Can I adopt from Amici degli Animali del Ticino if I live in another country?
Yes. Cross-border adoption within the EU is straightforward thanks to the EU pet passport system. The animal needs to be at least 15 weeks old, microchipped to ISO 11784/11785, and have a valid rabies vaccination administered at least 21 days before travel. Amici degli Animali del Ticino typically handles the vetting, chipping, and passport. The adopter coordinates the transport — common options include rescue networks (NGO-run road transport), professional pet-transport companies, "flight nannies" (volunteer in-cabin couriers), or self-drive pickups for shelters in neighbouring countries.
Is Amici degli Animali del Ticino a verified shelter on TailHarbor?

What is the adoption fee at Amici degli Animali del Ticino?
TailHarbor does not track adoption fees — they vary by animal and by shelter, and are set by Amici degli Animali del Ticino directly. Typical fees in Switzerland cover the animal's pre-adoption veterinary care (sterilization, vaccinations, microchip, pet passport).
