Pet Adoption Pet Adoption
Dogs and cats are available for adoption. It's easy to see the current animals available. If you would like to know more information about an animal, click on its picture.

Adoptions must be done at one of our Animal Centres. The animal information is updated every 30 minutes during hours of operation. We cannot guarantee that all animals listed will be available when you visit.

How to adopt
The adoption fees include a veterinary health check and vaccinations, sterilization, microchip and rabies vaccination. Residents of Toronto will also be required to purchase a dog or cat licence; a licence is included when adopting from Toronto Animal Services. Those adopters residing outside the City of Toronto will be receive a fee reduction for the licence but must purchase a licence in the their own community. Once you have found an animal you would like to adopt, you will be required to complete an Adoption Questionnaire. Upon approval, you will be able to take your new dog or cat home that same day. The fees for adopting an animal are as follows:
  • Adult cats or kittens are $99.75 including all taxes and licence. *discount available to senior citizens.
  • Adult dogs or puppies are $166.25 including all taxes and licence. *discount available to senior citizens
