I adopted both my cats from there. The wait was long but it was worth it. The ppl at BARCS truly care for all their animals. There was a fee associated with the adoption but it was for the spay/nurture for both cats. They were kittens when I adopted them and are cats now. I love my babies. BARCS is doing great things for the community. 💕

Hands down the place to go to rescue a pet. The facility is very clean and you can tell the staff cares a lot about the animals. I was very glad to see a large majority of the pets we looked at online had already been adopted. It seems the turn around for the animals is very quick. I highly recommend this facility but you can never go wrong with choosing to rescue. We were able to pick up our new fur child without any issues. The adoption fee and package we chose was only $75 total. They neutered him, gave him his recommended vaccines and chipped him. They gave us the medication he was currently using and provided instructions after he left. I will definitely get my next rescue from here.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Is there such thing as same day adoption or do you have to wait to bring your pet home?

Karen Cooper | Sep 9, 2018
Shirley Kimbell | Sep 9, 2018

If noone has put an application in for that animal and as long as they are spayed/neutered you can bring home same day. You will have to meet with an adoption counselor and take a 15min class. After all those terms ard met you can bring your new fur baby home.

Lenora Rhoades | Sep 8, 2021
Wen Han | Sep 8, 2021

That's odd. I think they are a little overwhelmed. Pet value was trying to donate a ton of stuff, left a bunch of messages and never heard back. When I stopped in there one day to drop things off I let somebody know and she reached out to them. My point is I think they're pretty overwhelmed. Don't give up. Puppies need good homes 💕(but I wouldn't wait for their response. Keep on them)

Do people get to reserve the small dogs? There are at max number of applications without a picture ever being posted.

Jennifer Hines | Sep 8, 2021

If a stray cat is spayed (has tattoo on tummy) but isn’t ear tipped, does that mean they have an owner? I’ve been caring for a stray cat, been getting her vaccines, microchipped, hygiene, vet appts etc. but no one ever reached out as her owner.

K Johnson | Sep 9, 2019
TANEEK WYATT | Sep 9, 2019

I don't work for them but as an animal lover, it sounds like the cat wandered to far from home or was abandoned . So as i found out , once a person feeds and take care of a stray animals and health needs - their your pet. I could be wrong but-- that is what I have been told by BARC. Your now a Pet Parent

if u have the the money to adopt the animal and do the application do u get the animal the same day?

Hello I want to know if old owner of a pet can come visit ?

Tia s | Sep 9, 2018
The Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter (BARCS) | Sep 9, 2018

Hi Tylia, while we cannot prevent former owners from coming to visit pets they have surrendered, we do discourage it. Animals, like humans, grieve the loss of significant figures in their lives and seeing a former owner can be very stressful and depressing for animals. Ultimately seeing a former owner can cause any behavioral progress they have made here at BARCS to regress. We know that surrendering an animal is a very emotional process, however, we do ask that you consider the well being of the animal as we want them to be as healthy and happy as possible during their stay here at our shelter.

is this a no kill shelter

Lorraine Matthews | Nov 12, 2021
The Baltimore Animal Rescue and Care Shelter (BARCS) | Nov 12, 2021

Hi Lorraine, BARCS is an open admission animal shelter taking in over 10,000 animals a year. The definition of “no kill,” according to the advocates who created it, is an organization that saves 90+% of the animals that enter their care. In 2020, BARCS ended the year with an overall save rate of 90% and met this standard. But it is important to understand that under the “no kill” definition, a difference of small percentages can equate to inaccurate labeling. For example, if XYZ Shelter saves 90% of their animal population, they are considered a “no kill” shelter, but BARCS would be labeled a “kill shelter” at 89%. Furthermore, when comparing shelters, intake numbers can make a huge difference in what the percent actually means. For example, a shelter that takes in 100 animals each year and saves 90% (90 animals) has different resources and needs than a shelter that takes in 11,000 animals a year and saves 90% (9,900).

Is y’all allowing people to do walk ins ?

Rayonna. Bk | Nov 12, 2021
Wayne Becker jr | Nov 12, 2021

Kim Brent | Sep 8, 2021
NIN SAR | Sep 8, 2021

If the cat is eating but not gaining needed weight, then something is probably wrong and will need attention. It might just need a higher protein diet. Or it may have a health issue. In either case, I'd get the cat checked out. If there's a financial issue with accomplishing that, I believe BARCs has a list of organizations that offer assistance/grants to pay for any needed care.

Hello all. My name is Sandy and I'm in Catonsville MD. I am looking for an all white kitten or cat available for free adoption to the family in there forever home. Any suggestions?

Sandra Barth | Sep 8, 2020
Kathy Ann Marks | Sep 8, 2020

BARCS has a website where you can look at the 🐈 up for adoption. Many of the little kittens are fostered, so you would see them on the website rather than at the Shelter. I would also suggest going into the shelter. You just may find the baby that catches your 💓 is not that all all white fluff ball you imagined https://barcs.org/adopt-cats/

I need to know how go by adopting a therapy dog or train a dog to be a therapy dog

Girl Phat | Sep 8, 2020
Paul D | Sep 8, 2020

If you adopt through barcs, let them know what you are looking for. In MD any animal can be used as a therapy animal. Meaning if my cat calms me down and helps me emotionally the cat can be a therapy animal. If you Google therapy animal form or app it should come up. There is not any real certification needed. Then when you get the Certificate you are able to bring that animal with you wherever you go. Now if you are looking to have an animal trained that's different. You can find certified animal trainers through barcs. Hope this helps!

Good morning, I do agree with, (susette barnett)... At the same time, Be a dog's best friend. Befriend the animals owner and get some flea & tick medicine and apply. Ask to help a little by cleaning out the wound and applying Neosporin. And get some heart worm medicine and give it to the animals once a month... It's not easy having animals, some just lack the know how, some lack the funds to treat them properly, but still love them so much. And some of us humans, are too quick to judge... Be good, Be safe, God bless...

Yes with barcs they usually dont answer their phone, however I dont really think they do major surgery like that, I could be wrong, so it's best when you have the time, go up there and ask yourself. Other wise there are other places who specialize in helping a sick pet for a cheaper price for those who cannot offard to go to a vet and pay full price.

It is the law that dogs found running at large have to be spayed or neutered before leaving the building. You have to talk to animal control, not BARCS, which shares a building but is a seperate organization.

They will call the number that is registered to the chip. But it's recommended to go check in person, anyway, because microchips are not foolproof and sometimes don't work, or migrate to an area not often scanned.

I say look over all the dogs there, then follow your heart!! Don't limit yourself or the dogs based on their color, size, breed, age, etc. Older dogs are usually potty trained. And you're right, they have a smaller chance of being adopted. Black dogs are more often overlooked, also. Bully-breeds are what fill the shelters to capacity are the breed most overlooked. They are the most misunderstood and misjudged breed of dog, by far. They are awesome dogs! I know, I have a Staffordshire Terrier! Please don't rule out rescuing a Bully-breed! You will never regret it if you adopt a pit-bull type dog, I promise!! Regardless what size, breed, color, age of for you adopt, the shelter offers free training classes for the dogs and their new guardians. Therefore, if there is an issue that come up, you will have a resource to help you and your new pet! So, like I said, get the dog that speaks to your heart, and all the rest will fall into place!!

Lisa Walls | Sep 9, 2018
L S | Sep 9, 2018

Yes please call animal control. After BARCS is closed, you can't bring animals to their intake but always contact animal control. You never know, maybe he has a microchip that will help identify his family, but if not, he will come right over to BARCS to be adopted. If he has a family looking for him he will also have a 3 day holding period at BARCS where adopters can see him and put in pending applications but can't take him home yet just in case his original owners come back. If nobody shows up to claim him, he can go home with a new loving family. Also if he clearly appears to be abused, animal control will not release him to previous owners. (But often abusive owners dont come to claim their lost dogs)

Liz Marriott | Sep 9, 2018

The best thing to do is check under adoptable dogs on their website. It's updated as dogs are adopted. They are busy and chronically understaffed at the front desk, so it's not easy to get ahold of a person if you try calling. You could also email them, but you'd have to get the right address off their website. In the future knowing the animal's ID listed on the site will be more useful than just the dog's name because they have so many come and go the names are often repeated. If you do see him online, write that number down and fill out an application ahead of time if possible before heading to the shelter. Adoptions are first come first serve and you must have an in person meet and greet with the dog before they will process the application, so try getting there as soon as they open.

Lily S | Sep 9, 2018

1st, thank you for choosing to spay your pet. You are improving the health of your cat and helping by not adding to the homeless pet problem. BARCS does not do spay/neuter surgery for outside animals - only for the animals at BARCS before they are sent home. This procedure is included with the adoption fee. However, there should be a list on the website or if you call, of local clinics that provide spay/neuter surgery at low cost.

BARCS is excited about the possibility of a move. Our programs and services have outgrown our current space, and we look forward to the potential for a larger and more efficiently designed facility. As a private, nonprofit organization, we value our partnership with Baltimore City and Baltimore City Animal Control. A new facility will allow us the opportunity to expand our lifesaving programs for both animals and people in our community. The details of the relocation are still in the early planning stages, and BARCS will share more information when we have finalized the plans.

disneyfirstclass | Sep 9, 2018

You can take him to your local vet for shots or barcs has a low cost vaccine clinic the first Saturday of each month. The clinic is held at the downtown dog resort. Once you take possession of an animal, they become yours. Getting vaccines under your name will be further proof that he is now yours. If the dog is microchipped, you need to contact the chip company to transfer the chip to your name. You will need the owners consent to do so.

Hi, Theresa! We frequently have puppies coming through our doors, however, it doesn't take long before they are adopted. We suggest adopters find a day that they can be at our shelter right when it opens (2:00 on weekdays and 11:00 on weekends).

When I went to Barcs and was in the same situation, the intake person had an attitude because I hadn't made an appointment. But yet I read articles about people who just left their animals outside with no information. So make an appointment.

They have programs that depend on your household income and pet weight.

I like to know when barc accept blankets, comforters and sheets for the animals.

Gwendolyn Bennett | Sep 9, 2018
krystle swauger | Sep 9, 2018

They absolutely do! As well as unopened food, treats, leashes and even animal clothes. If they can't use it they can sell it and use the money as donations for the animals.

What requirements are needed to adopt a pet? Is there a certain age limit?

Sanna May | Sep 9, 2018
Marc C. Bowman | Sep 9, 2018

At least 18 years old.
