Victoria Texas Pet Adoption Center

Priorities of The O'Connor Pet Center

The Dorothy H O’Connor Pet Adoption Center provides homeless animals a caring environment with the purpose of the adoption of dogs and cats into their own homes. Our new pet adoption facility in Victoria, Texas was established in October 2007 and with the help of our knowledgeable staff, we continue to provide quality service to ensure that your pet leaves healthy and happy.

The Dorothy H O’Connor Pet Adoption Center is dedicated in memory to Dorothy Hanna O’Connor (1907-1992). Having established Victoria’s first community animal rescue center, the new facility builds upon her vision to prevent cruelty to animals through the facilitation of the adoption of all God’s creatures.

Disaster Preparedness for Pets

Planning is the most effective way to mitigate disaster.
If you own pets, you realize that they are family and thus deserve some focus during your family disaster planning.

Pets, just like their owners, require their own supplies that should be placed in a disaster kit.

Planning ahead and designating evacuation routes with alternative shelter information for your family and pets reduces anxiety from a disaster event.

Adoptions

All animals are provided with basic veterinary care to ensure the health of your new pet.

Find the Right Pet For You
The problem with adopting a dog from an animal shelter? The selection of available canine companions can overwhelm you! Man's best friends come in all shapes, sizes, and—of course—personalities.


Every cat is a true individual, though, so it's important to take the time to choose a four-footed friend who's right for you. A cat's personality, age, and appearance, as well as the kinds of pets you already have at home, are all things you should keep in mind when making your selection.
