Additional adoption info
In order to adopt from our program, you must first apply. You can access the application on our website at www.meadow-haven.com under the "Adoption Form" link. The application fee is $35. After we process and approve an application (which involves a vet check, home visit, phone conversations with the applicant, etc.), only then do we discuss potential matches for the adopter based on which animals are available at that time.
