How did you hear about Headed For Furever?*
Is there anything else you would like to tell us that you think would be important when considering your application?
Please read and sign below: Many factors determine which applicant will be matched with a particular pet. If you are not able to adopt a pet today, it does not mean that you are not considered a good pet owner or that your home is not acceptable. Our goal is to place all animals into homes that will best suit their individual needs. Please ask for clarification if you have any questions.

I understand that if an animal has not been altered (spayed/neutered) by the time that they are able to go home, this transitional period called a "foster to adopt." As a "foster to adopt" adopter, you must follow all foster responsibilites until the animal has been spayed/neutered. The day the animal has been spayed/neutered is considered the official adoption day. The adoption is finalized with the signing of the adoption agreement. Until the adoption agreement has been signed, the adoption is not official.

I understand that spaying/neutering is not optional and until the animal has been spayed/neutered and the adoption agreement has been signed, they are owned by HFF.
I have completed this application truthfully and fully understand the adoption process.
