This document establishes procedures for the disposition of animals with medical conditions at Orange County Animal Care Services (OCACS). Animals are categorized as either Not Recommended for Adoption (NRA) due to severe medical or behavioral issues, or as Treatable Medical Condition or Adoption Partner Candidate (APC) for conditions that can be treated. For APC animals, veterinary staff will treat medical conditions and potential adopters must sign a waiver acknowledging responsibilities. Rescue groups can claim any animal before euthanasia. The goal is to encourage adoption over euthanasia when possible.
