For the next 4-5 Saturdays, beginning August 15, we’ll be taking a short break from our pet adoption Meet & Greet events at the Petco store. But don’t worry — our adoptable pets aren’t going anywhere, and there are still plenty of ways to find your new best friend! ❤️🐶🐱
✨ **We encourage you to make an appointment to meet our shelter pets.** This helps us give you and the pets more time and attention without the hustle and bustle of a store event.
🏡 **Want to meet one of our foster pets?** Appointments **and an approved adoption application are required** before meeting fostered pets.
📬 **Adoption applications are still being accepted!** You can submit yours:
• By email
• By USPS mail
• In person at the shelter
So while our Saturday Meet & Greets are taking a little vacation, **the search for forever homes continues!** 🐾💕 Keep watching our page and socials for adorable faces, adoption updates, and — hopefully — lots of **“Gotcha Day!”** announcements! 🎉🐾

Bond County Humane Society is based on the core value that all animals deserve to be treated in a humane manner. Dogs and cats with no homes need temporary shelter until a permanent, loving home can be found for them. We believe that awareness and education allows animals and humans to come together, for the benefit of both.

Your involvement volunteering, fundraising, and adopting can greatly impact our efforts to reduce pet overpopulation and care for animals in need.
Shelters work very hard to create welcoming environments for the animals and their visitors, but nothing is the same as a home. Animals behave differently at home as they are more comfortable and able to show their personalities to potential new families. When pet parents go this route, they oftentimes find an alternative home for their pet with family or friends. We recommend utilizing Rehome by Adopt-a-Pet to rehome your animal.
