Save a life: Adopt a pet

By choosing to adopt a pet from a shelter, you are saving a life. Plus, no matter what type of dog or cat you’re looking for, you’re sure to find your new best friend at a shelter, where there are wonderful pets of every breed, size and age. You can also adopt from the Best Friends Pet Adoption Center in Salt Lake City. Each pet at the center comes from a Utah shelter or our Kitten Nursery and is vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and microchipped before going to a new home.

Come visit us!

The Best Friends Pet Adoption Center in Sugar House is a lifesaving force in Salt Lake City, dedicated to giving homeless pets their best chance to find forever homes. And it’s a great place for you to find your new best friend. Each pet at the center comes from a local Utah shelter or our Best Friends Kitten Nursery, and each one is microchipped, vaccinated, spayed or neutered, and ready to go home with you after a short survey.

The Best Friends Pet Adoption Center is also a great place to purchase Best Friends and NKUT gear! Our boutique stocks t-shirts and hoodies for men and women, hats, stickers, car magnets, bracelets and more. We also offer low-cost spay/neuter resources for your pets and community cat support. Stop by to learn more!

Note that the Best Friends Pet Adoption Center does not take in animals from the public. We find we can help more animals by assisting and managing our limited intake through our existing No More Homeless Pets Network partners. A list, searchable by state, can be found on our network page. Additionally, we offer resources with advice for finding a pet a new home in our Resources library.
