The
CATS and
DOGS listed on our web page
are just a few of the many animals available for adoption. Older animals and those in foster homes are listed separately.
If you are thinking about adopting a pet please visit the shelter.
If you are interested in one of the cats or dogs listed on the web please make a note of the name

Conditions of
Adoption
Please note that the cost of adoption has changed and now includes the fee for spaying/neutering. Previously, puppies and kittens were spayed/neutered at the owners expense.
Also, in order to match people and pets it
is necessary for all potential adopters to complete an adoption application form.
Adoption Costs
-
Cats $60.00 (includes spaying/neutering)
- Kittens $75.00 (includes spaying/neutering)
- Dogs and puppies $95.00 (includes spaying/neutering)
- Selected breeds $140.00 (includes spaying/neutering)
Spaying and Neutering
All animals 6 months of age or over must be spayed/neutered. This cost is covered by the
Kingston Humane Society. At the time of adoption an appointment is made with the vet clinic of
the adopters choice.
Vet clinics state that the rabies vaccine must be given before surgery, either the day of, or 10 days
prior, which is at the adopters expense.
Any adult animal already spayed/neutered just needs the rabies vaccine.
Shots given at the shelter before adoption

- FVR: Feline viral rhinotracheitis
- Calici virus
- Panleukopenia
- Chlamydia
Dogs receive:

Adopters are responsible for the second set of shots which must be done a month after the

Any animal adopted from the shelter is under a two week trial period. If the adoption does
not work out then it can be returned to the shelter and the adopter has 1 month to choose another
animal. There are no refunds.
