Adoption Appointments: Appointments are available for potential adopters with approved applications. There is no obligation to adopt at an appointment. These adoption appointments are a great way to spend uninterrupted time with our staff and your potential new pet to get all the information you need to make your decision about bringing your new friend home! We also offer meet-and-greet appointments any day of the week except Sundays for approved applicants. Please note, applications can take 2-3 business days to process. 
Cats can be viewed Tuesday and Thursday from 12-5pm and Saturday's 12-4pm.
​
Dogs are able to be viewed on Tuesday's and Thursday's from 4-5pm. We cannot take them out of the kennel unless there is an approved application on file.

Adoption Rates

Every animal is unique. The appropriate pricing is listed In each animals bio. 

What is included with my adoption?

• Free exam at a local veterinarian chosen from our list of 26 participating providers.
• At minimum, we include the first distemper combination vaccine and deworming treatment.
• In addition, many of our pets for adoption are already altered, fully vaccinated and micro chipped, so please ask us what has already been done when you find a pet you think you would like to adopt!

As part of our mission to prevent pet over-population, the shelter requires all animals to be altered before they are adopted. Though we have many animals that are already altered, we are financially unable to spay and neuter every animal. Therefore, if you have chosen an unaltered animal, the shelter will require you to put down a $50 spay/neuter deposit (cat) or a $100 spay/neuter deposit (dog), at the time of adoption, which will be refunded once proof of the spay/neuter has been presented.
