Available Pets

Pets available for adoption are listed on Petfinder.org, a site dedicated to providing legitimate shelters around the United States a place to list their pets online.

Adoption Fees

Adoption fees are as follows:

Kittens/Cats: $100

Puppues/Dogs: $275

Our adoption fee includes spay or neuter and vaccinations for dog or cat. All dogs are tested for heartworm, and cats are tested for feline leukemia/aids.

We try to have all animals fully vetted when they are adopted. If the animal is too young, the animal must be brought back to one of our vets for final services.
