Adoption Opening Hours:
Please note: We encourage our team to be with their loved ones over the Christmas period, and as a result we are running with a skeleton staff in our shelters. Due to this and the extreme heat forecast this week, we will be closed for dog adoptions until Saturday December 28. Cat adoptions will remain open.
Wingfield Animal Care Centre
Cat, dog and rabbit adoptions: 10am to 3pm Tuesday to Sunday
Edinburgh North Shelter
Cat adoptions: 10am to 3pm Tuesday to Sunday
Dog adoptions: By application only
Adoption Process Overview:
Step 1
Review the animals here on our website and their suitability criteria before choosing which animal/s you are interested in.
Step 2
Please ensure you take note of where an animal is located and their specific adoption process before visiting either of our locations. This is important, as you will not be able to walk through the dog kennels - you must choose which dogs you would like to meet before arriving.
If you submit an adoption application, please wait for a team member to contact you before visiting either of our sites.
