Whether your puppy has lost its way or an animal needs a home, the City of Bloomington Animal Care and Control is here to help. A division of the Department of Public Works, Animal Care and Control operates the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter and is the primary provider of animal-related services for Bloomington and Monroe County. Our principal activities include:

* maintaining a fostering program in which shelter animals reside in temporary homes.
* educating the community about animal care and behavior via guided tours of the shelter, free literature, and expert advice from staff.
* producing a weekly television program (Pets Without Partners), including education on animal care and behavior and featuring pets available for adoption.
* enforcing animal control ordinances.
* investigating cruelty and neglect cases.
* providing 24-hour emergency rescue for injured animals.

Please contact us with any animal-related questions or concerns and remember to visit the shelter if you want to add a new furry friend to your family!
