My story

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

Alvin and Atticus were brought to the shelter after their mother passed away. They were small and grimy and hungry and desperate for some TLC. Atticus still has a habit of sucking on his brother’s ear. The boys are super friendly to humans and need to be adopted together. At one point Atticus got seriously ill and had to be put in a cubby to be treated. Alvin stayed by the door of the community room they were in and begged for his brother to come back until we had to pull him so they could be together. They both started acting more themselves right away. Words fall short to describe these special brothers and their bond.
Atticus was born June of 2024. He is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. As always, cat/kitten adoptions are free will donation to approved applicants. ****The first step in the adoption process is to complete the application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org****

Additional adoption info

All interested parties must fill out an adoption application and be approved prior to adoption. If a family has currently, or in the recent past had pets then a veterinary reference is required. If not then two personal references are required. Our adoption fees for dogs range from $150-$300. Our adoption fee for cats is free will donation. After an adoption has been approved an adoption contract must be signed.

More about this shelter

The ECAS is an all volunteer, no kill shelter. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome pets in need due to neglect, abandonment, abuse or from simply not being wanted! We started in 2010 due to a need in our community. We are currently a foster based organization and we are currently building our new shelter facility. We work hand in hand with other rescue and shelters in the area to help out when and where we are needed.
