Adoptions
Fairmount Pet Shoppe is committed to saving pets' lives. We work with several shelters and rescue groups to find loving families for homeless pets. We always have cats for adoption at the shop from rescue groups including, Green Street Rescue in Fairmount. We also have regular adoption events where a larger number of pets are available including cats and dogs, and sometimes bunnies. The dates of these adoption events will be announced on our home page. If you are thinking of adding a pet to your life, think adoption first!
Adopt and Save
We want to thank you for saving a pet's life, so for every pet adopted at Fairmount Pet Shoppe you will save 15% off your first purchase. If you have adopted a pet from another location such as a shelter or rescue group, we still want to thank you! Bring in proof of adoption and you will save 15% off one purchase. We have all the supplies you need for your new pet including carriers, crates, litter boxes, beds, bowls, and food.
In this section you will find pets that are currently for adoption. If you are interested in taking one of these pets home, please call or stop by the shop.
Meet Our Adoptables: Theodore

Theodore is a very shy little guy. He loves ear pets and chin scratches! He would do best on his own, and likes to have places to hide when he gets overwhelmed. Theo is sweet and playful, but takes a while to come out of his shell and feel totally comfortable. He was rescued at 17th & Brandywine. He needs a loving home with lots of cozy nooks, gentle cuddles, and yummy food.

Meet your new gray friend, Duffy! When she was rescued outdoors by Green Street Rescue, she had already been previously spayed. We don’t know what her whole past life could have involved, but we do know that she is comfortable around humans and has been enjoying her time indoors. Duffy has one funny quirk – she’s a very messy eater! She loves to move her food out of the bowl onto the floor, then eat it from there. She’s looking for a home that can forgive her oddities.
