Welcome to a place where furry dreams come true! 🌟 While everyone is practicing social distancing, there’s still a heartbeat of love at Macon County Animal Control and Care Center, where hope and wagging tails await! 😻 While masks are no longer required, the joy of potential adoption is still strong! 💖 Adoptions are open and waiting for enthusiastic families! Swing by for walk-ins from noon to 5 PM Monday through Friday, and noon to 4 PM on Saturday. Picture this: you walk in, and there’s a whole crew of adorable pets eager to meet you! 🐾✨ Make sure to come prepared with a leash or collar and a cat carrier to make those new family introductions a breeze! And guess what? When you leave with your new best friend, they’ll be sending you off with a sample bag of Hill's Science Diet pet food, thanks to a special shelter program. It’s like a mini welcome party! 🎉 However, for those extra special one-on-one time with an animal, having an approved application on file is essential. So, don’t wait—get that application in as soon as you can! Patience is key, as it may take 48-72 hours for the fantastic staff to reach out about your status, but good things come to those who wait! And remember, those gems stay on file for 60 days! 🗓️❤️ If you’re missing a beloved pet, please come visit us—we want to help! Don’t just rely on online descriptions; check in person at our facility during regular hours. Your furry friend could be waiting for you! 🐕 If you find a pet, call us so we can help reunite them with their paw-some owner! 🐾 Finally, if you have any animal control issues or concerns, don’t hesitate to reach out to us! We’re here to help. 💪 So mark your calendars! Adopt a pet today, and share your home with a loving companion. And remember, to start your heartwarming journey, YOU HAVE TO APPLY THROUGH THE BUDDY APP! 🐾💖
