Welcome to the internet home of the Grosse Pointe Animal Adoption Society (GPAAS).  Founded in 1997, our mission is to serve the Grosse Pointes and neighboring communities as a foster home based, non-euthanasia, organization that finds suitable homes for indoor companion animals that have been abandoned, surrendered or found.  Many thanks to the people that work so hard to make it happen every day here at GPAAS.


Grosse Pointe Animal Adoption Society (GPAAS) hosts pet adoptions twice monthly at The Neighborhood Club, 17150 Waterloo, Grosse Pointe.  We place approximately 450+ companion animals annually and have placed over 4000 since 1997.


GPAAS is solely supported by public donations and does not receive any federal or state funding.  GPAAS is a recognized 501 C 3 not for profit organization and is listed on www.guidestar.org.  We have a paid Administrator to oversee GPAAS and many dedicated volunteers who help facilitate the organization’s work.  Click here to donate - 

                                                         






Animals for adoption come to GPAAS from owner relinquishments, the Michigan Humane Society, from shelters in need, and occasionally, found strays.  All animals accepted into GPAAS adoption program are professionally screened for health and temperament.  Once accepted, we provide these animals with complete veterinary care,  including age appropriate vaccinations, testing, sterilization and any other care deemed necessary by the veterinarian.  GPAAS is very fortunate to work with many local veterinarians who provide high quality care for our animals.


Since GPAAS is a non-sheltering organization, various foster homes provide the care for our animals and accompany them to the veterinarian and adoption showings.  They are knowledgeable about the pet’s personalities and attributes, making prospective animals and adoptive home pairings very successful. 


GPAAS is a community service organization providing adoption counseling, adoption follow up, training, pet education, student outreach and various other programs to assist those within our community.
