Adoptions

All intact animals adopted from our shetler MUST be spayed or neutered within 30 days of adoption, or by the age of six months if adopting a kitten or puppy.

Dog adoptions are $100. If the animal is intact, you will be refunded $25 once the dog has been spayed or neutered by the date given on the adoption contract.

Cat adoptions are $60. If the animal is intact, you will be refunded $25 once the cat has been spayed or neutered by the date given on the adoption contract.

All animals available for adoption have been dewormed, received flea and tick preventative and are up to date on routine vaccinations. Microchipping is included in the cost of adoption.
