Ledyard Animal Control

Additional adoption info

1. Call the shelter to make an appointment. The phone number is 860-464-9621.If we do not answer please leave a message.

2. We encourage meet and greets with your other pets and family members. Because many of the pets we take into the shelter have been abandoned or found roaming. we are not aware of their past histories and if they like other dogs, cats, or kids. So, these meet and greets help you to feel comfortable that the pet will be a good fit for your family.

3. If you are a renter, you must provide written permission from your landlord that pets are permitted and that there are no breed or size restrictions on the pets that are brought into the home.

4. An application must be filled out prior to adoption.
Please fill out and return to Ledyard Animal Control being sure you specify if you are interested in a particular pet.

The acceptance of your application does not guarantee an adoption. All pets go to a family that we feel will be the best fit for them. But, we will keep your application and if another like pet comes into our shelter we will still have you on file.

5. Pets that are not spayed will require a $50 adoption fee and will come with a voucher from the Connecticut Animal Population Control Program.

6. The voucher is good for 60 days and voucher provides a one-time sterilization benefit of $50.00 for a male cat, $70.00 for a female cat, $100.00 for a male dog, and $120.00 for a female dog plus two pre-surgical vaccinations.

7. Adopters are required to pay for other services as specified by the veterinarian and for any costs the voucher does not cover. Please get this information from the vet you plan to use as the Ledyard Animal Control does not have that information.

8. Pets too young, as in puppies and kittens, or who may have an illness that might prevent the vet from wanting to do the surgery during the 60 day timeframe, may be granted a medical extension by the veterinarian. Please note, it is up to you to get this extension. Once the voucher expires Ledyard Animal Control cannot issue you another one.

9. All young animals must be sterilized by six (6) months of age

10. All adopters must be CT residents to participate in this program. You may still adopt from us if you do not live in CT, you just can't participate in the Spay/Neuter Program.
