Adopting a pet

How, and why, to adopt a cat or dog from Bath Cats and Dogs Home

Choosing to adopt is just the start of a wonderful journey – we'd love to be a part of it with you. We've plenty of information below so you can decide if adopting is right for you.

Please note that viewing animals is by appointment only; you cannot walk around the catteries and kennels. Instead you start here online and with an application form – choose The adoption process below to find out more.

MARCH 2024 A few of our Rehoming team are in training, so please bear with us as response to applications will be slower than usual. If you have applied then a 'Thank you' screen confirms your application is with us and we will call you within 10 days. Thank you!
