Adoption Events

Angel's Wish does not have a shelter; we believe animals do best in a foster care setting instead of being in a cage while awaiting a new home. Fostering allows us to provide loving, individual care and assess behavior and personality in a home-setting. This helps us to make better matches and increases the probability of permanent placement. If you are interested in a specific animal, just make an appointment with their foster home or find out which adoption event they will be at by contacting the person listed on the animal's Petfinder.com page. Otherwise, come to one of our many adoption events to meet multiple animals at once. A map to each location is available by clicking on the location's address.

Adoption Applications
Our applications for adopting a cat or dog are below. Please forward your completed application directly to the foster home of the animal you are interested in — this will be the e-mail address in the animal's description in the Petfinder.com listings. You may also wish to fill out an adoption application prior to attending an adoption event. Please print it out and bring it with you. Sending it to us via US Mail will greatly delay your application being processed.

Happy Endings
Every week people come to us looking for a new member of the family, and every week several great animals find new homes with those wonderful people. We often hear from these adoptive families letting us know how their pet is doing. We are proud of our successes and enjoy sharing some of their stories with you here! See our recently adopted animals
IsabelHi Lois,

We're writing with a "happy ending" story for Pamela, who we call Isabel. She and our big boy LB (or Barstow as his foster parents call him) are best friends and we are a happy little family. Isabel is a spunky, tiny cat, the perfect companion for sweet-tempered but huge LB. She likes to carefully arrange their toys around the apartment then periodically bring one out to play with. We have no idea where she is keeping many of them. She and LB curl up together to groom and sleep, eat together nicely, and take turns chasing each other. It's hilarious to see a 13 pound cat being chased by a 5 pounder! She is very affectionate with us too, giving kisses and purring and standing up on her wee back legs to be petted. LB's boredom is 100% improved by having his own kitty to play with and take care of, and we enjoy having two such sweet kitties in our lives. Thank you for helping us adopt these two wonderful cats.

regards,
Jane and Paul
StubbyHi Sue,

Just wanted to update you on Stubby. Ken called and said a huge "Thanks" for connecting your organization with him. He not only was very impressed with Angel's Wish, but he also is loving having Stubby at his home. He and his daughter are both finding Stubby to be lots of fun and snuggling. I'm so glad I emailed his cat wish to your organization -- and quite happy both cat and cat owner are thrilled with each other! We have made a great connection for both! Thank you and Angel's Wish for making this happen!

Sincerely,
Heidi

LuLuHi Dianne and Mary Ellen,

Tom, Oliver (our cat) and I are VERY happy to report that LuLu has adjusted to life in the Hendricks home - and that she and Oliver even spend lots of quality time together.  It was an uphill battle at times (OK, a lot of the time), but we are so glad everything worked out.  She is sweet not only to humans, but also to Oliver.  Yippeeeee!!!

I just weighed her and she's a little more than 13 pounds.  That's a 44% increase since we brought her home three months ago - can you say Miss Piggy?  :)

Here is a picture of crazy Lu.  This is how she loves to sit...a co-worker said she looks like she swallowed a softball!

Thanks for everything and we'll send more pictures!

Take care,
Meghan
