Adopting a friend
The adoption fee is $27.00 for cats, kittens, dogs and puppies. There is a written contract which the adopting owner must sign which requires that any animal which has not already been altered shall be spayed or neutered by a deadline set by the shelter. In cooperation with the Humane Society of Raleigh County, several local veterinarians discount the cost of surgery by as much as 40%, but it is the responsibility of the new owner to schedule and pay for the surgery and mandatory rabies vaccination, which is also discounted. Failure to do so will result in the animal being returned to the shelter.
