The written approval can be provided in the form of an email or a WhatsApp message. I accept that LAPA will communicate with the vet direct.

5. No later than on the last day of the Trial Period:

a. I shall confirm to LAPA in writing (by email or WhatsApp message) whether or not I want to adopt the Pet.

b. LAPA will confirm to me in writing (by email or WhatsApp message) whether or not they agree for me to adopt the Pet. I will only be able to adopt the Pet if LAPA confirms their agreement for me to do so.

6. If I do not wish to adopt the Pet and/or LAPA do not agree for me to adopt the Pet, I shall return the Pet to LAPA's allocated foster home without delay together with all the items that have been lent to me by LAPA for the duration of the Trial Period.

7. If I do wish to adopt the Pet and LAPA has agreed for me to do so, the ownership of the Pet shall pass to me on the first day after the expiry of the Trial Period, ie on the eighth calendar day from the Date of Possession. This date shall be known as the "Adoption Date".

8. Once the ownership of the Pet has passed to me:

a. I shall return to LAPA without delay all the items that have been lent to me by LAPA for the duration of the Trial Period.

b. LAPA shall send to me without delay the Pet's vaccination card.

9. From the Date of Possession to the Adoption Date:

a. I shall be fully responsible for the Pet and their care. This means that I agree to comply with all relevant laws and regulations concerning welfare, control, responsible ownership and protection of animals including without limitation the Animal Welfare Act 2006 and Codes of Practice issued in England and Wales under that Act . The Pet's welfare needs include providing for the Pet's health, happiness and taking measures to ensure that the Pet's health is maintained, that the Pet is properly housed, fed, watered, socialised, exercised, and receives appropriate veterinary care, including vaccinations and regular worming and flea and tick treatment.

b. I will not allow other people outside my household to care for the Pet without LAPA's written consent.

LAPA does not guarantee the accuracy of the information provided despite making every effort to ensure that it is accurate.

Sterillisation to take place by:

14. I understand that LAPA provides post-adoption advice and support, within reason and within its capabilities, in relation to the questions concerning the Dog's behaviour and care. However, I recognise that LAPA's support and assistance are not a substitute for my primary responsibility for the Dog.

15. If for whatever reason I struggle with looking after the Dog properly or am otherwise unable to keep the Dog, I will notify LAPA as soon as possible. I will make reasonable efforts to keep the Dog and resolve whatever issues I may have in relation to the Dog. I will follow LAPA's recommendations and advice to achieve this. If despite my efforts I am still unable to keep the Dog, I will notify LAPA and LAPA will endeavour to take the Dog back as soon as possible. However, I accept that there may be some waiting time before LAPA can take the Dog back. If I wish to surrender the Dog before LAPA can arrange appropriate foster care for the Dog, LAPA will endeavour to make emergency kennel boarding arrangements for the Dog but I will be responsible for payment of all costs associated with that.

16. If I agreed in my adoption application to make a voluntary donation to LAPA in the suggested amount of £400 for a dog and £180 for a cat, I shall make this donation to LAPA on signing this Agreement.

17. Should the Dog be returned to LAPA at the end of the Trial Period or before then, LAPA will return the donation to me in full.
