IMPORTANT NOTICE: In order to lessen the burden on taxpayers, WCAS has an established price list for animal surrenders, owner reclaims and adoptions.

Animal surrender – $10
Owner reclaim – $25
(animal previously spayed/neutered)
Owner reclaim – $80
(owner agrees to spay/neuter)
Owner reclaim – $150
(owner refuses to spay/neuter)
Adoption* – $50 (cats)
Adoption* – $100 (dogs)
Microchipping – $10
