Cities, Towns, and/or Counties We Serve:

The Burlington County Animal Shelter is a place where county residents can take stray and unwanted animals. The Animal Shelter is a line of defense against the spread of Rabies by removing unwanted and stray animals from local communities. In the event that an animal poses a threat to people’s health, the Animal Shelter is responsible for quarantining the animal for further evaluation.

Contact your municipality for information on free Rabies vaccination clinics in your community.

If your animal is lost, please call the shelter and inquire if the animal has been brought in.

$60 for Kittens less than 6 months
Contact the shelter for other rates.

Adopters will need to fill out an Adoption Application and be approved before taking a pet home.

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder? When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
