OWNER SURRENDER
Surrendering an animal is a difficult and emotional process for owner and animal. We strive to manage each case and find the best possible outcome for all involved.
At this time, we cannot accept dog surrenders or surrenders of small animals.

If you are interested in surrendering a cat, please fill out the form below to be added to our waiting list.
When we have capacity for your cat, we will contact you using the information you provide on the form, although it may be several weeks or even months until we can accommodate your pet(s). Please leverage SAFE rehoming sites or try Facebook groups specifically designed for this purpose. Please ensure you ask for a rehoming fee (we recommend a minimum of $20). |

We do not accept unscheduled public drop-offs.
An appointment is required for all animal surrenders.
We work through our registered list as quickly as possible.
We can only take animals that are able to be safely rehomed: animals must be friendly and socialized without known aggression.
You will be required to sign a legal release of ownership and donate a surrender fee based on your ability. This fee helps contribute the cost of care of the animal, such as spay/neuter surgery and vaccinations. A lower surrender fee will be charged to those surrendering an animal that's been spayed/neutered (with proof).
Filling out the Surrender form is the fastest way to get into the surrender queue.
Before surrendering your pet to the Ashtabula Animal Protective League we ask that you exhaust all other options of rehoming your pet with another loving family.
