>>Was wonder what requirements other rescues have on private adoptions for their animals. Would greatly appreciate the help.

>>Michigan Crocodilian Rescue



Well I do NOT adopt crocodilians to the public. They go from me to a person that I privatly contacted you about. But my general adoption requirements are



Over 18

No breeding allowed for 90% of animals I get

Enclosure already to go (unless one comes with the animal)

Basic working knowledge of animal they are adopting

Prefer home owners, but will adopt to renters with landlord approval

Check area laws to make sure they are allowed the animal

require animal is returned to me in case they can not keep it for any reason

I do home visits where i meet all family members

I do follow-up visits

I require both an adoption application and adoption contract

Depending on animal there may be some more specific requirements as well.



I also make sure they have a vet, and if they dont I supply them with info on a good one in their area.





Hope all this helps.
