Great point! Definitely get as much information as you can from the shelter and bring it with you. The shelter I adopted from had all that and made it a priority to give it to me, but I can imagine not all shelters remember!

Wow! Once the adoption was finalized we received his intake paperwork (including the questionnaire from the lady who initially took him in) with his vaccination records, neuter records, and dental records (he’s FIV+ and had had a few teeth pulled by the shelter’s vet).
