Effective January 1, 2006, Snowflake Animal Rescue will no longer conduct same-day adoptions.

We encourage anyone interested in adopting from Snowflake to submit a completed on-line application. Once your application is processed and tentatively approved, including reference checks, we will arrange a time for a personal interview. While we process your application you can see the pets we have available by clicking on the appropriate links found on the left-hand side of this page. You are also encouraged to attend our Adoptathons to meet these pets in person or visit our weekly resident cats at the PetsMart Adoption Center in Wake Forest.

Applications submitted at the Adoption Center or Adoptathons will be processed within 5 business days. Companion animals will be released the same day from our Adoptathons only if you have a previously processed and approved application. For further information regarding adoptions call (919) 990-2478, or email us at adoptacat@snowflakerescue.org. We look forward to connecting you with a loving companion that matches your unique lifestyle.

Our adoption fees are $95 for a cat or kitten (or $160 for two!). The adoption fee is payable as cash or personal check. We are unable to process credit card or debit transactions. The fee includes deworming, initial vaccinations, and spay or neuter of your new pet. Cats are tested for Feline Leukemia and FIV.

Scheduled Adoptathons:

• Sunday, June 1st at PetsMart, 11835 Retail Drive, Wake Forest (US1 near HWY 98), 1-4pm
  

• Sunday, June 15th at PetsMart, 11835 Retail Drive, Wake Forest (US1 near HWY 98), 1-4pm

Adopting a friend

We do our best to insure a good match between our pets and their new homes. Therefore, we ask you to fill out an application, interview you and ask many questions about your home environment, your family and your current pets. Please understand that we are not trying to be 'nosy', just trying to help you find a pet that will fit well with your expectations and your lifestyle. We care very much about our little friends, and we know how traumatic it can be for them to go to a new home and then to be returned. We try very hard to make the 'right' match the first time around.

ShelterCare will make a $25 donation to Snowflake for every application for a ShelterCare Pet Insurance Program made thru clicking on this link. Dogs and cats enrolled in a ShelterCare Program do not have to be adopted from Snowflake. If you do adopt from Snowflake, you can get 30 days free insurance by activating a gift policy within 10 days of adoption.
