Occasionally cache [[owner]]s need to transfer ownership of their [[geocache|cache listings]] to other [[cacher]]s.
 
 
 
If the cache is listed on [[Geocaching.com]] you can use their [http://www.geocaching.com/adopt/ adoption form] for self service cache adoptions.
 
 
 
=== To use the facility: ===
 
The current [[owner]] sends an adoption request by entering the cache GC code on a form and then, on the following page, the name of the adopting [[cacher]], along with a note. The adopting cacher will receive an email with a clickable link to complete the adoption.
 
 
 
''An adoption can be cancelled at any time before the adopting cacher accepts the adopton by returning to the page and entering the [[GCxxxx|GC code]]. You will be given an option to cancel.''
 
 
 
If you decide to cancel the adoption before it is completed, the adopting cacher will not receive an additional email notifying of the cancellation.
 
 
 
'''This form cannot be used for orphan caches. Contact a geocaching.com [[reviewer]] if the owner cannot be found.'''
 
 
 
This form also works to adopt [[Travel bug]]s or [[Geocoin]]s
