Michael is mild tempered, loves to cuddle, loves soft blankets, he tolerates dogs ( but they aren't his favorite) he doesn't particularly like to be brushed, or being in a pet carrier. He's independent, but loves attention, too. He likes to come to you, on his own terms lol. Unlike most cats, he doesn't mind having his paws touched. He likes to chase toys, that move along the floor, he's not too big on jumping for toys. He loves to be up high, on a cat tree or something similar. He also loves to give kitty kisses, when he gets to know you, he's a little shy at first.

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.
