Visit the Spartanburg Humane Society and get to know an animal who is available for adoption. We have visitation rooms and a fenced area outside where you can spend some time with the animal of your choice.

Complete a short online adoption application(scroll below) or print out our application and bring it with you.  This paperwork includes a few simple questions, and requires proof of identity. This is simply to protect the health of adopted animals as well as any pets you already have at home. You can speed up this process by bringing in records of your pets’ vaccination history.

Have a counseling session with a member of our staff who will explain all the benefits of adopting from the Spartanburg Humane Society. You can ask your counselor any questions about our post adoption veterinary services, and anything else you might wish to know.

Sign an adoption contract and pay the adoption fee, which helps to offset the cost of the services provided to you and your new pet.

Take your new family companion home!

Many people think the Spartanburg Humane Society only handles dogs and cats but that isn’t the case.  In the last two years we have provided shelter and care to over 1,000 animals of other species.

Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, ferrets, reptiles, birds or even fish — we are here for every animal who needs us.   If you are looking for a pet like this, we hope you will agree that adoption is the only option!

Adoption fees and procedures vary by species, feel free to contact our adoption department if you have a question about adopting one of these animals.

• From time to time, large animal and farm animal species, including horses, goats, cows and pigs also need the help of the Spartanburg Humane Society.

  The procedures may be a little different, but the mission is the same — just like dogs, cats, and smaller critters, these animals also deserve a second chance.
