Bastrop County Animal Control and Shelter

Mission Statement

Our Mission is to:
-Assist the public with animal issues in the county.
-Investigate animal bites and animal cruelty and neglect complaints.
-Enforce local county ordinances.
-Impounding and caring of stray/surrendered animals.
-Educating the public on responsible ownership of pets.


When animals are brought to the shelter with no owner identification, the animal is held for
2 days under a stray hold awaiting owner reclaim. When an animal is brought in with owner
identification the animal is under a stray hold for 10 days awaiting owner reclaim.
After the stray hold is up the animals are evaluated for adoption.

Adoption Prices:
Cats $45
Dogs $75

All adoptions include all initial intake vaccinations, Spay/Neuter
Rabies vaccination and Heart worm test.
