Absolutely. c: You're completely free to do that, if it's your agency.

How do you make an adoption centre??? Do you do it on a thread because I like the idea of a player version of the pound (sort of)

I hope to run an adoption agency on Chicken Smoothie. If interested, please PM me for a job. Looking for: 2 artists and 2 coders, because I will run it. If someone wants to, they can help me run, just PM me with your name and what you want to be.

You'd have to do it offsite and have a thread somewhere on CS, but you can do that if you don't mind setting it up. C:

I have quick question: Am I allowed to have more than one Adoptable Agency/Shop?

Does anyone have any tips on how to attract people to an adoption agency? I read the whole post, but I still need help. I started an adoption agency with dolphins, bu no one seems to want to adopt any. Is this normal? Does it take a few days before people start coming?

First, it does take several days. Weeks, even. It's hard to attract enough people to get adoptions going.
Second, there are some species that are difficult to adopt out, while others are super easy. Try to connect with other aquatic species adoptables - fish, whales, and so on - to get the attention of the people most interested in getting that kind of character. c: It's hard to bring people who prefer certain types of animals - like land creatures such as horses and dogs - to buy into a species that, at the moment, they might never be able to use. But to someone who has a few fish and whales, dolphins would be more than likely very welcome. :3

Oh, Ok. I was planning to add more creatures eventually. My adoptable place is called "Paradise Pets" so it's going to be all ocean creatures :)

Are we allowed to have more than thread for an adoption center?
So, a thread for each adoptable? An archive thread?
I left. If you need to contact me my tumblr is here
