ANIMALS FOR ADOPTION
Animals in this category are available for adoption.
These animals arrived at the Pound for various reasons. Most were strays, some were abandoned, others have interesting stories. Because no one has come forward to claim the animal it is now available to be legally adopted to a new owner.
Your signature is required on the Adoption Contract because you will be making a serious commitment to care and keep the animal in a humane, ethical, responsible and lawful manner for the rest of its life.
We do our best to create a safe and comfortable environment for animals to live in at the Pound & Adoption Centre, but as good as it is, it isn't a home - we need you to provide that!
NACS has no time limit on how long we will keep an animal before it is adopted.
The following animals are just lounging around . . . waiting . . . for YOU!
Due to COVID-19, our adoption process has changed. Please do not come to the pound unless you have an appointment. If you are interested in adopting an animal posted below, please email us at and we will send you a fillable application form. Approved applicants will be invited to meet the animal.
Thank you for your understanding!
PEPPA: AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
Female Guinea Pig
Meet Peppa! This adorable, outgoing and talkative young girl is ready to find her forever home. Peppa loves to eat and expects treats whenever she sees you. Peppa came into care on her own and has not had contact with other small animals while with us, however we anticipate with proper introductions she would do well with a companion. Peppa is a very smart and active girl who will require an experienced guardian to help keep her stimulated. Peppa has shown that she enjoys being pet and even being held once she’s comfortable. Peppa’s future guardian should be prepared to ensure she gets adequate time out of her enclosure to enable her to continue her socialization and development. Peppa's adoption fee is $25.
