Our Adoption Center

A Revolution in Sheltering

Raising the bar and redefining what it means to be an animal shelter.


Designed to Revolutionize Sheltering

Every homeless pet deserves to feel safe, loved and cared for. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case in traditional shelters, where overcrowding, noise, smells and stress are the norm.

Our Pippen Fasseas Adoption Center is anything but traditional. It has been expertly designed to provide bright, welcoming and accessible temporary homes for homeless animals.

With the Pippen Fasseas Adoption Center, we have shown that high-quality care and a clean, friendly environment lead to happier, healthier animals and more adoptions. In Kitty City, cats and kittens have large rooms to grow their confidence with other cats, interact with staff and volunteers, and experience a multitude of enrichment activities. In Dog Town, dogs and puppies have the comfort of their own space or space with adoptable friends and a rooftop for fetch, playgroups, and exercise.
