Oakland County Animal Shelter and Pet Adoption Center operates as an open admission shelter for cats based on available capacity since January 2, 2015. That means we will not accept cats when we do not have room to house them. After consulting with veterinary staff and other experts in animal shelter operations, we will implement the industry’s best practices. By limiting the number of cats we house, we will be able to offer the very best care to our existing cat population. Therefore, we urge residents to call the shelter at (248) 391-4100 to determine availability for their animal before coming here. If we are at capacity and your cat is adoptable, we will place your name on a list and call you when we have room. We will also supply you with numbers to local rescue organizations that may be able to provide immediate help (click this link to access this list). Also, click this link to access a Animal Relinquish Information form will be required for each cat brought to the shelter.
