Jessamine County Animal Care and Control

Adoption Information

All dogs, puppies, cats and kittens available for adoption come to us in a variety of ways, but they all have one thing in common: they need loving and permanent homes.

Adoptable Pets at Jessamine County Animal Shelter

All potential adopters must complete an adoption application so we may determine if the animal you wish to adopt is a good fit for your family. Please click here to fill out an application online, or you may visit our shelter during adoption hours to fill out and submit an application in person.

Canine

$120 ADOPTION FEE for dogs over six months and $150 ADOPTION FEE for puppies under six months includes spay/neuter, microchip, canine license, rabies vaccination, a voucher for a free health exam, bordetella & distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming treatment, heartworm test, fecal exam and flea & tick treatment.

Feline

$60 ADOPTION FEE for cats and kittens includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies vaccination, and a voucher for a free health exam, FVRCP vaccination, flea treatment, deworming treatment, fecal exam and FIV/FELV test.

All canines and felines have their health strictly monitored while in the care of the animal shelter staff. However, due to the stressful situations under which many of these animals arrive, there is always a chance an animal is incubating a disease without showing clinical signs or symptoms. We recommend a visit to your veterinarian within seven (7) days of the adoption date.

Important Information Regarding Adoption

  • Jessamine County Animal Care & Control believes the canines and felines that are adopted out to be in good health, but does not guarantee the health of any animal or assume any financial responsibility for future veterinary costs.
  • When adopting a pet from Jessamine County Animal Care & Control, we expect you to make a lifetime commitment to the care of the animal. If you ever find yourself unable to properly care for this animal, we ask that you make every effort to return the animal to the Jessamine County Animal Care & Control facility.
  • While it is our intent to find permanent, loving, stable and responsible homes for all of Jessamine County Animal Care & Control animals, we do reserve the right to refuse any adoption.
  • We will make contact with the landlord on your application to ensure that you are allowed to house an animal. If a landlord cannot be reached, the application shall be placed in the application pending file until the information we require can be obtained. Pending applications shall be held no longer than seven (7) days.
  • In the event that an individual refuses to provide the required information or gives false information, the application for adoption shall be denied.
