Almost Home believes that every animal deserves a loving home regardless of appearance, age, or physical limitation. We have come together to give animals in need the safe and happy life they all deserve. Almost Home Animal Rescue believes that no animal is expendable.
Adopting a friend:
The animals, lucky enough to find refuge with Almost Home, are all in loving foster homes. If you are interested in the possibility of giving one of the animals a new lease on life, please contact us. The contact information is listed at the end of each biography.
What you need to do to adopt:
If you would like to adopt a pet in need from Almost Home, basically, an application must be filled out. We will check two personal references and a vet reference. If you are approved for adoption, there is a trial period of about one week to make sure this is the animal for you and you are the person for the animal. Along with the trial period, a contract must be signed that basically states that if ever you cannot keep the animal that you must return the animal to Almost Home. Last but not least, a home check will be done.
Meet & Greets:
An approved application is required. This does not mean that you have to adopt but that you are approved to do so if everything works out. Since we are foster based, this limits the amount of people coming to our homes.
HI!
I am an adorable little dog named Oakley! I was rescued from a not so good situation. I have a great foster mommy and now I'm on the search for my forever home. I'm really excited about my new chapter.
I am a nine year old that is full of life! I LOVE to be with my person and will be your little shadow. Have a treat for me? I have the cutest beg dance on my hind legs that you've ever seen!
I get along fantastically with kitties AND other doggies! Older children would be just fine. My perfect home would be someone that is home a lot! I mentioned that I really want to be with my people, well, that's my true heart's desire. A retired couple would be right up my alley.
I am about five to six pounds. I enjoy car rides and walks. I am pee-pad trained. I need to be taken out often and I don't always let you know. My first home either didn't train me well or I am a tiny girl with a tiny bladder. I enjoy being pampered. I'm good with baths and being brushed.
I still need to be fixed and will have an appointment soon. I don't take much room. So, if you have room for a gentle girl with a huge heart, don't wait!
Love,
Oakley
If you would like to meet your new best friends, contact the Adoption Coordinator at info@almosthometn.org or 865-236-0830. To fill out an application, go to www.almosthometn.org. If you cannot get it to work, let us know and we will email it to you in a different format.
Unless otherwise noted, all Almost Home cats are healthy, spayed/neutered, up-to-date on vaccinations, and flea & tick preventative. Adoption Fee $200
ADOPTION FEE:
The adoption fee for a cat is $85.
The adoption fee for a kitten is $100. The adoption fee does include the kittens being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets.
The adoption fee for a dog is $200.
The adoption fee for a puppy is $250. The adoption fee does include the puppies being fixed and their rabies shot when they are old enough through one of our local vets.
Mature pet adoption fees are sometimes reduced.
The adoption fee for pure bred dogs and cats will vary due to health and age of pet. This helps support our ill animals and our mutts that get left in the system longer.
We do reserve the right to change the fees higher or lower due to the circumstance of the animal but what was stated above are the usual adoption fees. Microchipped pets will have a higher adoption fee. Our adoption fees do not cover the cost of the vetting and care the animal has received with us and if it ever does, the money just goes back it to helping other animals in need.
