Special Adoption Rates for Older Dogs and Cats Animal Care and Control is currently offering potential pet owners who are 55 years or older a no-cost adoption for senior dogs six years old or older and senior cats three years old or older.  Everyone younger than 55 may adopt senior pets for one-half the regular adoption rate.

The Animal Care and Control Division ensures that animals are properly treated and controlled.  For many residents, its most important function is to serve as a source for healthy, adoptable pets. The division implements and enforces laws, regulations, codes and procedures concerning the treatment of domesticated animals. It also enforces laws dealing with control of wild animals.
