*In order to adopt an animal from CCAS you must spend at least 15 minutes with that animal before an adoption can be finalized. Please bring your Photo ID. Please bring your own leash/collar or cat carrier.*

After you have found your perfect match, simply fill out a pre-adoption questionnaire (located in our lobby). This questionnaire takes less than two minutes to complete. Once this questionnaire is reviewed and approved by our staff (less than 10 minutes) the adoption can be finalized!
