ADOPTING A PET FROM HEART

All HEART animals have been stray, abandoned, abused or neglected and are in need of loving forever homes.  In order to ensure our animals have the best future possible and to make rehoming as stress-free as we can for both the animals and their new owners, we have a three-step adoption process.

*We are limiting adoptions within Japan that are not within a reasonable driving distance from Tokushima. We recommend contacting shelters or rescues in your area.

​​*We are unable to facilitate international adoptions especially at this time due to the COVID restrictions.  

 

STEP 1 : Questionnaire

To carefully match our animals with their new family we ask you to complete a  questionnaire  composed of 25 questions.  This step is to assess if the animal(s) you wish to adopt is compatible with your lifestyle and home environment.

STEP 2 : Home check

After checking your questionnaire, we would like to come to your home to see the area where your new cat or dog will be living. We are located in Shikoku, Japan and If a home check is not possible due to distance or time schedule, we ask you to send pictures of your home and garden by e-mail or regular mail.

STEP 3 : Adoption Contract

After HEART staff have decided an animal(s) is a match for your lifestyle and home and if you can agree to our adoption terms, we ask you to sign a contract. Click on the link to view or download.
