While OAA does not typically shelter animals, many of our incredible partners do. We know our shelters and rescues in Oklahoma are overflowing. We also know that sometimes in life, we face challenges that force us to make otherwise unimaginable decisions. Whether due to illness, loss of a job, divorce, a death in the family, or many other scenarios, sometimes a family is forced to make the heart-wrenching decision to rehome a pet.

To help both our community members facing this decision and our rescue and shelter partners, OAA has partnered with Rehome by Adopt-A-Pet.com. With over 5 million visits to their site monthly, this offers pets an excellent opportunity to be seen by those looking for a new family member while remaining in their homes and not taking up space in our already maxed-out shelters.

PLEASE NOTE: The animals below are NOT at OAA. Their caregivers upload animal’s profile and offer them for adoption. Interest in these animals requires direct communication with their caregivers, as they have provided all the information. OAA does not verify the accuracy of any information, including, but not limited to, health and behavioral information. Potential adopters are responsible for contacting the caregivers who listed the animal for adoption. OAA offers this service as a courtesy to the community and accepts no responsibility for the pets posted here or the adoption experience related to them.

Pet owners pay a listing fee to Adopt-A-Pet of between $5 and $50 depending on a few factors. The most common listing fee is $5, and the second most common is $10. However, if those costs cause hardship, OAA’s partnership with Adopt-A-Pet allows us to provide you with a referral code further discounting the price. Just reach out to us info@AnimalAllianceOK.org to request assistance.

Here are some tips on writing your pet’s bio!

• Make sure you cover the basics – age, size, sex and appearance.
• Note any relevant health issues or surgeries, including if they have been spayed or neutered. Be honest! Some people are willing to take on health issues but they have to have the full picture.
• Note any behavior issues or challenges as well as any training they have or are working on. Are they great at sit and stay but not great about barking or staying in the yard? That might not be an issue for some, but it could be important for someone in an apartment or without a fenced yard.
• Note any selectiveness – for example, how do they do with other animals? Kids?
• Include your contact information and the best time and way to reach you.

Some questions you might ask potential adopters:

• Are you adopting for yourself or someone else?
• Do you rent? Do you have roommates? If so, have you ensured bringing an animal in is okay?
• Have you had pets before? What was your experience like?
• Do you have kids? Other pets?
• Do you have a vet you plan to use, or would you like to continue using their current vet?
• Do you have an emergency contact who can help with your pet if needed?
