Read this important information if you’ve found a stray: I’ve found a stray. What do I do?

ALL DOG AND CAT INTAKE IS BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Please call us at 641-472-6080 to make arrangements. We do not accept dogs and cats directly at the Shelter without prior arrangements being made.

Space permitting, Noah’s Ark takes in all adoptable, unclaimed dogs found as Fairfield city strays as well as lost, stray and abandoned dogs from Jefferson County and surrounding counties.

If the dog is found within city limits or within Jefferson or surrounding counties, call us at 641-472-6080.

There is no municipal provision for stray or abandoned cats in Fairfield. Our shelter accepts cats and kittens from within the city of Fairfield, Jefferson county, and surrounding counties as space permits.

We are a state licensed facility and are limited in the number of animals we can house at our Shelter. We maintain both a dog and cat intake wait list, and strive to accept as many animals as possible. We appreciate your patience and understanding in working with us to help as many animals as possible.
