Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…
Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

OCAP is 501(c)(3) non-profit an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff. We operate a shelter at 19504 State Hwy M38 in Ontonagon Michigan, built with funds from donations and a three-year county-wide millage of $168,000 that expired in 2011. The majority of shelter operating revenues used for utilities, maintenance, food, and veterinary services come from memberships, donations, and fundraisers and have not kept pace with expenses. To establish a source of stable funding, OCAP requested millage of 0.15 mils for four years starting in 2013. This is equal to 15 cents per thousand dollars of taxable property value ($4.50 per year on $30,000). We are grateful that the voters of Ontonagon County approved this millage to support the shelter.
Our shelter is open from 1:00 to 4:00 PM every Satur- day. In addition, our cat and dog coordinators are always happy to show the animals at a time convenient for you - just call to set up an appointment with no pressure to adopt. Meeting the animals is just the first step. To see the dogs, call Anne at 906-390- 0167, and to see the cats call Janet at 906-884-2429.
OCAP’s shelter is a No-Time-Limit Shelter. Because we manage the number of animals we can maintain a healthy environment, and because we do not euthanize healthy animals to make room for new ones, we may not be able to accept all animals we are asked to take. All animals accepted into the shelter are loved and cared for until the right home is found. We maintain a waiting list when we are at capacity.

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.
