Adoption fees, and where they go

We're a nonprofit, no-kill shelter, not a pet store. We don't sell animals, and we don't give them away, every adoption fee goes right back into their care. Before any pet goes home, they're already spayed or neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped, which would cost far more than the fee at a vet's office on its own.

Many of our animals also live with us for weeks or months, with daily food, shelter, cleaning, and medical care, while they wait for the right family. So honestly, the fee doesn't cover what we spend on a single animal, it just helps us keep caring for the next one.

And if money is tight, please talk to us. We never want cost to stand between a pet and a loving home, call us at 217-737-4042.

🎉 Volunteers save $50 off any adoption fee, one more reason to lend a hand.

📋 What You'll Need

  • Be at least 18 years old with valid photo ID
  • Consent of all adults in your household
  • Written landlord permission if you rent
  • Ability to provide a stable, loving home

Come meet the animals during open hours. That's the best first step. When you find your match, we'll walk you through a short application; final approval is at our team's discretion.
