Terms; please check each box:*

I agree that I will provide a clean and adequate shelter, food, water, preventive health care and veterinary care for my adopted pet.I have received a copy of the adopted animal's veterinarian records.Although SCFOA tries to adopt only healthy animals, SCFOA does not guarantee the health of any animal adopted. I understand that the previous owner and SCFOA make no representations or warranties, expressed or implied, about the adopted animal's temperament and is hereby resolved from any liability for future damages or injuries caused by said animal. I also understand and agree that neither the previous owner nor SCFOA give any guarantees, expressed or implied about the suitability of the animal to the adopter and/or his family.*I agree that the adoption fee helps cover adoption expenses and if the animal is returned, the adoption fee will not be returned.I agree to notify SCFOA if I am unable to keep this pet for any reason.In the unlikely event the animal needs to be re-homed, I agree that Solano County Friends of Animals (SCFOA) must approve of any transfer of ownership of the pet described below at least 10 days in advance of the transfer.I understand that there is a $25 charge for all returned checks.SCFOA partners with local veterinarians to offer you a free well-pet exam within 10 days of adoption when you present your adoption contract. We advise that you have your new pet checked by a veterinarian before introducing him/her to your other pets. This entitles you to an exam only. You will be charged for vaccinations, lab tests or other procedures. Ask a volunteer for participating veterinarians.
