Surrender Your Cat or Dog

We cannot accept dog or cat surrenders at our shelter directly. The online Surrender Form must be completed and an in-person meeting scheduled.

Surrender Fees:

• If admitted, we require a non-refundable surrender fee to defray the costs of a check by a Veterinarian
• Cat: $80.00 (non-refundable)
• Dog: $120.00 (non-refundable)

You will be required to:

• Provide photo identification
• Provide proof of ownership of the animal
• Bring all veterinary records you have for the animal
• Fill out surrender form
• Read and sign the surrender form to give custody to EHS

You will be required to meet a coordinator at our vet for your appointment. You will be required to:

• Attend the appointment with our coordinator
• Provide all veterinary records you have for the animal
• Pay for additional testing if your animal is not up-to-date on vaccinations/tests

The Etobicoke Humane Society has the right to refuse an animal. Our shelter operates solely on donations and cannot accept every animal that is brought to our shelter. An appointment with one of our coordinators does not guarantee that your animal will be accepted.
