Hello everyone!

Thank you for signing up for Sunday’s adoption event at in Forest Park!  This event is located in the upper Muny parking lot.  We had originally listed the times for this event as 11am to 3pm but Monica has to leave a little early so we are going to take it to 2pm, of course you are free to stay longer if you would like to.

I have attached a photo of the set up area, look for our information table with the black tablecloth.  Parking is always challenging because we aren’t able to block off any spaces for an event like this.  Sunday forecast: 57 and sunny!

Fosters, if you need any supplies such as an xpen, blankets, puppy pads etc. please let us know beforehand so we can get the items ready for you to pick up before the event.

FEFA Financial is our amazingly generous adoption sponsors from April 1st through April 14th!  Animals 6 months or older. 

Big, BIG reminder: It is not Stray Rescue's policy to conduct on-the-spot adoption transfers at adoption events. We could get in trouble with Dept. of Ag if this happens. Adoption events are the first step in the adoption process, no animals should be going home with potential adopters from an event, period.   Please contact your foster/adoption team if you have any questions or need a refresher on our adoption policies!

  • Please take lots of pictures and post them to social media #strayrescue and #petco.  
  • Leave enough time to get to your event on time (or 5-10 minutes early)

 

 

• There are limited slots for fosters to sign up, fosters are considered volunteers so don’t let that throw you when you read "10 volunteers needed" click on the box under "Choose" and scroll down to fill in your contact information. In the comments section at the bottom list your foster pet(s) name and age. click on the box (bottom right) that says I'm not a robot, then click submit. • You will then receive an email thanking you for signing up and giving you instructions on how to remove yourself if you need to. Keep the email and refer to it. It's important to free up the space if you cannot attend.
