Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Update 1/16/2019: Fancy went to a foster home.
The first day (12/31/18) she came in she had so much interest, sponsorship offers, rescue offers, etc.. Everyone wanted to help. We kept her at Granite even though she was found in another town to make it easier for rescue to pull her.
As she waited on her 7 day hold, interest faded and people moved on to the next sad case. Now she is off hold and all the interest is gone. So here she sits.
She is very sweet.
She now comes to us for food and likes to walk around.
She has demodex mange which is not contagious and she is being treated.
We need a foster to get her out of animal control.
Our Adoption Process:
*You must complete an adoption application before meeting an animal.
*We do all checks on references and vet checks.
*Please let your references know we will be calling.
*Once approved, you can set up an appointment to meet any of the animals at the Granite City Animal Control, or the ones in foster homes.
*There will be a meet and greet and then a home visit.
*After that you will sign an adoption contract and pay the adoption fee.
$85 for Rabbits / $80 for Cats / $100 Kittens / $150 for Dogs / $200 for Puppies Six Months & Under
The dog adoption application is located here:

All our animals are completely vetted with the required vaccinations before leaving the rescue. FIV/FeLV testing for cats and Heartworm testing for dogs, spayed/neutered and microchipped.
We are always looking for licensed rescues to pull animals from the Granite City Animal Control. It's a very small animal control. We also save the FIV+ cats, but we don't have a lot of room for all the incoming strays. There are no fees for a rescue to pull. If you can help us, please email us at poundpetsinc@gmail.com
Many times we also get feral cats needing barn homes. You will need to provide shelter and food. Please email us for more information and fill out the cat adoption form.
______________________________________________________________
We are a small foster based rescue but some of our animals are residing at the Granite City Animal Control until they can be adopted, fostered or pulled by another rescue.
Pound Pets Inc Rescue can always use more fosters.
If you are interested in fostering, the foster application is located here:

Pound Pets volunteers cleans the animal control building, we are the caregivers for the animals brought in. Once they come through the door, they become our responsibility. We photograph all animals and post to the Pound Pets Facebook page. We provide them clean kennels, beds, blankets, toys, treats, outside play time, walks and human interaction. We try to comfort the scared, keep the high-energy ones exercised and provide plenty of love and affection to make their time at animal control as less stressful as possible.
Sometimes they get reclaimed by their families and sometimes they don't. If they don't it is our responsibility to find the adopters, fosters or rescues to save them from euthanasia.
We get in sick and injured animals as well. They do not sit in their kennels or cages needing veterinary care. Once we see the need for care they are taken to the vet. Sometimes the illness or injury is minor and the city will cover the bill, Other times when it's not, we do. We do all of this on our own dime. We buy the food, the beds, the blankets, the toys, and all the other things that go into care for the animals. Sometimes things are donated and that is wonderful!! We pay the medical bills that the city doesn't. As with most animal controls, there is a limit on what they will do or cover. At Pound Pets, there is no limit. Broken Bones, Surgery, Parvo, Heartworm, etc., if the animal has a chance the animal is given that chance. This is not a shelter but an animal control.
