Our Adoption Program

Adoption Process at NOAH- Our process is very hands on; we are open 7 days per week, Monday through Friday 11am to 6pm and Saturday, Sunday from 11am to 5pm.  We like for potential adopters to meet the dogs/cats to see whose personality will fit your individual lifestyle.  We have Matchmakers who can help you meeting the pets & to go over their health records and care.  NOAH does not have a an adoption application to fill out in advance, because we want you to be able to meet your potential pet before filling out paperwork.  Please call us with any questions (360)629-7055, ask to speak with a Matchmaker.  Matchmaker, Matchmaker make me a match!!!

Upon arriving at N.O.A.H. dogs immediately start manners training through our in-house training program. Taught mainly by specially trained volunteers, the manners training is designed to better prepare the dogs for their new home. The training also benefits the dogs by offering stimulation and human interaction during their stay at N.O.A.H. Cats for adoption at N.O.A.H. enjoy the luxury of an open-room cat colony and an outside sun porch. With volunteers whose only job is to nurture the cats, this low-stress area is a welcome reprieve for the cats that come to N.O.A.H.

General Information about our Adoption Program:

Since opening in May 2003, over 7,900 dogs and cats have entered our program and been given a new opportunity for a loving home through our adoption program.

Adoptions have averaged 1,000 per year with a 14 day average length of stay for dogs and 30 days for cats.

Unable to be adopted at the first shelter and considered by many as "hard to adopt" because of age, coat color, breed, or size, these deserving animals are now enriching the lives of N.O.A.H. adopters.

As a constant source of support and relief for our eight partner shelters in the four county area, we have demonstrated the benefits of partnerships to help animals. The welcomed euthanasia "relief valve" has helped improve the morale of staff and volunteers at our partner shelters improving the prevailing feelings associated with animal welfare.

Pets from our adoption program have graced the homes of people in 20 of the 39 Washington state counties, 12 other states, and British Columbia, Canada.
