Give a dog or cat a new home and save two lives... that of your new friend and the life of another abandoned pet that can take up the vacancy at our rescue home. There are so many stray and abandoned animals we cannot take in for lack of space. It is not until those currently housed at our re-homing centre are given new homes that we can help others. You can meet some of the dogs, cats and other animals the ANAA has taken into care right now: Contact us for adoptions at: Tel: 34 91 544 73 76 (Monday to Friday, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.) / adopciones@anaaweb.org

If you adopt a dog from ANAA, it will be delivered to you already vaccinated, de-parasited, tested for leishmaniosis and neutered (if you adopt a puppy or any animal not yet neutered at the time of adoption, this operation will be performed free of charge by our vets). To cover part of these expenses, ANAA requests a €65 donation per animal adopted. When you collect your new pet, this will be fitted with a microchip for identification and vaccinated against rabies, for which the new owner is charged at cost price (€12 for the microchip and €8 for the anti-rabies shot). SEE DOGS FOR ADOPTION

If you choose a cat, ANAA will deliver it vaccinated, de-parasited, with the immunodeficiency and leukaemia certificate, and neutered. The terms of adoption are the same as for dogs (€65), again with microchip and anti-rabies shot (€12 and €8 respectively). SEE CATS FOR ADOPTION

If a pet has not been claimed by its owner within the legally stipulated period of 10 days when it carries no identification, and 19 days if it can be identified, healthy animals of a good nature become eligible for adoption. Anyone wishing to acquire a dog from ANAA must present a document proving his identity and sign an Animal Adoption contract promising to keep the animal in provisional custody, and not to give it away, sell it, abandon it or submit it to any improper treatment or treatment punishable by law. The adopter also promises to feed and care for the animal, and procure the necessary veterinary attention. If there is any failure to fulfil this commitment, the adopter will be required to relinquish his ownership in favour of ANAA. When an animal is adopted, it is fitted with a microchip and vaccinated against rabies. ANAA also supplies a tag engraved with the Association's telephone numbers, which should be permanently fixed to the collar so the animal can be located rapidly if lost. Following the adoption, members of ANAA will check on the animal's condition and have the right to take it back if any fault is observed. Any animal not successfully re-homed remains indefinitely at the Centre, and is given the best standard of life possible for its species at all times.
