The phone number is (205) 591-6522, if you are looking for your animal. You will be able to pick up at 6227 5th Ave. N in Birmingham.

The fee schedule is as follows: If your animal is unaltered, there is a $50.00 fee; $30.00 impound fee; $20.00 rabies fee (if you do not have proof of rabies vaccine); and a $50.00 City fee.
