Most shelters require adopters to complete an application. In addition to basic contact information, the application is likely to include questions about the following areas:
Your housing situation (renting vs. owning)
The number and ages of any children in your household
The number and type of other pets you may own
The name and contact information of your veterinarian
Your previous experience with pets
Your activity level, lifestyle, and expectations for a new animal
