About Adopting

Adoption fees are $80 for dogs, $100 for puppies, $60 for cats and $80 for kittens. Rabbits are $40, pocket pets are $10 and call for pricing on ‘exotic’ pets. However, we will match prices of adoptable pets from other Shelters. All our adoptable dogs and cats are neutered or spayed, have an i.d. chip, have received medical exams and immediate health care, and immunization and medication with the exception of rabies shots.

All pets are adopted on a one-week money-back test drive basis with finalization after one week. An additional $40 vet visit deposit is required and fully reimbursable upon documentation of a vet visit within 3 weeks.

Your adoption packet includes a photo portrait of your pet, their medical and behavior history, a free introductory month of pet health insurance, dog or cat food from Science Diet, Brewies (for dogs) treats, informational handouts tailored to your needs, and many coupons for local pet services.

We require landlord permission for pets if you don’t own your home. Click here to find local pet friendly housing.

We seek to make ideal, life-long matches, and work diligently to match the perfect pet for your family and lifestyle.

Meet adoptable pets Tuesday – Saturday between noon and 6 p.m. at 3 Business Park Road, East of Livingston, Mt.
