Oh Master take this oath for me: "I do solemnly swear to accept the responsibility for the animals put in my care. To tend to their basic needs of food and shelter. To minister to their ailments. To put their well being before my own, if need be. I swear to treat them with respect. To always remember that we have made them dependent to us and therefore have put their lives in our hands. As God as my witness." |

UPDATE: FROM OUR START-UP DATE, 10-11-03 THROUGH 8-1-07: WE HAVE FOUND "FOREVER HOMES" FOR over 300 HOMELESS ANIMALS. THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT. Who We ArePick-A-Pet Adoptions was established in October, 2003. We are a non-profit organization established under Section 501 (c) 3 of the Internal Revenue Code. Our goal is to reduce the number of animals euthanized in Chattooga County and surrounding areas. We are dedicated to assisting homeless pets find their "forever home". We do not have a shelter (we are a home-based rescue) therefore all animals are placed in foster homes until the "purr-fect furever" home is found.We have a few darling pets that came to us shortly after our inception that have yet to find a forever home. They are in desperate need of a caring, loving family to be able to call their own and know a life other than being one of a dozen in a foster home. If you would really like to be appreciated by a loyal companion for the rest of your life, please take a close look at: Jada, Addy & Ozzie - their hearts are full of love to give to someone special. A BIG THANK YOU to Karen in Canada for putting our application online. Thank you for being our Webmaster!
