Kalamazoo County Animal Control

Had to rehome a puppy he was so sweet just super high energy and too big for me . They told me he would more than likely be placed up front to be put up for adoption . He was the sweetest thing . The person came out to get him and literally dragged him into the hallway with zero care or interest as to him and why he was there no type of compassion or love being shown to him .

This place is absolutely ridiculous very poor judgment on animals. They should not have the authority to choose life or death in these animals lives. Also not being able to bring your pet home after being euthanized for a proper burial is insanity. Or letting you see your pet before it is euthanized to pay your respects. It’s all about the money and it’s unfair. Please take care of your animals.

Won't even answer their phone. There are so many stray animals in Kalamazoo county and the animal control won't do anything about it. Absolutely devastating.

Then he finally came out here three hours later took a photo of the dogs went back to him car called me would not let me speak and called me dumb and refused to give me his name and proceed to hang u

Our cat has been missing for 2 years. I was distraught and they were very kind when I came to look for the missing cat. Fast forward 2 years, a kind person found our cat and brought her here. They kept her for 4 days while we were out of the country and worked with us to get her home as soon as possible. Thank you for your service to the pets of Kalamazoo!
