My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

***The first step in the adoption process is to complete the application at www.emmetcountyanimalshelter.org***


When this little senior lady came to us along with Pedro from a hoarding situation we were told her name Cat.  That's pretty cute and we call her Cat the dog. She is looking for a human companion. Someone who is home quite a bit and likes to snuggle. As you can see in her photos, Cat is blind.  She is very affectionate and pretty calm overall but she can get spooked by other animals.  She has done well in her foster home and while she seems to have beef with one of the male resident dogs being in her business she is fine with the female resident dog and with her friend Pedro. She likes to bark at cats occasionally but not all the time. Her blindness will need some patience but she learns her space and maps pretty well. At first, she follows behind you, then she will lead when she gets comfortable. She likes men and women. She would love to be a pampered princess. She jumps up on couches and can get on the bed with a doggie step. She is a snuggler at night and prefers under the blankets. She loves stuffies and enjoys a good chew stick but generally Cat is very quiet and gentle. Cat just recently had a dental and she is spayed, up to date on vaccinations and microchipped. Her adoption fee is $200.00

Additional adoption info

All interested parties must fill out an adoption application and be approved prior to adoption. If a family has currently, or in the recent past had pets then a veterinary reference is required. If not then two personal references are required. Our adoption fees for dogs range from $150-$300. Our adoption fee for cats is free will donation. After an adoption has been approved an adoption contract must be signed.

More about this shelter

The ECAS is an all volunteer, no kill shelter. Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome pets in need due to neglect, abandonment, abuse or from simply not being wanted! We started in 2010 due to a need in our community. We are currently a foster based organization and we are currently building our new shelter facility. We work hand in hand with other rescue and shelters in the area to help out when and where we are needed.
