Shelter FAQs
We are a rural county animal control facility, located about 1 hour from both St. Louis, MO and Springfield, IL. Unfortunately, we are almost always at full capacity---meaning 30+ dogs and even more cats. With less than 46,000 people in our entire county, we welcome out-of-town adopters.
We also welcome relationships with rescues who are willing to take transfers. We need you!

We LOVE visitors and adopters from outside our area. We are in Carlinville, Illinois and serve Macoupin County.
Adoption steps
- Visit the Facility and Find a Pet
- Most cats roam free in cat rooms. Dogs are in pens, but we are happy to get them out for a meet and greet with you and your other pets
- Submit Application
- In most cases, applications are reviewed immediately.
- Sign Adoption Contract
- If your application is approved immediately, you can fill out the adoption contract right away.
- Pay Fee
- Adoption fees are $100 for cats, and $175-220 for dogs. Includes spay/neuter, vaccinations and microchip! $12 for tag if Macoupin resident.
- Take the Pet Home
- If dogs/cats are spayed/neutered, they can go home with you same day. If not, arrangements will be made.
Additional adoption info
Our stray animals are held 10 days to see if the owner will claim them. If no one claims the animal, the animal is put up for adoption. We also accept owner surrendered animals (for a fee) if space allows. Also...Due to Illinois state law, no animals can be adopted without being fixed first. So, if the pet you select is spayed/neutered, you can take it home right away. If not, adoption will be finalized after our next spay/neuter clinic.
We welcome donations of cat litter, Purina cat and dog food, martingale collars, leashes, peanut butter, and more. Use our address for shipping from Amazon, Chewy or other site. Or drop off during business hours! Thank you!
