Surrendering an Animal

SICSA is a limited intake adoption center. To surrender a dog or be accepted into our foster cat program the pet must first be seen by our veterinarian for a physical exam. Dogs must pass a SAFER test, a statewide behavior assessment tool. All pets are assessed an surrender fee, depending on the pets age and past veterinary care.

Dogs:
To surrender a dog, please make an appointment with the kennel manager, 294-6505 extension 11. Bring dog’s veterinary records to appointment.

Cats:
To be accepted in our foster cat program, please call the animal care coordinator, 294-6505 extension 23.

We rarely accept a cat or kitten (in our adoption program) to be housed at SICSA, due to limited space and cat overpopulation. We have about 200 cats in our adoption program on a daily basis, therefore we have instituted a cat foster program for families that need assistance.
