Humane Society Of Concord & Greater Cabarrus Co.
Adoption Policy
Ruth's Memorial - Dog Adoption Facility:
Appointments are encouraged to ensure personalized attention, although walk-ins may also be accommodated. Applications can be conveniently completed either in person at our shelter or online by clicking the purple "Adoption Application" link on this page. Online applications take a minimum of 72 hours to process with the team. Each application is carefully reviewed by our dedicated Adoption Counselors, who then conduct an in-person interview to understand the needs and preferences of both the dog and the applicant to ensure a harmonious and loving match for all involved. Some in-person applications may be processed the same day, meaning you could take your new furry friend home with you on the very day you visit! Please make sure to bring your current veterinarian records and lease information if you rent! Applicants for unaltered dog must live in the Cabarrus/Mecklenburg area.
Adoption Fees: All dogs $200
Princeton's Meow - Cat Adoption Facility
While the public is welcome to visit during open hours, we prioritize the well-being of our cats by requiring preapproval for any adoptions. We encourage all prospective pet parents to apply for preapproval before visiting to streamline the process. The link to the online application for our kitties can be found below. Our online application process allows our Adoption Counselors to thoroughly review each application, typically within 72 hours. Applicants will be promptly notified of their application status. Once approved, you can schedule an appointment to meet your potential new family member and complete the adoption process.
Adoption Fees:
Kittens under 1 year of age: $140
Adults 1 year and up: $125
Applications can be filled out for both facilities on our website, (humanesocietyofconcord.org) please click "Adoption Application."
