Mobile SPCA

a no-kill, limited intake shelter for dogs and cats

Listing Your Pet on Petfinder.com

The Mobile SPCA is located in Mobile, Alabama. If you are not in our area, please look for a group in your geographic area to list the pet for you.

If you have a pet for adoption and live in the Mobile, Alabama area and would like your pet listed on our Petfinder.com site, your pet will need the following:

  • Must be in good health
  • No history of aggressive or biting behavior
  • If they are already spayed or neutered they have a better chance of finding a home!

If your pet meets all of the requirements above, you must:

  • Email up to three digital photos (jpeg) of your pet to janine@mobilespca.org
  • Download, COMPLETE and EMAIL the Courtesy Listing Info form
  • Email a descriptive paragraph typed exactly as you want it to appear on the website
  • Please put “COURTESY LISTING” in the email subject line. I get hundreds of emails everyday and if COURTESY LISTING is not in the subject line I can easily miss the email and your pet may miss a chance at a home.

The following information will be needed:

  • Pet’s Name
  • Species — pick dog or cat
  • Primary Breed
  • Secondary Breed
  • Is it mixed breed or pure-breed?
  • Gender— pick male or female
  • Size when grown — pick small, medium, large, extra large
  • Age — pick baby, young, adult, senior
  • Is it housetrained?
  • Is it fixed?
  • Is it current on vaccinations?
  • Does it need a home without other dogs?
  • Does it need a home without other cats?
  • Does it need a home without young children?
  • Why are your re-homing this pet?
  • Write a descriptive paragraph about your pet. Really sell the pet. What are his or her great qualities? Why are your re-homing the pet? Any endearing habits? And likes and dislikes? Can it do any tricks?

We must have a good photo of your pet and you must supply the above information in order for us to place your pet on Petfinder.com.

All people calling about pets on the website are referred to the current pet owner for final approval and placement. The pet owner and new owner make all arrangements on transferring pets, etc.

Your pet will be listed for free for three months. If the pet is re-homed or leaves your possession for any reason, PLEASE DO US THE COURTESY OF LETTING US KNOW SO WE CAN REMOVE IT FROM THE WEBSITE. All inquiries will be referred to you; the Mobile SPCA does not screen or require an application for “courtesy listing” animals. It is the responsibility of the owner to determine the best home for their pet.
