Our Dedication to Animal Care and Well-being
Pike Animal Shelter collaborates daily with both city and county animal control officers, alongside the public, to uphold a healthy setting both inside and outside its walls. The shelter operates under established standard operating procedures, guaranteeing that each animal receives top-quality care tailored to its individual needs. Upon intake, every animal is vetted and provided with the best available medical attention. The ultimate aim is a healthy stay for the animal, leading to a successful adoption into a “forever home.”
The shelter strictly adheres to all state and federal guidelines pertaining to animal care and oversight. While the facility does not microchip animals in-house, it is equipped to detect existing microchips upon an animal’s arrival. To better understand their behavior, dogs are frequently temperament, food, and cat tested whenever possible.
The Adoption Journey at Pike Animal Shelter
Adoptions are facilitated daily, with the exception of Sundays. The adoption fee is $100 for cats and kittens, and $125 for dogs and puppies. This comprehensive fee includes essential vaccinations against parvovirus and rabies, as well as deworming medications. Importantly, your adoption fee also covers the cost of spaying or neutering your new pet at a locally approved veterinarian, a crucial step in responsible pet ownership.
