Adopt a Pet from the Saskatoon SPCA
Welcome Home a New Family Member
Looking to expand your family with a furry friend? The Saskatoon SPCA, a non-profit animal shelter in the heart of Saskatoon, is the ideal place for pet adoption. Our facility is filled with loving pets, including adorable kitties and loyal dogs, all waiting for their forever homes.
Why Adopt?
Choosing to adopt a pet means more than just gaining a companion. When you adopt from the Saskatoon SPCA, you give a second chance to a deserving animal.
Every adoption creates room for another animal in need, supporting our mission to care for as many pets as possible!

Find Your New Best Friend
Please Note:
At the Saskatoon SPCA, our mission is to find loving homes for animals as swiftly as we can, ensuring they move from a shelter setting to a warm, caring environment in the shortest time possible. We operate on a 'first-come, first-served' basis for all adoptions.
Please note that submitting an application for an animal does not guarantee adoption. While we deeply appreciate your interest in providing a forever home for our animals, our process is designed to remove barriers to adoption and ensure that animals don’t remain stuck in the shelter system.
Due to the high volume of applications and the dynamic nature of animal adoptions, we encourage potential adopters to act promptly.
We are committed to supporting you through every step of the adoption journey and thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Together, we can make a significant difference in the lives of these animals.
