CBT zoo and rescue
Welcome to our website
We are the other animal animal rescue
CBT is an small animal rescue/shelter organization, which also provides programs with animals through a meet up close and/or touch experience. CBT takes in small animals that have been abandoned or released by their owners. These animals are used in our education programs and most are found new forever homes through our adoption program. Not all animals are adoptable, and those will remain with us the rest of their lives, hence the zoo in our name. Some of the unadoptable animals become our ambassador for our cause! CBT relies on donations, program fees and adoption dollars to feed, house and provide medical care for the animals.

OUR MISSION
EDUCATION leads to Respect, Kindness, and Adoption
Meetings for adoption are by appointment at the Dearborn, MO facility or at our adoption events, (first come first serve basis), and sometimes we have to work around our special events, personal things and work, so same day appointments are difficult.
Any inquiries, email, call, or text, after 6:30 pm or closed dates will be handled on our next available spare moment- sometimes up to two days.
Closed 2022 -
October 31st
November 23rd to 28th
December 22nd to 28th
December 31st to January 2nd
Sometimes we have to stop taking in animals due to a lack of space. As animals are adopted, we can make room for others, so sometimes there is a waiting period. Please understand that we have regulations to follow. You must be willing to drop off in Dearborn, MO- BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. As of May 1, 2022 - no appointments on Mondays. OR text us (816-377-5472) and let us know ahead of time and you can drop off at an adoption event.
Starting in December 26, 2022 - CBT will charge for surrender pickups! The fee will be paid for in advance (venmo, paypal or over the phone via card) then a time and date will be scheduled, (with 10 to 15 minute window).
If you drop off at the shelter on Dearborn (by appointment) or at a scheduled event, there will be no charge.
For safety and insurance reasons, we do not allow anyone on the property without a staff member in attendance.
THANK YOU FOR UNDERSTANDING.
