Adoptions

To adopt you must live within approximately 100 miles of one of our adoption sites (Benld, O'Fallon or Springfield IL), and be at least 18 years of age.  We require that you be physically present to make the final adoption arrangements.  We also require that all cats be kept indoors, and that all dogs be kept in a fenced-in yard, secure pen, or indoors. Failure to comply with any of these requirements may constitute grounds for us to take back the adopted animal.

Adoption Fees:
  • Cats $50
  • Kittens $60
  • Dogs $75
  • Puppies (under 6 months) $125

All pets have been spayed/neutered, are up to date with shots/vaccinations, and have been micro-chipped.  If you have any questions about the animals, or want to know more about the shelter, please call us at 217.835.2538.

Comments:  Isabella was relinquished to the shelter by her owner after it was found that she was not happy sharing her home with the children.  She is a beautiful girl who is looking for a cozy home with an adult family, and you won't have to worry about the furniture because she has been declawed.

Rascal
​​​​​
Code:  2246
Breed:  Chihuahua
Approximate Date of Birth:  07.29.2017
Sex:  Male
Size:  Small
​Color:  Tan
House-trained:  Unknown
Good with Dogs:  Unknown
Good with Cats:  Unknown
Good with Children:  Unknown
Posted:  07.09.18







Comments:  Rascal was relinquished to us by his owner who had no time to provide him with the attention or training that he needed.  He is a cute little guy, very active, but a bit timid until he gets to know you.  He hasn't been around a lot of people or other animals.  Rascal really needs a very patient and understanding owner, who will provide him with the training and attention that he needs.  He was adopted on 06.21.18 and returned on 07.08.18.  He had spent so much of his young life in a kennel that he can be nippy when he doesn't want to go back in.


If you would like to give Isabella or Rascal a loving home, just pick up the phone and dial 217.835.2538.

If no answer, please leave your name & number, and someone will get back to you.
