  • Business Hours
    - We are a volunteer-run facility so we do not have regular business hours. Visits to our facility are by appointment only. - We showcase adoptable dogs and cats every Sunday at our facility in Skiatook! Check out our Facebook page for events and schedules.
  • Where can I see your available dogs and cats?
    - We are a foster-based organization so the majority of our animals are not housed at our facility. You can meet available pets at our weekly adoption events. - Check out our Facebook and Instagram for available animals, events, and schedules. We also set up meet and greets with approved applications.
  • When are adoption events?
    - Typically adoption events are held every Sunday at our facility. Check our Facebook page for special events and schedules.
  • How long should I wait on a reply from my adoption application?
    - Due to the volume we receive and the small amount of volunteers who process them please allow 7-14 days for a response to your application.
  • What do you look for in an application?
    - Your reason for wanting to adopt. - Level of care of current pets and veterinary references. Please have references and records ready to enable quicker processing times. - Responsible devoted homes prepared for a lifelong commitment.
  • What does my adoption fee cover?
    - Adoption fees help us recuperate just SOME of the money we spend on our animals. Every SPACAR dog and cat is screened for heartworms/tick/infectious diseases, vaccinated, dewormed, started on preventatives and spayed/neutered. All dogs are microchipped and cats can be for $10 extra. Your adoption fee also helps us save other dogs and cats with illnesses and injuries that can be costly.
  • Will I know if I'm not the selected applicant for an animal?
    - Intake coordinators try to notify each applicant on their application status as quickly as possible. If you have not heard anything after 14 days please follow-up! - Be sure your email address and phone number are correct. We typically respond by email!
