SURRENDER POLICY

Due to these trying economic times more and more people are losing their homes, re-locating to other areas for work and moving in with family.  Some pets will not be making the move with their owners.  If you need to find a home for your pet,
There are several criteria that have to be met before HAS will consider the surrender of a cat or dog the first and most important are: 
For dogs:  Current vaccinations - current negative heartworm test and completed spay/neuter.
For cats : Current vaccinations - current negative FIV/Lukemia test and completed spay/neuter.

If your pet is accepted for surrender, HAS would become ultimately responsible for your animal for the rest of its' natural life.  Even if the pet gets adopted, the adopter is contractually obligated to return it to HAS if they are no longer able to keep it or take care of it.  The animal will always have a home to return to at no charge and never see the door of a kill shelter. 

SURRENDER FEES

Other than donations and fundraisers, the only funds that Highland Animal Shelter Operates on and supports our animals with are Owner Surrender Fees.

The surrender fee is determined on a case - by - case basis
Some of the criteria are:  documentation of vet visits and what has been done to the animal
The age, size, tempermant, needs and breed of the animal
