Additional adoption info

If interested in adopting a pet from our shelter you will need to fill out a request to adopt. There will be a overnight wait to get this approved. If approved, there is an adoption fee and if not spayed or neutered, a deposit is required. Your deposit is returned after the animal is spayed/neutered. All animals adopted from the shelter MUST be spayed/neutered. Dogs arriving at the shelter receive DA2PP and Bordetella. Cats receive a vaccine for Rhinotracheitis-Calici-Panleukopenia-Chlamydia Psittaci. The animals at our shelter have been picked up stray. Please remember this when requesting additional information about the animals. Questions can be emailed to emporiakansasanimalshelter@gmail.com

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
