APES - Reservation Application

This reservation application form is an essential part of our process in ensuring that each animal finds the best possible forever home.

Policy Update (Effective 27/03/2025):
To further safeguard our animals, APES Shelter & Rescue now conducts criminal history background checks. This ensures that our animals are not placed in homes where individuals are prohibited from owning pets due to legal or criminal proceedings.

Mandatory Admin Fee:
Due to the associated costs of conducting these checks, a mandatory £15 Admin Fee will be applied to all adoptions.

Process:

Application Submission: Completing this form allows us to reserve the animal in your name.
Reservation Donation: A minimum reservation donation of £10 per week is required. This donation secures the animal's reservation for an initial period of one week. Should you require additional time, please inform the advisor upon contact.
Home Vetting: Adoption acceptance is not guaranteed. We require a home setup vetting, which can now be conducted remotely via phone or tablet.
Non-transferable and Non-refundable Fees: Please note that all reservation and adoption fees, including the admin fee, are non-transferable and non-refundable.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in helping us find the best homes for our animals. Thank you for your support and engagement in our mission to protect and support exotic animals in need.

How did you find out about us?
Will you allow us to perform home checks? Homechecks are called Vettings. We do this to ensure the animal's needs are met.
Are you ok for us to perform a criminal history background check? * This can affect your application if you say no. Also if criminal history with animals is found your application can not proceed any further, there are no refunds for reservations.
Reservation Fee: We charge a weekly reservation fee of £10 until the adoption is completed. This is non-transferable and non-refundable. All funds help to keep the rescue running and stop the abuse of our reservation system. *
I have read the foregoing and certify that the answers I have given are complete, true and not misleading in any way. You are also aware that we cannot guarantee the health and temperament of the animal. *
