Norman Animal Welfare

The Adoption Process Before you adopt, we recommend doing your research to find out more about the tendencies and personality traits of the dogs and cats that interest you. While our staff can assist you onsite with specifics regarding the individual animal, it is good to understand the general breed characteristics and behavior traits. Potential adopters should also consider their preferences on age, animal size, exercise requirements, grooming needs, and potential health concerns of each breed or breed mix. • Look online at our available pets. • No appointments are necessary to come visit with our adoptable animals. Our staff and volunteers will be available to help you through this process. • Once you have found the right pet for you, our staff will assist you with completing our adoption paperwork. Remember you must be at least 18-years-old and have a photo identification card with your current address to adopt. • All animals are our facility are first come, first served basis. Adoption Fees Adoption fee for all dogs and cats is $50. Adoption fee for all other animals varies based on the animal. As part of a special event or promotion, adoption fees for dogs and cats may be reduced or waived. City of Norman Pet License and microchip fees ($10) will still apply.
