Once an animal is brought to the KC Campus for Animal Care as a stray, they will serve a mandatory five day stray hold.
After this five day holding period, any stray animal can be put up for adoption, transferred to another shelter, sent to rescue, put into a foster home, and in rare cases, euthanized (only if serious medical issues exist or there are issues of aggression).
Through our Reclaim Fee Forgiveness Program, owners that reclaim their pet within the first three days of impoundment at KC Pet Project will not be charged intake fees.
We continue to experience high levels of strays and lost pets entering our shelter every day. In order to support pets being reunited with their families, we are honoring our Reclaim Fee Forgiveness Program for all pets reclaimed within the first three-days (3) of impoundment through the end of 2022.
