My Pet Adoption is a searchable list of pets from over 1,000 rescue centres and rescue groups across the UK. To find an adoptable pet, you can begin your search using “Find a Pet” located above. Since My Pet Adoption is updated regularly, we recommend that you keep checking back or create a saved search email alert to be notified when new pets matching your search criteria are added to the site.

To be notified by email when pets matching your search criteria are first posted on the site, use our saved search feature.

Across the 1,000 rescue centres in My Pet Adoptions UK network, each is responsible for updating adoptable pet listings. To learn about a specific pet, please contact the rescue directly by going to the Pet Profile page and clicking the “Ask About” button.

Because each rescue centre and rescue group is responsible for keeping its adoptable pet listings current, My Pet Adoption is continuously updated.

My Pet Adoption is a website and searchable database for over 1,000 animal rescue centres and rescue groups across the UK to post their adoptable pets. While My Pet Adoption does provide a web-based adoption platform for groups across the UK, we are not involved in any of our members’ pet adoptions. Each adoption group using our site has its own adoption policies and procedures and solely handles its own pet adoptions.

Once you find a pet you’re interested in adopting, you’ll probably want to meet him or her. Go to the Pet Profile page by clicking on the pet’s picture or name on a search results page. This takes you to the pet’s detail page. Click “Ask About” to directly contact the rescue centre to inquire further.

Submitting an adoption inquiry does not guarantee that the pet you’ve inquired about will still be available. For more information regarding the status of your inquiry, or the pet you’ve applied for, please contact the rescue centre that listed the pet. The centre’s address and contact information can also be found on the pet’s profile page.

No. Once you’ve submitted an inquiry to the rescue centre, the rescue centre with the pet you’re interested in will be sent your information. It is then up to the rescue centre to determine whether it’s a match.

After submitting an adoption inquiry, the rescue centre with the pet you’re interested in will contact you. You may also reach out to the rescue centre directly to follow up.

My Pet Adoption is a community and, like all communities, each individual or organization is a little bit different. Some days you might send in an inquiry and get a response within a few minutes and other groups may take a few days or a week. Don’t be afraid to follow up with the rescue centre.

My Pet Adoption doesn’t dictate rescue centre’s policy, including adoption requirements and fees. If you’re interested in a specific pet, please contact the rescue centre that created the pet listing through the Pet Profile page.

Adoption fees help cover the medical care of the animal while he or she waits for a new home, as well as food and transportation costs. These fees help to provide care for the other animals in the rescue centre who may have medical bills that are much higher than any possible adoption fee. The money also acts as a donation to help support the organization as a whole, allowing the rescue centre to continue its efforts to rescue and rehome.
