Kittens
-
When
is the best time to adopt kittens?
The
spring months are the time that the shelter sees the most
kittens. However, we do get them in throughout the year.
-
Is
there a waiting list for kittens?
No, there is not a waiting list for kittens. It is suggested
to call the shelter to inquire if there are any kittens available
at that time. (603-472-3647)
Limited
Admission Shelter
-
What
is a Limited Admission Shelter?
The Animal Rescue League of NH is considered a Limited Admissions
shelter. This term means that the shelter takes animals by appointment
only and the animal must meet certain standards to ensure adoptability.
No animals will be euthanized for lack of space or after a predetermined
time limit. Once an animal enters our adoption program, they
will remain at the shelter until they are adopted. However,
if any animal is considered un-adoptable for severe medical
issues or if the animal shows aggressive behavior, the shelter
staff would have to make the choice to euthanize the animal.
Because of these policies, The Animal Rescue League of NH is
NOT considered a "no-kill shelter".
Puppies
- Do
you get Puppies in and how can I get one?
The
Animal Rescue League of NH does not see too many puppies. The
State of New Hampshire has a reputable spaying and neutering
service. The shelter keeps a "puppy file". We recommend coming
in and filling out an application. The applications are kept
on file and when puppies come in, qualifying applications will
be contacted.
Volunteering
-
How
old do you have to be to volunteer at the shelter?
In order to volunteer here, you must be at least 12 years
old. All children between 12 and 15 must be accompanied by
a parent or guardian while volunteering.
-
How
do I start volunteering?
All volunteers are required to attend a volunteer orientation
prior to volunteering. Please call the shelter to sign up
for the orientation. (603-472-3647
