Thank you for your interest in adopting! Please note: we do not pre-approve applications, and we do not require applications to be submitted in advance. If you see an animal you'd like to potentially meet, there's no need to wait-your next step is to visit us in person, no appointment necessary!
To adopt, you must have a valid photo ID and be 21 years of age or older. Adoptions are first come, first served based on best match. To find the most appropriate home for each animal and best fit for each family, SPCA Westchester reserves the right to decline an adoption. If your application is approved, we do same day adoptions and do NOT hold animals unless the animal requires more than one visit. If you're intending to adopt, please bring a leash or cat carrier with you. If you are interested in adopting a dog and currently have a dog of your own, please bring them with you.
