THIS APPLICATION IS FOR CAT OR KITTEN ADOPTION ONLY I am interested in adopting a cat or kitten

Thank you for your interest in one of the lovable companions at Sunny Sky's Animal Rescue. We understand this is a big decision for you. Pet ownership is a serious, long-term commitment. You must be 21 years of age to apply to adopt a pet. This application is a pre-approval application, it is the first step in the adoption process. We are a private rescue and our adoption process is an in-depth process that may include; landlord consent, proof of homeownership, 2 personal references, a veterinary reference and in rare cases a home visit. We do require that all members of the home including children and pets in the home meet the dog before adoption is finalized. We will also need proof of address and a copy of a valid ID emailed to application@sunnyskysshelter.org. Applications will not be reviewed unless this information is sent. It is our goal to be thorough to make sure adopters are knowledgeable, capable, and willing to accept the moral, physical, and financial responsibilities of owning a pet. We also want to make sure your home will offer the best environment for the life of the pet. Filling out this application does not guarantee you will be approved to adopt through our rescue. We will notify you via email if we have further questions or have reached a decision. The adoption fee includes: spay or neuter procedure, initial vaccinations, microchip*, preventative flea treatment and de-wormer. Adoption fees are nonrefundable and if for any reason you do not wish to keep the pet you adopted you MUST bring it back to Sunny Sky's Animal Rescue- and no other shelter. This is not negotiable! Animals adopted from our shelter are not to be given as gifts, cannot be sold, traded or given away to another person or facility. Per this contract, you will be fined $500 if the pet you adopt from our shelter is sold, traded or given away. This is in conjunction with any and all remedies available to us as outlined in the adoption packet. We are a no-kill shelter and cannot ensure if the animal is given away it will not be euthanized. We do not keep medical records of adopted pets on site. You will be responsible for keeping the medical file of your newly adopted pet safe and in the event new copies are needed there will be a charge of $25. By checking agree below, I acknowledge I have read, understand, and agree to the Sunny Sky’s Animal Rescue policies described above. ***NOTE*** PLEASE DO NOT LIST SPECIFIC NAMES OF ANIMALS YOU WISH TO ADOPT. THIS IS A GENERIC PRE APPROVAL APPLICATION ONLY. agree no, I do not agree

To ensure that our animals never end up in a kill-shelter, Sunny Sky's will be listed with the microchip company for the life o the animal. If your adopted pet is recovered by us, we will make every effort to contact you using the information provided on this application. If your information changes (address, phone) please make sure to notify the shelter with the updates.

Thank you for filling out our preliminary application. This will allow us to pre screen potential adopters and help us match pets with families. You can help speed up the process by calling your references (both vet and personal) to let them know we will be calling them to ask a few questions, please double check you have included phone numbers for both your vet and personal reference. Unfortunately we will only be able to make 2 attempts to call your references, if we are unable to reach them your application will not be processed and you will have to resubmit your application. If you would like to add hours for your reference availability please do so. Please make sure if you rent that you have included a phone number for your landlord and that supplemental documents (proof of address, photo ID ) have been emailed to application@sunnyskysshelter.org, applications without this email will not be considered. This process should take less than 3 days. After the initial screening you will visit the shelter, where our volunteers will take you through to see our available pets. Thank you so much for your interest in our adoptable pets. Please check Yes below to indicate you have read and understand the pre screen process yes no
