Prospective adopters and visitors are welcomed between the hours of 12 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday; 12-7 on Thursdays; and 11-4 on Saturdays and Sundays. If you'll be coming to adopt a particular animal, you can call the adoption center front desk at (413) 736-2992 to see if he or she is still available.
Potential adopters can get to know a cat in the Cat Pavilion's Visiting Room. Dogs can be taken outdoors on leash. After deciding on a pet, a written application must be filled out. Once approved, an adoption counselor discusses behavior and care before sending you home with your new friend.
