Upon arriving at N.O.A.H. dogs immediately start manners training through our in-house training program. Taught mainly by specially trained volunteers, the manners training is designed to better prepare the dogs for their new home. The training also benefits the dogs by offering stimulation and human interaction during their stay at N.O.A.H..  Cats for adoption at N.O.A.H. enjoy the luxury of an open-room cat colony and an outside sun porch. With volunteers whose only job is to nurture the cats, this low-stress area is a welcome reprieve for the cats that come to N.O.A.H..

About our Adoption Program:

Since opening in May 2003, over 11,000 dogs and cats have entered our program and been given a new opportunity for a loving home through our adoption program.  All of our animals come from overcrowded animal shelters.  Once the animals come to N.O.A.H. they will never be euthanized due of lack of space!

We typically adopt 1,600 to 2,300 dogs and cats per year with a 10 day average length of stay.

Unable to be adopted at the first shelter and considered by many as "hard to adopt" because of age, coat color, breed, or size, these deserving animals are now enriching the lives of N.O.A.H. adopters.

As a constant source of support and relief for our many partner shelters, we have demonstrated the benefits of partnerships to help animals.

Pets from our adoption program have graced the homes of people in 20 of the 39 Washington state counties, 12 other states, and British Columbia, Canada.

We have cats available for adoption at various locations!
