About North Knox Animal Shelter

We are a new 501c3, within a temporarily foster affiliated Animal Shelter. We are a no kill shelter, that serves our rural communities and towns.

We rescue and accept homeless and abandoned (dumped) animals and see to their needs as is within our capabilities. currently we additionally do demonstrations to the public on responsible pet ownership, rescue and proactively engage the public awareness on the value of Spay and Neuter.

North Knox Animal Shelter's adopted pets

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Bicknell, IN.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

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.
