The Powell County Petfinder Site is managed by Friends of Powell County's Pets, Inc. (FOPCP, INC), a small group of pet-lovers dedicated to saving the lives of companion animals. We joined together to improve the well-being of all animals in Powell County, focusing our effort on decreasing the The Pound's population.
FOPCP, INC members collaborate with Powell County's Animal Control Officer to increase the visibility of adoptable pets living at The Pound. We work tirelessly to place as many of these pets as possible in reputable rescues or responsible forever homes.
Adoption fees for animals currently in the pound vary. Fostered animals fees include spay/neuter and vaccinations. Adopted pets must be spayed or neutered.
FOPCP, Inc. assumes ownership of all pets listed as being "In foster care". Once in foster care, adoption fees for dogs are $125. The adoption fee for kittens and cats are $60 unless additional tests are requested. For dogs, fees cover the cost of spay/neuter surgeries, vaccinations, heartworm testing, and any other costs accumulated to maintain the pet's health while in foster care.
If you are interested in adopting any of the homeless pets listed on this site, please e-mail the foster parent listed or email us at fopcpky@gmail.com
We take a firm stance in support of spaying and neutering pets to reduce pet overpopulation in communities and animal shelters. FOPCP, INC sponsors regular low-cost spay and neuter clinics in the Powell County area. We are currently accepting registration calls for our next clinic. For more information, call us at 606/481-4504.

We are always looking for responsible foster homes to help us start these wonderful animals on their path to a forever home.
Our need for loving foster homes is ongoing. Fostering is a rewarding way to become part of a rescued dog or cat's journey to a forever home. Fostering can last from just a few days to several months. The more foster homes we have the more dogs and cats we can save. Click here for a list of pets at this shelter
