The Ketchum ASPCA is a completely independent non-profit organization and does not receive funding from the state, this or other surrounding counties or any national organization(s).
While we do not receive any money from various contracts, we rely and exist solely on adoption fees, revenue from Critter Cravings, Inc. and donations for our support and continued services to this and the involved surrounding communities.
Below is a comparison of the adoption fees we charge and what you might pay if someone "gave" you a "free" pet to a good home.
