Adoptions
To submit an Adoption Application, please download,
complete and submit form below:
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, unless otherwise discussed and agreed upon ahead of time. Failure to comply with any of these requirements may constitute grounds for us to take back the adopted animal.
Adoption Fees:
- Cats $50
- Kittens (under 6 months) $60
- Dogs $120
- Puppies (under 12 months) $200
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.

Meet Whirlwind
Hi, my name is Whirlwind, and I was born in mid-August of 2022. I am a great fella that is always ready to play and explore. I would love a home with another playmate but if I was the only cat I would be ok too as long as my people give me lots of loving! Given a proper introduction I could live in a home with other cats, children or even a cat friendly dog. I am neutered, vaccinated including rabies, microchipped, wormed, and negative for FIV/FelV.

Meet Marlee
Hello my new friend, I'm Marlee. I am a young girl born around the end of May 2022 and best guess at breeds would be Lab/Terrier mix. I'm a very sweet and cuddly pup that would love to have someone to run and play with. I'm not picking, they could have two or four legs as long as they enjoy playing I'm happy. Currently I am not housetrained but will pick up on whatever you'd like to teach me quickly. Given proper introductions I could live in a home with other dogs, cats, and children. I am spayed, vaccinated including rabies, microchipped, and wormed.
