Fort Lauderdale, FL
A long-established nonprofit humane society in Fort Lauderdale placing cats and dogs across Broward County, with veterinary and community programmes alongside adoptions.
Fees vary based on the age and number of animals adopted; includes spay/neuter, flea/tick treatment, vaccinations, and a wellness check.
Consider landlord approval, other household members, costs, other pets, and time commitment. Puppies and kittens are reserved for in-state adoptions only.
Submit a pre-adoption application (separate forms for Florida vs. out-of-state residents), prepare for pet ownership, pay the adoption fee, select your pet, then bring your new pet home.
Estimated by applying the AVMA's 2024 national cat-ownership rate (32.1% of households) to the county's real household count from the Census Bureau — a national rate applied locally, not a local survey. Population and housing figures are from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey.
Fees vary based on the age and number of animals adopted; includes spay/neuter, flea/tick treatment, vaccinations, and a wellness check.
