The Clarke County Animal Shelter is a government run 501c3, "open admission" shelter. If you have lost or found an animal you can call the shelter to file a lost/found pet report. Stray animals will be held for a designated hold period, If no owner comes before the end of the hold period the animal will be

come shelter property. When reclaiming an animal, OWNERS MUST PROVIDE PROOF OF OWNERSHIP AND PAY ANY RELATED FEES BEFORE THE ANIMAL CAN BE RELEASED BACK TO THE OWNER. "Open admission" means we receive animals regardless of their behavior, health or level of adaptability, and that we do not turn away any UN-wanted or stray animals from the towns and unincorporated communities of Berryville, Boyce, Millwood, White Post, Waterloo, Calmes Neck, Frog Town, and parts of Bluemont. The shelter takes in roughly 900 animals a year, with the totals growing each year. We take GREAT pride in keeping the shelter clean and inviting and giving the animals in our facility the greatest love, care and attention as possible. This is all managed by two full time employees and volunteers. Along with a small facility comes a small budget. Our local Humane foundation helps us with the unexpected and emergency vet bills and for spaying and neutering of the SHELTER animals. If you would like to help you can be a regular donor or a volunteer! Your donations will help with the present and future care of the animals at our shelter. We do Same day adoptions only if you have already submitted an application and it has been approved. All cat adoption fees are $35 plus the cost of spay/neuter if applicable and dog adoptions are $50 plus the cost of spay/neuter if applicable. Other animals adoption fees vary. If you rent we need a letter from a landlord saying you are allowed to adopt. Must be at least 18 years of age to adopt. All Spay/neuter fees must be paid with a check/money order or cash ONLY and made out to the Clarke county humane foundation. We cannot accept card payments for spay/neuters

This boy is such a love! He just wants to be with people all the time, and he is a purr factory! He is FIV+, but it really shouldn't affect him living a long healthy life. Due to the fact that Meteor was causing fights with other cats in his colony (which is why he was trapped and brought to us in the first place) we would recommend this boy be the only cat as FIV is transmitted through deep bite and scratch wounds. FIV cats can live with other cats with no problem or risk to the healthy ones as long as they aren't fighting, but due to the nature of Meteor's intake we would suggest he be the only cat, although, we do think he would LOVE a dog buddy! 😍😍

Pet of the Week: Meteor is a 1.5-year-old domestic shorthair that came to the shelter as an outdoor cat and has since tested FIV+. Due to his illness, he will need to be in a home with no other cats, but he loves to be the center of attention and carried around. Could you be the shooting star he wishes on to take him home? Meteor is up to date on all shots and microchipped. His adoption fee is $35.

If you can give Meteor a good life, please complete a pre-adoption application: www.clarkecounty.gov/government/animal-control-shelter

Visit Meteor and all other adoptable dogs, cats, and kittens at the Clarke Animal Shelter, located at 225 Ramsburg Lane in Berryville.

**Please avoid comments that do not pertain to returning these dogs to their owners, they are NOT AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION**

Clarke Animal Shelter responded at noon on 12/27/24 to assist ACO with catching two 10-12 week old shepherd puppies that were loose with no collars around the area of Old Charles Town Rd at Windy Hill. At this time we are unable to determine much about them as they are terrified and aggressive. We will post more information after we are able to handle them for intake exams. If you own these dogs or have information about them please contact us here at the shelter at 540-955-5104, if you are unable to reach a staff member please leave a voicemail and we will get back to you as soon as possible.

Yes, its true. Miss Betty White is back with us here at the shelter. She would like a quiet home where she can relax and work on her puzzles. Miss Betty does well with all kinds of animals and loves her family. She loves them so much that sometimes she gets a little nervous or protective of them when meeting guests. With a proper introduction, she will love everyone! We know the perfect home is out there for her, help us find it!😍😍
