The Kent County Animal Shelter (KCAS), a division of the Kent County Health Department, is the public safety
and law
enforcement agency responsible for animal control in Kent County. Effective animal control protects the
domestic
animal population from abuse and other health risks associated with humans, and protects the human
population from
disease and injury associated with animals.
The Animal Shelter is Kent County's animal control authority and is an excellent source of information about animal care, animal control regulations, and other animal-related community resources. KCAS staff can also answer your questions about exotic pets, rabies in non-domestic animals, or refer you to agencies that deal with livestock, wild animals, and breeding.
