Tuffy was dropped off in a carrier at the shelter several years ago after his owner left him with an note stating she had lost her job and could no longer care for him.  Tuffy was then adopted into an assisted living facility.  Unfortunately the caretaker at the facility can no longer care for Tuffy, therefore he has come back to CCARS.  Tuffy was a loved cat, has done nothing wrong.  He is a little shy when you first meet him and is docile.  He has beautiful green eyes.  Tuffy is looking for his forever home, for real.

Clay County Animal Rescue & Shelter is located at 375 Water Elm Lane, Flora, IL. Our phone number is 618-665-3005.  We are renovating our shelter so hours are by appointment only. 

The typical adoption fee for dogs is $150.  It includes vaccination, deworming , spay/neuter, heartworm testing on dogs of age and microchipping, which is now mandatory by state law.  Some dogs we discount to as little as $50 due to sponsorship.  Some dogs we ask a higher adoption fee, which helps us recoup expenses on heartworm treatment on other dogs.

All cats are spayed/neutered/vaccinated/flea treated/dewormed and microchipped prior to adoption.  Cat adoption fees range from $60-$100.  We spay/neuter/microchip/vaccinate and deworm all kittens and cats, prior to adoption.  Our shyer/less adoptable cats are classed as "barn cats" and are free with a completed/approved barn cat application, which can be found on our website.
