Courtesy Posting: Pet Personality Profile

If you have already filled out the Owned Animal History and Personality Profile as part of the Rehoming request through CMHS, you do not need to submit this too!
This program will post your pet to our website to collect adoption applications which we will send to you via your email. It will be at your discretion to contact the applicant and determine a private adoption fee - we will not post any of your information online or provide your information to applicants.

There is a $10 service fee per pet for this program to post your pet on our website. This checkout will be sent to your cellphone to be paid quick and easy - no need to come down to the shelter! Your pet will not be posted until this payment is received.

If you are needing to rehome multiple animals, please fill out a personality profile for each pet. We will not be able to post your animal without a personality profile and photo(s).

Please make sure to provide as much information as possible so we can best assist your animals transition to a new home.

This is NOT a request to surrender your pet to the shelter. If you are needing to surrender your pet to CMHS for rehoming, the shelter operates by appointment only. If you are needing to make an appointment to surrender your pet, please follow these links:

When writing a profile for your pet who needs a new home, you might be tempted to share all the reasons why you are rehoming your pet or share all the “negative” information up front. Not necessary! Always be honest but always remain positive. Think of the personality profile like your pet’s resume and try to put their best paw forward!

It’s important to remember that what might be negative to you may not matter to others. For example, a dog who does not like cats might make a perfect pet for someone with a cat allergy! Also, remember that the word “children” has a different meaning to everyone. Someone might consider an 18-year-old a “child” and see “no children” as a reason they cannot adopt, but your pet might only need a home without toddlers. Use the profile to showcase your pet, and then discuss more details with a potential adopter when they call.

Here are some tips to keep your profile positive!
- Needs a lot of exercise... "Will make a great running buddy!"
- Is aggressive towards children... "Would do great with a mature family"
- Needs a lot of attention... "Loves to be around people"
- Doesn't get along with cats/dogs... "Would love to be the center of attention"
Please write a biography describing all the great things about your pet and what kind of home they are looking for to help them find a new family. Be sure to include their personality and favorite activities! Please be as thorough as possible as this will be copied and pasted to their online profile. *
This is what will show up online on the website for their adoption profile!
