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 Leah
My name is Leah and I'm an adult feline born in 2016. I arrived at BAAP when my owner's health declined but I'm ready to find a forever home to love me as much as they did. I can be very shy and like to hide when I'm unsure of my surroundings. Once I am comfortable in my new family in my new home, I like to sit next to you for love and pets. I am de-clawed in the front so I require an indoor only home as I would have no way to protect myself should I be outside. In my previous home I lived with another cat (Sadie) but have not been around dogs or children. I am spayed, vaccinated including rabies, wormed, microchipped, and negative for FIV/FelV.

Meet Cali
Hi! My name is Cali and I love you already! Cali is a sweet princess who is ready to tap dance her way into your heart. She has tons of energy to run and play. She loves to play with all the toys and loves to be the center of attention. Cali has a congenital skin disease called ichthyosis, which means she was born with a defect in the way her skin cells mature, causing the large scale/flakes across her whole body. There is no cure and symptomatic treatments can help manage secondary infections. Don't let that scare you away, while Cali does require a little more than your average dog, it is mostly making sure she gets a bath regularly and medication when needed for secondary infections. She has been spayed, vaccinated including Rabies, de-wormed, tested for heart worms, and micro-chipped.
