In Shelby County, Kentucky, the care and regulation of pets, including dogs, cats, and ferrets, are governed by specific ordinances requiring that these animals over four months old be vaccinated against rabies and licensed accordingly. The Shelby County Animal Shelter facilitates this process through the Dog/Cat/Ferret License Application. This application serves as a critical tool in ensuring that pets are not only vaccinated but also registered within the county. For pet owners, the form gathers basic details such as the owner's name, address, phone numbers, and email, alongside specific information about each pet. This includes the pet's name, species (dog, cat, or ferret), sex, whether they are spayed or neutered, their color, breed, and crucially, their rabies vaccination expiration date and the vet or clinic where the vaccine was administered. Obtaining a license for a pet is straightforward and can be done either in person at the Shelby County Animal Shelter for a fee of $10.00 per animal or by mail, by sending the completed application along with a stamped self-addressed envelope and the fee. This system not only helps in keeping the pet population healthy and manageable but also assists in the reuniting of lost pets with their owners, making it an essential aspect of responsible pet ownership in Shelby County.
