We recommend starting your search for a new pet online. If you see a pet you want to meet, note their location and write down their ID number. We have three adoption facilities: Leslie A Malone Center in Denver, The Buddy Center in Castle Rock, and the San Luis Valley Animal Center in Alamosa. Adoptions are on a first come, first served basis. We regularly update our available cats, dogs, and small mammals online, but there’s always a possibility that the pet you saw on our site will find a home before you get a chance to visit. Learn everything you need to know about adopting a pet from Humane Colorado on the pet adoptions process page.
All adoptions include: Spay or neuter surgeries Age-appropriate vaccinations A microchip ID A free wellness visit with a participating veterinarian. A temporary collar and ID tag A temporary leash or a carrier
When you adopt a pet, please bring: A valid photo ID with your current address.
