Adopt an animal
The health of our employees, your families, and that of the animals in our care are a priority for the SPCA Roussillon. Considering the extraordinary situation in which we are living, our adoption procedure and the physical layout of the shelter have been adjusted in order to control the traffic and reduce the risk of contamination.
If you are returning from abroad, have been in contact with someone who has contracted COVID-19, have symptoms of the flu or are at risk of contracting the virus, we ask you to please refrain from coming to the shelter . Thank you for your usual collaboration!
Before all else: adopting an animal is a decision worth considering.
- Is everyone in your household, including your pets, ready to welcome a new companion home?
- An animal needs daily care and attention for its entire lifespan. Have you considered the commitment that this represents?
***
1. See the profile of available animals and fill out an application form on our website
2. Complete a telephone interview
A member of our adoption team will contact you as soon as possible to conduct a telephone interview. Depending on your profile, we will help you find the ideal companion among our available animals.
* We receive a very large quantity of applications. They will be addressed according to the order of reception. For dog adoptions, only the selected candidates will be contacted.
3. Schedule a visit at the shelter
Once your application has been approved, you will be invited to make an appointment to come and meet the animals at the shelter.
* At this stage, no animal reservation is possible until the adoption is confirmed in order to maximize the chances of placing our animals in good families.
4. Complete the adoption
We will proceed to the adoption at the shelter and you will go home with your new companion!
Please note that you must wear a mask during your adoption visit at the shelter. We reserve the right to refuse access to anyone not wearing a mask, for the safety of all.
You will have to pay the adoption fees and buy a bag of food for your new pet (cat and dog) in our shop. Card payments are preferable (Interac, Visa, Mastercard).
The animal must also leave the shelter safely, in a pet carrier (cat, exotic animal) or on a leash (dog). You can purchase these items in our shop, as well as other basic accessories (litter, litter trays, etc.)
