Adoption Policy

Take a peek at these wonderful pets we have available for adoption at our shelter. Once you have decided on the pets you would like to meet, call the shelter at 7312854889 and schedule an appointment to meet with them. When you have decided on a purrfect pet for your household, you can fill out an in person application. We will check your references. After the application is approved, we collect the adoption fees: for a dog the fee is $125. For a cat the fee is $75. This fee covers your new pet’s spay/neuter and vaccinations. We will then set up an appointment with our local vet to have your pet spayed/neutered. You will be able to pick up you new pet from the vet’s office. Upon arrival to pick up your new pet, you will request their rabies vaccination. The vet’s staff will administer the rabies vaccination and add your information into their system as the new owner of that pet. Then you may enjoy years of being a responsible pet owner.
