The Roanoke Valley SPCA will accept all returned animals within 30 days of adoption. However, returns of animals must be coordinated in advance through the Program Manager. After 30 days, the return of an animal is subject to our normal intake process and cannot be guaranteed. Roanoke Valley SPCA does not provide a refund on returned animals except as noted in the refund policy below. The Roanoke Valley SPCA reserves the right to require owners who return an animal to the Roanoke Valley SPCA to participate in a 30 day waiting period before adoption of another animal.
The Roanoke Valley SPCA will provide a full refund if the animal is returned within thirty (30) calendar days of the adoption date if the animal has been diagnosed by a licensed veterinarian, with such diagnosis documented in writing and supplied to the Roanoke Valley SPCA, with a serious medical illness or condition (including, but not limited to, parvo, distemper, panleukopenia).
RVSPCA Mask Requirements*
The RVSPCA follows all CDC guidance for mask requirements in response to COVID-19; at this point, this includes unvaccinated persons wearing a mask.
- I attest that all individuals joining me for the adoption appointment have been vaccinated.
- I will be joined by individuals who have not been vaccinated and those individuals will comply with CDC requirements and wear a mask.
I certify that the above information is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. I also acknowledge falsification of the above can result in me being denied adoption of an animal. The Roanoke Valley SPCA reserves the right to refuse any adoption.
I understand that completing the adoption application does not guarantee that I will be approved to adopt the animal.
