Additional adoption info

Once an animal is chosen, you will pay the adoption fee via cash or card. The card does charge a fee to use. If an animal is not spayed or neutered yet we will schedule it with one of our vets or you may schedule it at your own vet and receive a reimbursement of $100 for dogs and $60 for cats. All animals are microchipped except barn cats.
