What is a special need adoption?
 
A special need adoption animal could be an animal can come from: owners that are divorcing and their no longer want their pet; owners that have died and have no family to take the animal; animals that are over the age of ten and need to find a new home; injuried animals that have brought to the shelter; and animals with special medical needs.

Why would I be interested in a special need adoption?
 
 

No one knows the reason why bad things happen to good people or to good animals. These animals are worthy of all of the love and respect that we would give to any individual with a life change. It is the way that the community, animal control officers and animal owners handle the situation that will be the end result of a loving pet.

If you are in need of a therapy animal, you might consider fostering an animal from our Animal Shelter. It is a win-win situation for you and the pet you foster. If in the event of your death, your pet would be returned to the shelter to be fostered again or adopted. You would not have to worry your pet not having a place to go or anyone to love and care for them. If you are interested in being a foster parent or need a therapy animal, call us at (406) 262-2279 or email: kittykeepers@kittykeepers.org for details.
