Areas Henry County Animal Control serves

We are a completely self-funded county department in Cambridge, IL. We pick-up lost dogs and cats that are located out side any city limits, this means that we cover a lot of territory.

Henry County Animal Control's adoption process

Additional adoption info

The only adoption "fee" that we require is $50.00 that goes to the vet of your choice to cover your first vet visit for spay/neuter and all shots.

We do also ask that you give us the name of your vet before you can adopt just so that we can check in with them.

About Henry County Animal Control

Unfortunately, we can't find every lost dog and cat their correct home, that is where you come into play! All of our animals have been at the shelter for 7 days before they are adopted out. This gives their owners time to claim them and also lets us observe them for any behavior or health issues.

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.
