Adoption

Are you looking to adopt a cat, dog, rabbit or any other type of domestic animal? You can come to the Burlington Animal Shelter at 2424 Industrial Street or visit our Petfinder website to see pets that are looking for homes.

Cats and Dogs That Need Homes

The Burlington Animal Shelter has several cats and dogs waiting to find permanent homes. Cats of any age cost only $135.01 to adopt and dogs are $209.93. All cat and dog adoptions come with:

• age-appropriate vaccinations
• an anti-flea and deworming treatment
• a microchip for identification
• a free external veterinary exam with a local veterinarian (see list below) 
• a free bag of Hill's Science Diet cat food with a $5 coupon for your next bag
• $25 gift card from Ren's Pet Depot (while supplies last)
• six weeks of complimentary veterinary medical insurance
• a cat carrier to take your cat home in

If you are not satisfied with your adopted pet, you may return it to the shelter within 14 days of the date of purchase and receive a full refund.

A new pet adopted from the Burlington Animal Shelter is entitled to a free physical examination by a local veterinarian listed below within three days of purchase. These services are provided at the locations listed below.  Please make an appointment before visiting the veterinarian. 

During the Adopt-a-Cat event this October, adopt a cat and receive a special gift bag filled with goodies for your new pet.
