Before the Adoption


All prospective adoptive families are interviewed before being allowed to adopt a cat or dog into their home.  Questions are asked of the family to determine what type of animal, personality, characteristics, etc. they are interested in.

Dog

 

If you are interested in adopting, view our adoptable animals and then complete one of our online application forms if you see one that you would like to add to your family.

Cat Form      Dog Form

 

Animals are provided with necessary veterinary care from the time they arrive in KAR. All animals are checked for fleas and ear mites and treated appropriately. All animals receive immunizations as required. All animals are given general dewormer medicine. Cats and kittens are checked for feline leukemia, and dogs and puppies of appropriate age are checked for heartworm and treated accordingly. ALL ANIMALS ARE SPAYED/NEUTERED PRIOR TO ADOPTION.


At the Time of the Adoption


An adoption form is completed which indicates the dates/type of vet care we have provided to the animal and also spells out your commitments as an adopter.  A fee is collected:

 

Kittens under 6 months $100
Cats 6 months and older $50
Puppies under 6 months $225
Older Puppies and Adult Dogs under 5 years $195
Adult Dogs 5 years and older $150
Please read "Our animals are a bargain."
