Adoption Process
The process for adopting an animal may take up to an hour or longer in order to get to
know and understand the animal you are bringing into your home for life. The Humane Society & SPCA
of Sonoma County prides itself on successful adoption rates because of the time we spend
with you and your prospective pet upfront. First you must decide what type of animal
is "right" for you. Are you more of a dog or a cat person or are you interested
in a smaller animal like a rabbit, guinea pig or pocket pet? You must have a clear understanding
of yourself, your family and your lifestyle to answer this question correctly. Many people
need several visits before they can make the decision to adopt and we encourage you to
take all the time you need to make your new relationship permanent.
