In general most shelters private and public funded seem too be ran by persons who think they are running human adoption agencies. I'm thinking Animal Planet must stay on their TV 24/7 especially Animal Precinct. Craigslist under pet giveaway is even worse in some cases. We got our last dog that way but it took a month to find a person who didn't want home inspections and answering a thousand irrelevant questions.

Best bet really is asking your Vet. Generally they either have animals dumped on them needing homes or know serious persons that are wanting good homes and you don't have fill out applications and deal with Kooks etc.

I wish they would focus on the person seeking the adoption. A few questions is all it takes to know if someone is capable of the adoption. Likewise, those not obviously capable can be educated on what’s needed.

I have done it both ways, dogs and cats, and prefer the get to know/educate to the inquisition every time.
