Things to Know Before Adopting a Small Pet

Before You Fall in Love:

Our goal is to set you and your new pet up for success! Adopting a pet can be a great experience for you and your family. A new pet can instantly warm your heart as they join your family. A new pet can also be a challenge if you have not considered all the factors before you adopt.

  • Have I talked about adopting a new pet with everyone in my household?
  • Do I have the financial resources to care for a pet?
  • Are there any restrictions on the kind or number of pets I can have where I live? If you rent, please bring a copy of the rental’s pet policy, lease, or letter from your landlord.
  • Keep in mind that in order to adopt from the Heritage Humane Society, you must be at least 18 years old and show a current photo ID.
Open Hours
  • Open Daily from 12 PM - 4:30 PM.
Surrender Hours
  • Please call at least 24 hours in advance to schedule your surrender appointment (757-221-0150 ext.0). Our surrender hours are frpm 8:30 AM - 11 AM, by appointment only. Stray animals do not require an appointment, but when possible please call ahead.
