Adoption process
Adopting from Cork

When you find an animal you'd like to meet, contact West Cork Animals directly using the contact details in the sidebar. TailHarbor doesn't take any role in the adoption itself — we just make it easier for you to find the animal in the first place.

Can I adopt from West Cork Animals if I live in another country?

West Cork Animals typically handles the vetting, chipping, and passport.

Typical fees in Ireland cover the animal's pre-adoption veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, microchip, pet passport).
