See an animal you like? Download the applications below and bring them with you to visit your potential pet at our shelter. Also find us on http://www.petfinder.com/shelters/IL256.html All applications are subject to approval. Approval process requires 2 - 5 business days. If a pet requires spaying/neutering or any other medical attention, the pet may not leave the shelter for up to 14 days after application approval. Adoption Prices:
Please note that we accept cash and checks and credit cards through paypal. (no starter checks or 3rd party checks). Thank you. There will be a $50 deposit required on all unaltered kittens and puppies that will be refunded to you upon receipt of spay or neutering. There will be a 25% discount on the adoption fee of any animal 5 years old or more. As a No-Kill shelter, we can only take in new animals as current ones are adopted and space allows. You should not have any problem finding a match, as we always have a wide variety of cats and dogs waiting for a new home. You are welcome to come out to the adoption center and visit with the animals. Please remember that a shelter environment is sometimes stressful and the animals may exhibit anxiety through shyness, excitability, and excessive barking, or whining. Ask the staff to remove the animal from his or her kennel so that you can visit with the animal in a private setting or in the fenced one-acre play area. Please feel free to take your time and you can always choose to come back for additional visits with a particular animal.
Everything is Better with a Buddy! Now, when you adopt a homeless animal from the KCHF you can take home a buddy for 1/2 price! Adopt the first animal at our regular adoption cost and you can adopt a buddy (a second animal) for half the price of his/her adoption fee. Any combination that fits your family will work! Want two cats? How about a dog and a cat? Two dogs? Mix and match and bring home a pair that will be buddies for life! Your adoption fee helps to defray the $8,000 a month operating expense. A 25% Spay & Neuter Discount Certificate valid at local animal hospitals is included with the adoptions of unaltered animals. All animals are current on their vaccinations, wormed if needed, and microchipped. When you adopt an animal from the KCHF you will receive an adoption kit filled with goodies and information (including samples of dog and cat food, and/or treats and coupons), free I.D. tags, subscription to our newsletter, and membership for a year.
