Dogs & Cats Forever, Inc. No-Kill Animal Shelter

Description:
|
Dogs & Cats Forever, Inc. rescues abandoned, neglected and unwanted pets in effort to eliminate a growing population of homeless animals in St. Lucie County. The animals at our facility are available for adoption to loving homes and those animals considered un-adoptable will live out their life comfortably at our 10.2 acre no-kill facility in western Port St. Lucie. Since 1997 we have saved and re-homed over 1,800 dogs and 1,000 cats. Our shelter is a 501(c)(3) Non- Profit organization which relies strictly on public donations and volunteers. Today, we are recognized as the only No-Kill Animal Organization in St. Lucie County and we are awarded by our efforts everyday by a simple lick on the face or purr from our furry companions.
To ensure our animals are placed in their forever homes we temperament test every dog/cat and create a profile for each individual animal. Our animals are kept up to date on their vaccines, are altered once they reach 6 months of age and are also kept on monthly heartworm and flea and tick preventative. The dogs are also microchipped and all of our animals are seen by our vet before they are listed as available for adoption. The animals at our facility are considered and treated as part of our family and we want to be 100% certain their new family will do the same.
In addition to filing an adoption application we also require an adoption fee which includes the animals spay/ neuter, all up to date vaccinations (incl. rabies tag and certificate), de-worming, blood tests, a recent vet exam, a copy of the animals medical records and (in the dogs only) ID microchip implants. Our dog/puppy adoption fee ranges from $85.00 and up and our cat/kitten adoption fee is $75.00 and up depending on the animal and medical expenses. Since we have been doing the temperament tests and have implemented a more thorough adoption procedure, our adoption rate has increased greatly and previous adopters keep coming back! So if your family is looking for a new companion please view our adoptable pets on our pet list or visit our shelter today.
The staff and animals at the shelter would like to thank all of the people who have volunteered and/or given us donations in the past. All of the donations are greatly appreciated and used only towards the animals\' needs. We are in need of volunteers to come up to the shelter on the weekends and/or during the week. We also need volunteers to help drive the animals down to Petsmart (in Jensen Beach) on Sundays and to help out at our social events. If you are interested in volunteering please e-mail us, we need the help and the animals appreciate all the attention they receive. The only volunteer requirements are that you must be at 14 years of age and have a Volunteer/Hold Harmless Form filed prior to starting.
Our No-Kill, Non-Profit Animal Shelter has implemented a very successful Sponsorship Program which allows families to donate $5 a month towards the care of a shelter animal. Your small contr
