Meet the Exotic Animals of TLHS
Below are adoptable exotic animals currently in the care of TLHS.
Please Note: We operate on a first-come, first-served basis and do not place adoption holds on animals. Please see the information below our viewable animals for more details on why we do not place adoption holds.
Why We Do Not Place Adoption Holds
We operate on a first-come, first-served adoption basis and do not place holds on animals. Here’s why:
- Missed Adoption Opportunities: Holds can cause animals to miss their chance at adoption if a family changes their mind. This slows down the process for pets who could have already found a home.
- Limited Veterinary Access: TLHS currently does not have an in-house veterinarian. This has slowed down the spay/neuter process, so we focus on adopting out animals who are already fixed and ensuring unaltered pets are spayed or neutered before going home.
- Prioritizing Ready-to-Adopt Pets: Many fully vetted pets are overlooked because of interest in unaltered animals based on color or breed. We want to give every ready pet the best chance at finding a family.
- Efficiency Saves Lives: By keeping adoptions moving quickly, we can free up space and resources to help more animals in need.
We appreciate your understanding as we work to ensure fair, efficient, and lifesaving adoptions for all pets in our care.
Not quite ready to adopt but still want to help?
The animals listed on this page are ready for adoption and are seeking permanent, loving homes — not temporary foster placements.
If you’re interested in fostering, we have a separate group of animals who currently need temporary care but are not yet available for adoption and may not be for some time.
