Lebanon Humane Society, Inc, doing business as “Claws and Paws Animal Adoption Center” is a Missouri Non-Profit Organization. Our purpose is to serve the Lebanon/Laclede County region as a limited admission animal shelter which will strive for a 100% adoption rate of shelter animals with no euthanizing for time or space. We will also work to promote humane care of companion animals and educate the
community concerning pet overpopulation. All adoptions include age appropriate vaccinations and dogs are microchipped. If an animal is not already altered the spay or neuter is included in the adoption price if you schedule an appointment to bring the animal back to the shelter for our vet to do. If you choose to take the animal to your own vet, we will give you a certificate and we will cover $32.00 for dogs and $22.00 for cats. Lebanon Vets honor our certificates, but the service may be more than the certificate will cover depending on size and for pain meds. If you rent your home, we must call and verify with the landlord that you can adopt from us. As with all animals adopted here, there is a contract that states if the adopter during anytime of the animal's life can no longer care for under any reason, must return the animal to us. Animals cannot be sold, traded or given away for any reason. We also offer a 14-day return policy, so if for any reason the animal doesn't work out you can return them to us and can do an exchange for another cat or dog, one time only. The contract also states per Missouri law the animal MUST be spayed or neutered within 30 days of the adoption date (depending on age). We have been known to go and take animals back that have not been taken care of or if there is a breach of contract. We are always willing to take strays or animals that the owners can no longer car for if we have the availability. We take these animals by appointment only and as space allows. If you have any questions, please call at 417-532-9671. We also offer low-cost spay and neuter appointments for people living in the Lebanon and Laclede County areas. As well as low-cost vaccinations and $20.00 Microchipping.
