Thank you for your interest in adopting a companion from Rescue OKLA Animal Society & Sanctuary. We are thrilled to assist you in finding your next best friend. We take our adoption process seriously, understanding the challenging situations these animals have faced. We want to make sure they never end up in similar situations. Our adoption fees are as follows: Dogs: $185 Cats: $85. These fees play a vital role in supporting all animals in our rescue. They directly contribute to covering the costs associated with their care, including providing food and veterinary services. All animals adopted out will be spayed/neutered, microchipped and up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations. Dogs are tested for heartworms if over the age of 7 months and current on heartworm preventatives. Cats and Kittens will have been tested for Feline Aids (FIV) and Feline Leukemia (FeLV). Please be aware that we do not facilitate same-day adoptions or have an on-site adoption facility. While your enthusiasm for a particular animal is truly appreciated, we diligently assess every potential adopter and rescue animal to ensure the best possible match for their future homes. It's important to understand that there might be instances where we communicate that a specific animal may not be the most suitable fit. We don't take applications on a first serve basis, instead we look for the best fit for each adoption. We strive to ensure the perfect match between each animal and and their adoptive home, seeking a forever family for every companion.
How our Adoption Process Works:
Submit an Adoption Application: Please allow 3-5 business days for us to process your application and check all references. Please note that we require all other pets in the home to be spayed/neutered and up to date on vaccinations and heartworm preventatives.
Home Visit: To ensure the safety and well-being of our rescue animals, we require a virtual home visit as part of the adoption process. This step allows us to confirm that your home environment is suitable for the specific needs of the pet you are adopting. It also gives us an opportunity to discuss any questions or concerns you may have about integrating your new pet into your home. During the visit, we will review areas of your home where the pet will spend most of their time, ensuring they have a safe and comfortable space. This process helps us match you with the right pet and sets everyone up for a successful adoption experience. Virtual visits are conducted via Zoom or FaceTime or another platform if necessary. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us make thoughtful and responsible placement decisions for our rescue animals.
Adoption Day: An adoption or foster coordinator will coordinate with you for an in-person meet and greet. After a successful meet and greet, and it is determined to be a good fit for both animal and potential adopter, you will sign the adoption contract and adoption fee will be paid. Please note, all adoption fees are nonreturnable.
