Woodrock Animal Rescue Adoption Policy

All animals will be sterilized, inoculated, rabies vaccinated and dewormed prior to adoption, and a vaccination health record reflecting all relative historical information is handed over to the new family.

Precedent to the adoption agreement and limited title to the adopted animal

  • If at any time, throughout the future life of the adopted animal, Woodrock Animal Rescue at its sole discretion, determines that the welfare of the adopted animal is compromised, then Woodrock Animal Rescue retains the RIGHT to re-take possession of the adopted animal from its guardian (person adopting the animal) and to refund all adoption monies paid.
  • The guardian further agrees that Woodrock Animal Rescue may visit the new family home.
  • The guardian further agrees that no change in guardianship to the adopted animal shall take place without the prior approval of Woodrock Animal Rescue.

Woodrock Animal Rescue Adoption Procedure:

  • We answer questions regarding the animals over the phone, email and at the shelter to determine suitability.
  • The adopter must visit the shelter and meet the animal in person. We advise a greet and meet with your existing pets and the potential adopted animal take place at Woodrock.
  • The adopter completes an adoption application form and pays a non-refundable R200 application fee via cash or card only. This fee will be deducted from the Adoption Fee if adoption successful.
  • A home check date is arranged.
  • If the home check is approved, the adopter will be notified and can come and collect the adopted animal. (Adoption fee payable in full before animal leaves the premises - cash or card only)
  • If the adoption should not work out after a few days, the animal may be returned, no questions asked and the adoption fee will be refunded.

Due to the nature of rescue, many times we are unable to ascertain the "house-trained" ability of the animals and so we stress that patience is emphasized over the transition phase. Woodrock also has some great tips and tricks regarding potty training.

We are always available for advice, a chat or reassurance! By adopting an animal with us you are embarking into an ongoing relationship and we are always there for you as you are to the animal.
