Andie: Adoption pending

Meet adoptable pets at 510 Organ Ave. (Call 913-335-0788 to make an appointment to meet adoptable pets and/or see hours of operation.) Email fortleavenworthstrayfacility@gmail.com for an adoption application. Some of our pets are living in foster care, thus appointments will be necessary to meet those pets. Adoptions are NOT made on a first-come, first-serve basis. We try to match our adoptable pets with the most appropriate home, not necessarily with the first person to apply. Additional time in processing applications may apply when necessary, and, especially, when many applications are received. Usually only the approved applicant will be notified. Pets in our care are loved and well cared for. They will have already been spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, flea treated, and whatever else they might need by the time they are available for adoption. Military affiliation is not necessary to adopt a pet from the Stray Facility. ADOPTION FEES: $100 for kittens and cats $155 for puppies and dogs The Fort Leavenworth Stray Facility houses animals available for ADOPTION, which include stray dogs and cats turned in by Housing and Military Police, as well as relinquished pets turned in by residents of Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Please note, relinquishments are only available to RESIDENTS of FORT LEAVENWORTH. If you live off post and need to relinquish a pet, you will need to contact your area humane society, rescue or animal control shelter. RELINQUISHMENT FEES: $50 for already fully vetted pet $75 for pet needing vet care, such as spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, etc. COME VISIT US!
