Pet Adoption in Powell, WY
Finding the right pet is about more than choosing an animal, it’s about finding a companion who fits your home and lifestyle. Moyer Animal Shelter makes pet adoption in Powell, WY simple and thoughtful by helping connect dogs and cats with families ready to give them a safe, loving home.
The Steps to Adopting
Step 1
Meet Our Available Animals
Browse our adoptable pets online or visit Moyer Animal Shelter during public hours. Our staff can tell you more about each animal’s personality, history, energy level, and individual needs.
Step 2
Spend Some Time Together
See someone you’re interested in? Take some time to get acquainted! We encourage potential adopters to interact with the animal and ask plenty of questions. If you have children or other pets at home, let our staff know so we can help determine whether the animal may be a good fit.
Step 3
Complete an Adoption Application
Once you’re ready to move forward, complete an adoption application. The application gives us information about your household, lifestyle, current pets, and what you’re looking for in a new companion.
Step 4
Application Review
Our staff reviews adoption applications as quickly as possible. Our goal isn’t to find a “perfect” adopter, it’s to make thoughtful, responsible matches that give both the animal and adopter the best opportunity for success.
Step 5
Finalize the Adoption
Once your application is approved, we’ll complete the adoption paperwork, review the animal’s available medical information with you, collect the adoption fee, and answer any last-minute questions.
Step 6
Welcome Them Home!
Now the fun begins! Remember that moving into a new home is a big adjustment. Some animals settle in immediately, while others need days or weeks to feel completely comfortable. Give your new family member patience, consistency, and time to learn that they are finally home.
