Pet ownership is a serious commitment that the entire household needs to consider and agree to before the
animal is adopted. The City of Taylor Animal Shelter (COTAS) wants to ensure that each adoptive household
is aware of, and willing and able to accept, the physical and financial responsibilities of pet ownership. Not
everyone who desires to own a pet is ready to properly care for one. By completing this questionnaire, you will
aid us in determining if your household is prepared to assume the role of responsible caretaker for a rescued
animal. Thank you!
