ADOPTION APPLICATION

​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 Leona

Hi, my name is Leona and I'm a sweet little girl who was born late May of 2023.I came in as a stray with my brother. Right now my favorite things to do are eat, play, and cuddle up to my brother. Even though I was found as a stray and haven't been around other cats, dogs, or children, with proper introductions I should make the perfect fit for your family. I have been vaccinated, up to date with age-appropriate vaccines, wormed, tested negative for Feline FIV/LvK, and microchipped.

Meet Kevin

​Nice to meet you, I'm Kevin. I am a lovable Pit mix that was born in 2019. I was found by Montgomery County Animal Control and they transferred me to BAAP. I was found starving and had tumors in my ears that needed medical attention and I was heartworm positive. It's been a long road to recovery but after having my ear tumors removed I'm finally ready for a place to call home. I would do best in a home that doesn't have a lot of company as I take a little time to warm up to new people. Given proper introductions I could possibly live with other dogs if we are the right fit together but will require a home without cats. I haven't been around children at this time. I am neutered, vaccinated including rabies, microchipped, wormed, and negative for heartworms.

If you would like to give Leona or Kevin a loving home,
just pick up the phone and call:  217.835.2538

If no answer, leave a message (speak slowly & clearly),
​and someone will get back to you.
