Adopting

Fees, requirements & process

Requirements

Adoptions are by appointment only with approved applicants. Compatibility screening and application approval are required prior to scheduling an adoption meeting.

How it works

Motley Zoo operates as a foster-based rescue rather than a walk-in shelter, meaning animals reside in foster homes. Prospective adopters submit an application (available for cats and dogs in multiple languages). After compatibility screening and pre-approval, an adoption meeting is scheduled by appointment. The adoption meeting serves as the final step to finalize the match.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I visit Motley Zoo to meet adoptable cats and dogs in person without an appointment?

No. Motley Zoo is a foster-based rescue rather than a traditional animal shelter. Adoptable animals live in private foster homes, not at a central kennel facility, so meetings are scheduled by appointment only with pre-approved applicants.

Are adoption applications available in languages other than English?

Yes. Motley Zoo offers adoption applications in Spanish, Chinese, Russian, and Greek upon request by emailing adopt@motleyzoo.org.

Does Motley Zoo support foster care for cats?

Yes. Motley Zoo provides educational resources and support for cat fosters, including 'Foster 101: Cat Fostering Overview' and 'Foster 101: Cat Litterbox Info', with dedicated foster inquiries handled at foster@motleyzoo.org.
