Submitting this form does not imply that Paws for Life NC will be able to take in your surrendered animal unless it was originally adopted from Paws for Life NC. We will do our best to find a foster home for your animal if one is available. Paws for Life NC does not operate a facility. We foster out of our homes and are often full to capacity. If you must surrender your pet, please consider fostering the dog or cat until they are adopted. Please provide as much notice as possible of the need to surrender your animal. We will get back to you as soon as possible with questions or information. Please keep in mind, Paws for Life NC operates 100% on volunteers, most of whom have full-time jobs. Please be sure you have exhausted all avenues before surrendering (pet pantry for food, trainings for behavioral issues, etc) Thank you for reaching out to Paws for Life NC.

This is a REQUEST to surrender an animal. Please know we are 100% volunteer and do not have a facility; our ability to take in owner-surrendered animals is very limited. If your Pet was adopted from Paws for Life NC per the adoption contract, we require a MINIMUM of two weeks to find a new foster home for your pet. In some circumstances, it may take a little longer, especially around holidays. We will review your request and be in touch with you as soon as possible.
