Reclaim, Relinquish Policy and Fees

RECLAIM FEES

*Proof of Rabies vaccination and ID required for reclaim. If a pet is not current on rabies you will need to purchase a Rabies voucher and schedule an appointment before leaving with your pet. The cost of the voucher is $63 (which includes Exam and rabies vaccination)

OWNER RELIQUISH FEES

The prices for an owner relinquish are as follows:

Single Adult K9/cat/puppy/kitten: $45

Litter of puppies/kittens 8 weeks or older (3 or more): $60

When surrendering multiple animals (that do not fall under the litter of puppies/kittens category) the first is $45 and each additional is $15.

STRAY ANIMALS

All stray animals must be brought in through animal control and JCAS will NOT accept strays directly from the public. It is encouraged that if you encounter a stray animal immediately contact animal control (812-265-2648) and file a report. The JCAS may not have vacancies available and therefore unable to take in the stray immediately.
