My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Benton is looking for his new best friend for life! His prior owner could no longer care for him and took him to the shelter.   

All the shelters are full and he spent six weeks in his kennel waiting, but no one came and picked him. So he came into foster care and loves being in a home again! He is housebroken and happy!  

He likes to play ball and keep away! He is curious and loves children! He seems to have not been around cats before, but does not hurt them, just wants to sniff and corner them, so not recommending him as good with cats. 

If you are looking for a companion who will love you and brighten up all your days, Benton would love to meet you! Rescue a dog who is easy to love! Adopt Benton!

Adoption fee- $150  (includes 6% State Sales Tax)

Our pets are fostered in volunteers' homes, not at a shelter facility. Please call our Adoption Center to schedule a meet and greet: 502 863-3279. Or send an inquiry via this website.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

A cat or kitten only leaves its foster home ONCE an adoption application has been approved. Each is spayed/neutered and has completed all required vetting per our protocols, prior to going to it's adoptive home.


SCHS vetting for foster cats and kittens includes: spay/neuter, current on shots, FeLuk/FIV test neg. (FeLuk test neg. only for kittens under 5 months of age), Rabies vaccination (cats over 6-months of age), Frontline and/or Revolution treatment, and HomeAgain Microchip. You get all the vet records for your new family member, and a starter bag of food too!

Go meet their pets

All Scott County Humane Society pets are in volunteers' foster homes. We do NOT have an intake facility and are NOT the Scott County Animal Shelter. All animals in our care are from the Scott County Animal Shelter, an open-admission, county-run facility.


We do adoptions through online listings on websites such as this one, as well as most Saturdays from 11am to 5pm at the PetSmart in Lexington at Hamburg-Pavilion! We also do adoptions at the SCHS Center in Georgetown in the Indian Acres Shopping Center.
