Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.

The Animal Adoption Foundation has partnered with Petco and will be conducting onsite adoptions at least once a month from the Fairfield Petco with other locations to be announced. We will be looking for volunteers to help staff these adoption events. Please contact the shelter at 513-737-PETS if you are interested in helping.
