Adopt with SNIPSA and bring a new family member home!

How it Works

Ready to welcome a new pet into your life? You've come to the right place! SNIPSA is dedicated to find the perfect fit for each of our rescues. Since we are not a standing shelter, each animal resides in a foster home so that they can receive the care and socialization needed to help them transition into yours.

Please browse our adoptable pets and consider placing an application to adopt. Applications are answered in the order they are received within 72 hours. Once your application is approved, the foster parent will reach out to you to coordinate a meet and greet with your new potential family member!

Adoption Fees

Adoption fees vary depending on the type of pet you would like to adopt. Puppies start at $300, adult dogs start at $250, and cats start at $150.

Our adoption fee includes a veterinary exam, microchip, spay/neuter surgery, vaccines, dewormers, fecal, heartworm test (dog), FeLV/FIV test (cat), monthly preventatives, and a complimentary bag of Science Diet. The goal is to provide optimal care to ensure your pet is ready and healthy for its new home.

*Please note: Animals that have received additional non-routine medical treatment have a higher adoption fee.

Pet of the Week: Zoey

Looking for a tiny slice of heaven? Zoey is our favorite little angel. This tiny girl was saved from euthanasia at a local shelter at the ripe age of twelve years old. Then, she lived with a loving owner for several years until they sustained a hip injury, rendering them unable to care for her. Now at 15 years old, Zoey is seeking a home where she can rest her old bones and finish out her golden years.

Zoey has come out of her shell rather quickly in her foster home and likes to follow around her human friends when she isn’t sleeping. Yup–despite her cataracts and stiff legs, Zoey loves to be in the middle of the action! She also appreciates tasty snacks and the occasional play session, though she can be cautious about being picked up. Given time and the opportunity to bond with a new owner, we can see her as the perfect chi-companion. If you’ve got a heart for seniors and a cozy bed to spare, please apply to adopt dear Zoey.

Before vs during The Big Fix! 💫🐾

Saturday, April 12th, was definitely one to remember. We are still waiting on the final count of all the cats and dogs we were able to spay and neuter, but in the meantime we wanted to thank all the staff, veterinarians, vet techs and volunteers who put in long hours and hard work! Not to mention all of our sponsors, donors, Animal Care Services, and Saint Mary’s University for giving us the resources to change the lives of so many animals and pet owners. 🧡 THANK YOU!!
