About Us

The Bastrop Animal Control organization became a reality in 1998. We've grown since then and continue to do so as Bastrop County grows. Currently, we have 3 separate buildings containing a total of 90 large indoor/outdoor kennels and 8 play yards. We have 30 indoor cat kennels. We also have a 3 room cattery, that enables cats to live together in colony type environments until they find their forever home. If you have ever worked with or adopted a shelter pet, you know just how much they crave the attention and love we and our volunteers can provide.

We are looking forward to future projects including our new Wellness Clinic.

The mission of the Friends of Bastrop County Animal Shelter is to increase pet adoptions, promote spay/neuter, and provide funding to the Shelter to support the humane care and treatment of animals while in its care.
