Adopt

Santé D’Or offers adoption, fostering, and personal counseling services to the Los Angeles County community. Adopting a pet is a serious, lifelong commitment.

As you know, adopting a pet is a serious, lifelong commitment. For context, in safe indoor-only environments, healthy cats commonly live to age 15 or more. To help you to find the perfect animal companion for you and your family, Santé D’Or offers adoption, as well as fostering and personal counseling services, to the greater Los Angeles community. By adopting an animal from a no-kill rescue like Santé D’Or, you are also helping us provide space to save even more animals from suffering and prevent them from being euthanized at municipal shelters.
