FAAS Private Adoptions

We understand that parting with a beloved pet is never easy. At Friends of Alameda Animal Shelter (FAAS), we believe that the best place for a pet is in a loving home. That’s why we are proud to offer FAAS Private Adoptions, a free listing service for Alameda pet owners who are looking for an alternative to surrendering their pets to the shelter.
 
Through FAAS Private Adoptions, you can connect with potential adopters directly, ensuring your pet finds a new loving home without the stress of entering a shelter. Let us help you make this transition as smooth and compassionate as possible.

Why use FAAS Private Adoptions?

  • You decide who adopts your pet.
  • Your pet stays in your home until a suitable adopter is found.
  • Shelter space remains available to animals who have no home.

 

How is FAAS Involved?

FAAS displays available animals on its website and can answer questions about the service. Otherwise, FAAS is not involved. Owners and adopters communicate and meet with each other directly. 

 

How To List A Pet

To use FAAS Private Adoptions to rehome your pet, you must live in the City of Alameda and submit a Private Adoptions Agreement & Application. If accepted, your pet will appear on the FAAS Private Adoptions Page for 3 months.

Potential adopters will contact you directly about your pet using the personal contact information you provide.

IMPORTANT: You may not request or accept a fee in exchange for your pet. Doing so will result in your listing being removed.
