is a waiting list.  Our waiting list is based on the animal’s need.
  • What should I do if I find a colony of feral cats?
  • How long do you keep strays at your facility before you place them for adoption?
    • We have a quarantine period and then they are placed for adoption if they are healthy.

  • I think my neighbor is being cruel to his pets. What should I do?
    • You need to contact your community’s cruelty investigator.
  • Do you pick up stray animals?
    • No, we simply do not have the manpower or shelter space to do that.
  • Can I check on an animal that I dropped off?
    • That would require permission from our shelter manager. You would have to call ahead: 610-760-9009.
  • I am interested in adopting the animal that I dropped off.
    • That would depend upon the total circumstances and would be at the discretion of our shelter management.

  • Do you put animals “to sleep” after a certain amount of time?
    • No, we are a NO-Kill shelter. The time the animals stay here is not a factor.
