Cat Adoption Process: If you are interested in adopting a cat, you will be asked to fill out an adoption application and visit the shelter to meet the cat. You may download an application and bring it with you the day you visit. You may also fill out an adoption application at the shelter if you prefer. An Adoption Counselor will review your application and help make sure the cat you are interested in is a good match for you and your family. Please be patient. We are making love-matches so it can take us a few days to review your application details. Please note: We may take up to three applications on a cat while we are getting them ready for adoption in order to select the home that we feel is the best match for that particular animal. Our adoption fee for cats (over 6 months of age) is $150. This fee includes a veterinary exam, vaccinations, and spay/neuter. Our adoption fee for kittens (under 6 months of age) is $200. This fee includes a veterinary exam, age appropriate vaccinations up to the date of adoption and spay/neuter.
