Adopt A Leash

Have you ever wished you could adopt a dog or cat from CARA but....you don't have room at your home for another pet...or....you travel too much to make the commitment? CARA is rolling out a new program--Adopt a Leash! We have about 25 dogs and cats at CARA who are older or have special needs. 

Under the new program, you can adopt the dog or cat’s leash but the animal still lives at the shelter. For a monthly donation of $30 (payable online or mail in),  you will help provide for your pet and you will have the opportunity to socialize with them at the shelter (at least 4 hours per month) or even take them to community events (dogs only). You will be asked to make a minimum commitment of one year and to complete foster and volunteer forms at the shelter. Interested? Please stop by the shelter to select your special one.
