Adoption Day at Petsmart!

[@kamanama3671]

I adopted a cat at Petsmart. They said it was a year and a half old. It ended up being pretty sick. They didn’t know exactly what was wrong. I ended up taking it to a third vet. She was known as the cat whisperer. She told me the cat was 12 years old. And she was just declining. $2000 later I ended up with no cat after a month and a half. Be careful what can’t you pack and who you’re getting it from.

A couple notes, in case people don't know: the adoptions at Petsmart are not run by the store, but are run by local rescues. Different rescues will have different rules, of course, but a reputable rescue will definitely have a form that needs filling out and will do various checks to make sure that the adopters will be good pet parents. The rescue that we have adopted from called our vet and required three references. They also would have contacted our landlord - if we were renters - to make sure we were in a place that allowed pets. Reputable rescues will also want you to get your new family member a vet appointment right away; the rescue will have taken care of important vaccinations and spaying/neutering, but they want your vet to meet your new pet and get a baseline idea of what their health is like. The rescue will usually call a week or two after the adoption just to make sure everyone is settling in okay. Finally, many rescues will not let you take your new friend home on the day your submit your paperwork (because they need to check references and such); so if you know you want to adopt, but just aren't sure of which kitty or kitties you want, ask if you can fill out the paperwork ahead of time and just leave the name of the cat blank. This allows them to "pre-approve" you so you have a better chance of picking out a kitty and taking them home that day. :) Happy adopting!

As the owner of a cute black cat, I hope the black cat gets adopted. They are so sweet.

I love volunteering to help shelter animals. Even just going there once a week does so much for both them and you

We adopted our black kitty from PetsMart. One of the best decisions my wife and I made.

13 years ago I adopted a cat from Petsmart. She is my pretty girl and loves her food. 😂 I have 2 others that showed up one day that are now indoor cats and a fourth cat that lives outside but she is fierce!

Fur Angels Animal Sanctuary always has adoption at Petco and many other pet stores. The woman that is in charge of it, I used to help her out a lot. It was so much fun being able to play with the animals and watching them get adopted.
