Adoptions

Obtaining a pet from the Fayette County Animal Shelter, is a simple and pleasant experience, potential adopters are encouraged to visit the shelter to see the different pets that are available.

The process starts when you find the pet that you like, you then fill out a preadoption application. If the animal that you are interested in has been spayed or neutered and given a rabies vaccination you could take them with you when you leave. In cases where the animal is not completely ready to leave, the application will be placed with the animal’s record. Once the animal has been altered and vaccinated and/or the stray hold is up, you will be contacted and have 24 hours to come and take the pet home.

When you finalize the adoption a contract will then be filled out and payment will be made for the fee of the adoption. All animals adopted from Fayette County Animal Control will have the following prior to them leaving:

  • they will be spayed or neutered,
  • they will have a rabies, DHPP and Bordetella vaccination and implanted with a microchip

New Pet owners are also encouraged to take their contract to PetSmart or Petco in Peachtree City where they will receive a coupon book filled with valuable coupons.
