Meet Agnus and Camper: Two Adoptable Pets at Jackson County Animal Shelter
The Jackson County Animal Shelter, located at 3770 Spring Arbor Road, is home to a variety of pets waiting for their forever homes. Among them are two特别的 animals that might just capture your heart.
Agnus: A Friendly and Curious Dog
Agnus is a 5-year-old American Staffordshire mix who was found as a stray. He weighs around 46 pounds, making him a medium-sized dog. Agnus is known for his happy and excited demeanor when he comes out of his kennel. He is house trained and gets along well with other dogs, even forming friendships in the cat room.
He is curious about his surroundings and alert, but not overly vocal. Agnus is also learning basic commands and is eager to please his future owner. His friendly nature and willingness to adapt make him a great companion for families or individuals looking for a loyal pet.
Camper: A Beautiful and Independent Cat
Camper is a one-year-old solid black female cat with a small patch of white on her chest. She was also found as a stray and had an injury on her neck, which has since healed completely. Camper is affectionate and enjoys being petted, often coming to greet people. However, she isn’t particularly fond of other cats or dogs, so she may be best suited as an only pet.
Her big gold eyes and charming personality make her a delightful addition to any home. Camper’s independent nature means she will likely thrive in a quiet environment where she can take her time getting to know her new family.
Adoption Process and Costs
For those interested in adopting a dog from the shelter, an application must be submitted online. A meet-and-greet with the dog is also required to ensure a good match between the pet and the potential owner. For cats, a walk-through of the cat room is available to observe how the cat reacts to different environments.
The adoption fees vary depending on the size of the dog. Medium and large dogs cost $150, while puppies and small dogs are $250. These fees include vaccinations, microchipping, and sterilization. For cats, the adoption fee is $60 for one cat and $80 for two. This includes necessary tests, vaccinations, and spay/neutering.
How to Get Involved
Visiting the shelter in person is always recommended, as it allows potential adopters to interact directly with the animals. However, there are other ways to get involved. Online applications can be submitted through the shelter’s website. Alternatively, you can fax your application to 517-780-4750 or email [email protected].
The shelter is open Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., with extended hours on Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. On Saturdays, the shelter is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. More information about the shelter and its adoptable animals can be found on its Facebook page.
