Chicago Animal Care & Control

Additional adoption info

If you are interested in adopting an animal, visit Chicago Animal Care and Control in person at 2741 S. Western Ave. from 12 pm to 5:30 pm daily. Visitors arriving after 5:30pm will still be able to view animals in Pavilions A-B-C & cat adopts until 7pm.

* The adoption fee for all dogs and cats is $65.
* You must be 18 years or older & have a valid government-issued photo ID
* Please note: We prefer to meet all family members on adoption day and if you are adopting a dog have another dog at home, we encourage you to do a meet and greet with your dog. After meeting and selecting an adoption candidate, a meet and greet appointment will be scheduled for you to bring your resident dog in at a later date. CACC is not able to perform meet and greets between dogs and cats at our facility.

When you arrive...
* Sign in with your photo ID at the security desk then check in with the front desk for a questionnaire
* We’ll quickly review your questionnaire and then you’ll be invited to meet our animals
