Adoption Requirements

You must be 21 years of age or older.
The legal adopter must complete the application. We do not adopt animals as Gifts, as Surprises, or by Proxy.
Your entire household (including children and dogs) must come to Lone Star Sanctuary for a supervised Meet-And-Greet with the animal you would like to adopt.
A mandatory 24-hour "consideration period" must precede every adoption.
Adopted dogs must have access to an adequate, fenced-in yard.
Cats must be adopted as indoor pets.
Large-breed dogs require a house with a private, fenced-in yard; and may not be adopted into apartments or moble-homes.
If you rent, you must provide a copy of your lease agreement stating that pets are allowed, and you must provide proof that all applicable pet deposits have been paid.
You must provide proof of address to adopt a young cat before spay/neuter, and you must return the cat to Lone Star Sanctuary for Animals for its spay/neuter appointment.
Lone Star Sanctuary for Animals is unable to adopt outside the Midland - Odessa - Big Spring area, due to our logistical capabilities.
You must agree to provide regular veterinary care for the animal and keep it up to date on vaccinations and registration.
An adoption donation of $100.00 is required for each animal, unless that animal or the adopter qualifies for one of our special adoption programs.
