Shelter FAQs

Santa Cruz County Animal Shelter is a full scale animal shelter and animal control facility. We are an open door shelter which means we accept any domestic animal, whether stray or owner surrender. We regularly adopt out dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, mice, and from time to time we have birds, exotics, even barn animals. We offer LOW COST Spay/Neuter Certificates to low income residents, as well as low cost Microchipping. We also offer Required Licensing Services, as well at Trap Rentals, and we offer Educational Training Classes.
