The adoption fee is $100 for a cat or dog, and the cost includes the spay or neuter, a 1-year Rabies vaccine, a microchip, light exam, fecal exam, deworming, the DHLPP and Bordatella vaccines for dogs and the FVRCP vaccine for cats.

As part of the adoption process, the Oconee County Animal Shelter will:

  • Search for any citations for animal control ordinance violations in the county where the prospective adoptive family lives.
  • Check property ownership.  If you do not own your home, permission must be obtained from a landlord.
  • Verify with the prospective family's veterinarian that all other animals in the household are current on Rabies vaccinations.
