Adoptable Pets in Texas

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?

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.

I have 4 kittens that need a home or foster home. They are 4-5 weeks old. I had been feeding the feral mother for several months as well as other ferals. She brought the kittens to me on 08/04/2022 and died shortly after. I have been caring for the kittens in my garage since then (partly open for access), but I cannot continue to give them the care they need and deserve. They are eating regular cat food which they readily enjoy. They like being handled and talked to. They even enjoy being cleaned as they are messy eaters. They all have their eyes open and navigate on their own. They get along well with their siblings and the other ferals that come to eat and drink water. Please help me and these kittens!

i've socialized and fostered feral kittens as an individual for many years but had to take some time off when i got sick several years ago. i'm happy to say that i'm able to be back at it again with currently 9 little ragamuffins from 3 different litters (3 already have Forever Homes!). The thing is, i now live on SS Disability and money is tight, paycheck to paycheck and vet bills are draining me (my vet office changed ownership and now will only work with groups). i was hoping that there might be a rescue group near me (Irving/Grand Prairie border) that would be willing to help me with these sweeties, and i can maybe foster for from here on. i'm home 24/7 and have experience and no problem with caring for neonates if that helps. Please email me at [email protected] if you know of any group willing to help me and allow me to help them in return. Blessings, Love, Light, Laughter and Purrs ~stayce rene` morris Iving

I desperately need to rehouse a 8 month old female cat that I adopted. She is fully vetted and fixed. She is too much. She plays super rough and will pick on my eldest dog ( without harm ). She is a cute and sassy Calico we call Chloe. She is super loving when she is tired. 682-247-4123 Holly

1. Feral Cat TNR Program

Many communities are embracing Trap, Neuter, Release programs (TNR) to improve animal welfare, reduce death rates, and meet obligations to public welfare.

2. High-Volume, Low-Cost Spay/Neuter

Low cost, high volume spay/neuter will quickly lead to fewer animals entering the shelter system, allowing more resources to be allocated toward saving lives.

3. Rescue Groups

An adoption or transfer to a rescue group frees up scarce cage and kennel space, reduces expenses for feeding, cleaning, killing, and improves a community's rate of lifesaving. In an environment of millions of dogs and cats killed in shelters annually, rare is the circumstance in which a rescue group should be denied an animal.

4. Foster Care

Volunteer foster care is crucial to No Kill. Without it, saving lives is compromised. It is a low cost, and often no cost, way of increasing a shelter's capacity, improving public relations, increasing a shelter's public image, rehabilitating sick and injured or behaviorally challenged animals, and saving lives.

5. Comprehensive Adoption Programs

Adoptions are vital to an agency's lifesaving mission. The quantity and quality of shelter adoptions is in shelter management's hands, making lifesaving a direct function of shelter policies and practice. In fact, studies show people get their animals from shelters only 20% of the time. If shelters better promoted their animals and had adoption programs responsive to the needs of the community, including public access hours for working people, offsite adoptions, adoption incentives, and effective marketing, they could increase the number of homes available and replace killing with adoptions. Contrary to conventional wisdom, shelters can adopt their way out of killing.

6. Pet Retention

While some of the reasons animals are surrendered to shelters are unavoidable, others can be prevented-but only if shelters are willing to work with people to help them solve their problems. Saving animals requires communities to develop innovative strategies for keeping people and their companion animals together. And the more a community sees its shelters as a place to turn for advice and assistance, the easier this job will be.

7. Medical and Behavior Programs

In order to meet its commitment to a lifesaving guarantee for all savable animals, shelters need to keep animals happy and healthy and keep animals moving through the system. To do this, shelters must put in place comprehensive vaccination, handling, cleaning, socialization, and care policies before animals get sick and rehabilitative efforts for those who come in sick, injured, unweaned, or traumatized.

8. Public Relations/Community Involvement

Increasing adoptions, maximizing donations, recruiting volunteers and partnering with community agencies comes down to one thing: increasing the shelter's exposure. And that means consistent marketing and public relations. Public relations and marketing are the foundation of all a shelter's activities and their success. To do all these things well, the shelter must be in the public eye.

9. Volunteers

Volunteers are a dedicated "army of compassion" and the backbone of a successful No Kill effort. There is never enough staff, never enough dollars to hire more staff, and always more needs than paid human resources. That is where volunteers come in and make the difference between success and failure and, for the animals, life and death.

10. Proactive Redemptions

One of the most overlooked areas for reducing killing in animal control shelters are lost animal reclaims. Sadly, besides having pet owners fill out a lost pet report, very little effort is made in this area of shelter operations. This is unfortunate because doing so-primarily shifting from passive to a more proactive approach-has proven to have a significant impact on lifesaving and allow shelters to return a large percentage of lost animals to their families.

11. A Compassionate Director

The final element of the No Kill equation is the most important of all, without which all other elements are thwarted-a hard working, compassionate animal control or shelter director not content to regurgitate tired cliches or hide behind the myth of "too many animals, not enough homes." Unfortunately, this one is also oftentimes the hardest one to demand and find.
