My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Tara, a confident and independent cat with a personality all her own! Tara knows what she likes—delicious food and tasty treats are the way to her heart. While she isn’t a fan of being picked up, she’s happy to enjoy your company on her own terms. Tara prefers a litterbox with high walls to keep things tidy and appreciates a home that respects her boundaries. Tara must be the only pet in the home, as she enjoys having all the attention to herself. If you’re looking for a low-maintenance companion who loves her independence, Tara might be the perfect match for you! Come meet her today!

Additional adoption info

We invite you to visit the shelter locations and meet the animals and the adoption team!

Our adoption process is aimed at matching you, your family and your current pets with our animals for adoption. An adoption counselor will introduce you to our animals in a private meeting room. We will share information about the animal's medical and behavioral needs as well as their history.

When you find the right pet for you and your family, the adoption counselor will assist you in completing the proper paperwork. This process includes signing an adoption contract, reviewing medical history and providing proper pet care information.

What you will need in order to adopt:

A valid photo ID with your current address.

We recommend all members of the household meeting the animal before adopting.

If you are interested in adopting a dog and have other dog(s) living in your household, it is recommended that all dogs meet each other at the shelter.

Certain animals require additional steps or requirements.

Adoption fee is accepted in cash or credit/debit card. Checks, American Express, Discover, Care Credit are not accepted as payment.

PLEASE NOTE: We are not able to place a hold or accept a deposit for animals that are not available for adoption, that you have not done a formal meet and greet with, or over the phone. Adoptions are approved for the first qualified home. Adoption is not guaranteed and is at the discretion of Humane Animal Rescue of Pittsburgh.
