Are you admitting a cat due to behavioral concerns? Before scheduling an appointment, we ask that you review our Feline Behavior Resources
After reviewing the resources above if you are still unable to keep your pet please be aware that an appointment is required to admit an animal into our care to ensure we have space available. When you bring in a stray or owned animal we ask that you pay a $35 Transfer of Care Fee, which will cover a small fraction of our costs for admitting the animal and caring for his/her needs.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is extremely important to come to your appointment at the scheduled date and time. Therefore surrender appointment fees will be charged at the time of scheduling and are non refundable. You may call within 48 hours to change the appointment if needed for no fee.
Please note that HSWM does not accept checks.
Please bring any veterinary records that you have for the pet you are surrendering. Be prepared to provide information that will assist us in properly placing your pet in a new home. If you arrive early to your appointment, please wait in your vehicle until your scheduled appointment time.
