All of my animals and my family's animals come from places like that. While they all charge "adoption fees" which probably don't even scratch the surface as to what these folks have to invest in each animal, they don't make a profit.

We've actually done a little pro bono work for one adoption center. They are dead serious about enforcing the part of the adoption agreement requiring spaying/neutering. If you don't turn in proof within x days of adoption, they'll either steal the animal back (as authorized in the contract) or get a pro bono lawyer after you.

Great folks to deal with.
Which shelter is this, Pets'N'People? Because I love the fact that they are sticklers about the spay and neuter contract.

Also, since you are anti-puppy mill, there is a flashlight vigil at the State Capitol on the 30th for tougher legislation for puppy mills.
