Shelter FAQs

Our Mission: To instill respect, kindness, and compassion for animals as community values.

Our Purpose: To prevent cruelty to animals; to promote animal welfare; to educate the public about the humane care and treatment of animals; to increase public awareness of the companion animal overpopulation issue and to provide solutions; and to provide high quality shelter, medical, and adoption services for animals when necessary.

As an independent charitable organization (501(c)(3)), our name reflects our geographic location only. We are not a County agency and we are not supported by tax dollars. We are not affiliated with any national animal welfare organization.

We operate as an open admission animal shelter and accept companion animals needing shelter, regardless of age, physical condition, or adoptability.

Additional adoption info

■ Our adoption program is for individuals and families seeking a pet to live indoors and provide companionship.
■ You must be 18 years of age or older to adopt an animal.
■ We recommend that all household members meet the animal during the adoption process. In some cases, we will make this a requirement.
■ If you rent or lease your home, we require written or verbal approval from your landlord before you adopt a pet.
■ If you currently own animals, making sure your pets are up-to-date on vaccinations and care can help expedite the adoption process.
■ All cats, dogs and rabbits will be spayed or neutered prior to adoption.
■ Animals must be taken to a veterinarian for a health exam within one week after adoption.
■ If you are in the process of moving, we recommend you delay adoption of an adult cat or dog until after you are settled in your new home.
■ We do not adopt animals as gifts or presents.
■ If you are interested in adopting a large dog (over 40 pounds), we suggest a fenced-in yard.
■ If, at any time, you can no longer care for your pet, you are welcome to return the pet to CCHS.
■ CCHS reserves the right to refuse any adoption.
■ It is the law in Champaign-Urbana and in most outlying townships in East Central Illinois that dogs be either confined or on a leash at all times.
