Adoption Information : How to Choose a Pet
How to Pick Your New Pet
At the Seattle Humane Society, we have a pet for everyone! We have a wide selection of adoptable cats, dogs, rabbits, and small animals. From Siamese cats to adorable kittens, from tiny Terriers to playful Labs, we have animals for all lifestyles.
Choosing to adopt a four-legged family member is a big decision and Seattle Humane Society matches people with animals who fit their lifestyles. Are you looking to adopt a pet for companionship, to have an exercise buddy, or a friend for your children? Our Adoption Advisors are excellent matchmakers and they're here to answer your questions and help you meet your match!
