Your new four-legged friend will be spayed/neutered, microchipped and brought up to date on vaccinations. The reduced adoption fees will continue until the shelter population reduces.

Adoptions require approval by shelter staff, and although adoption fees are discounted, donations for animal care are always welcome.

The Ingham County Animal Control Shelter is located at 600 Curtis St. in Mason and is open seven days a week. Adoptable animals are featured on the shelter’s website.
