Additional adoption info

We ask that you come down in person to meet our animals, so the right match can be made for you and your family. While we have all of our adoptable pets online, the human-animal bond is one that should be taken seriously when choosing a pet, and a picture will not always mean they are the right choice for your individual situation. To schedule an appointment, give us a call at 661-832-7387 during the following hours to make an appointment: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday.
Regular cat adoption fee is $35. Adoptions include a cat carrier. Regular dog adoption fee is $50, plus dog licensing fees. Contact the shelter or follow us on Facebook for our adoption specials.
