Adoption Incentives

We are pleased to be able to offer additional incentives to adopt our animals. Below are the programs that are currently in operation:

Adult Companion Program: In an effort to provide pet companionship to older adults, the Humane Society will match up cats and dogs age 3 and older with residents age 50 and older. The Adult Companion program pays the up-front costs associated with obtaining a Shelter companion animal. This program not only gives an older adult the chance to have the companionship of a pet, but also provides a loving home to an older Shelter animal. Program subject to funding availability.

Spay/Neuter Incentive Fund: The Humane Society offers assistance to qualified individuals who cannot afford the full cost of altering their pets. Please contact the Shelter for an application.

Sponsored Adoption or Alteration: Friends of the Shelter who volunteer to sponsor the costs associated with adopting or altering an animal. These incentives are posted on the cages at the Shelter.
