Montgomery County Animal Care and Control

As most folks are aware our Shelter is completely full of adoptable cats, kittens, dogs and puppies. This is a very critical as well as time sensitive situation and we want to start showcasing as many available, adoptable pets from the shelter as possible so they can find their forever families. All pets are fully vetted, some are already neutered and spayed which means they can go home the same day. The others will be spayed and neutered before heading to their new homes. Please take a moment to go to MCACC’s Petfinder page to check out all adoptables.
