FIND A HOME FOR YOUR ANIMAL

At Save-A-Life we understand that sometimes people find themselves in a situation where they can no longer keep their pet. Also, many people find stray animals that are in need of a good home. Please DO NOT TAKE YOUR PET TO THE SHELTER. Most of the shelters in the L.A. area euthanize 9 out of 10 animals they receive. Before deciding to bring an animal to Save-A-Life, there are options for finding a new home for your pet. The following resources can help you find an adoptive family:

• www.wonderpuppy.net has compiled extensive resources from ways to resolve issue that will allow you to keep your pet or to find a home for your animal companion.
• Best Friends Animal Sanctuary has created a pamphlet in Acrobat PDF format on "How to Find Homes for Homeless Pets." Please be aware of who you choose as a new family. Unfortunately there are many unscrupulous people who will adopt a pet and say they'll love it, but will instead sell the pet to a laboratory for research. This pamphlet provides information on how to screen potential candidates.
• Local rescue groups often have connections to individuals looking to adopt certain types of animals. Usually if you are willing to continue caring for your pet until they find a new home, they can help place your pet. If you cannot foster your pet, ask friends or relatives if they could assist with these. Many will if it means there's a chance your pet will find a loving home. Plan ahead so there is plenty of time to find an appropriate adoptive family.
• If you are moving and feel you have to give up your pet because of your housing choice, investigate the following sites for pet-friendly housing options:
  
  • Renting With Pets
  • Renting  especially with Dogs
