Moving and Rehoming Tips
We know that sometimes rehoming your beloved pet is a last resort when you have simply run out of options. NCPIN does not assist with this, but below is a list of ideas to help you find the best new home for your animal.
And make sure to do your due diligence. You want your pet to go to a good home. Do your research. Create an application and ask all the questions you need to know to be certain your pet is going to be safe, loved and happy.
-
Ask friends, family, coworkers and neighbors about adopting your pet.
-
Online Breed Rescues: If your pet is purebred, check with breed rescues online about doing a courtesy listing for you.
