Adoption Spotlight

Tilly

Hi! My name is Tilly. I’m one and a half years old and the shelter is the only life I’ve known. I’ve been here since I was 2 months old! I’m still a kitten at heart, but need someone to call my own, purrferably someone who likes to play. I love to play almost as much as I like being the center of attention, but then again who doesn’t? Did I mention my favorite time of the day is playtime? The volunteers break out my favorite toys and I can hardly contain myself. The best days are when I get to play with sticks and ribbons or mice (although I think they are fake mice). I’m not as vocal as most cats and enjoy perching on the edge of the cattery. I like all kinds( two or four legs): other cats, kids, people and even canines.

Leilani

Hi! My name is Leilani. I didn’t have a name when I was found on the streets. I was about three months old when I came to this shelter.  I was scared at first and didn’t want anyone coming near me. After a while, I understood that everyone was here to help me and learned my new name, Leilani. I’m almost a year old now and I still haven’t found my forever home. When the people walk by my room, I get so excited I jump at the door and the people keep walking. I don’t understand why. Don’t they see I want to come home with them? I just need to learn some manners because I have so much energy and just want to play. I can also hike and go places to have fun with you. If you come into my room and visit with me you’ll see after a few minutes I calm down and will even roll over to have my belly scratched! Won't you visit me and give me a chance?  A nice Adoption Counselor can tell you all about me and we can even take a walk together!!

Adoption Application

  • Visit the shelter at 20 Wiedy Rd, Kingston. Visitors can stroll through our puppy room, cattery, and kennels. Read the cage cards located on each cage or kennel or ask a kennel attendant for assistance.
  • If you find an animal you are interested in and have read the information about the animal, please complete an adoption application either by downloading it online prior to visiting our shelter or obtaining an application at our front desk. Completed applications are required prior to a meet and greet with your future pet.
  • We ask that all family members be present during your first counsel session, this will alleviate unnecessary wait times for both you and your family and allow the pet to leave our facility quicker. This frees up much needed kennel space for other pets.
  • To ensure that UCSPCA animals and adopters are properly matched, we ask that you complete our adoption application comprised of critical questions in any adoption process before proceeding to a meet and greet. Animals at UCSPCA are homeless and for that reason, extra care is taken to ensure animals are placed in the best environments possible.
  • Spend some time interacting with the animal outside their kennel. Ask questions. Be sure this is the right animal for you. You will be interviewed by a UCSPCA adoption counselor. In some cases, an adoption may not be approved based on best interest of the human or pet.
  • After an approved interview, if you would like to bring your pet home a valid picture ID is required and all household members and animals must visit with the animal before the adoption can be finalized.
  • All animals adopted from UCSPCA will be spayed or neutered before being allowed to go home.
