At Purrfect Pals our highest priority is taking in the cats and kittens who need us most… those who other shelters and rescue groups might not have the resources to help. This includes senior cats (though we prefer to call them “vintage”), cats with major medical needs, cats with chronic illnesses (including FIV and Feline Leukemia) and those with behavioral challenges. Our cat adoption and rehabilitation programs help us place homeless cats, including those with special needs, in loving homes. We believe that every cat is adoptable; some just need more time than others to find the right match. Our ultimate goal is to place them with adopters or long term foster families, but these cats have a loving home in our Arlington sanctuary for as long as they need us. The Purrfect Pals Sanctuary is currently home to 140+ of these special cats. We truly believe that every cat, with or without special needs, matters and is deserving of a forever home. After all, people aren’t perfect. How can we expect our cats to be?
Potential Adopters must complete our Pre-Adoption Questionnaire and an interview with an Adoption Counselor. Because each and every cat and adopter is unique, this process can take an hour or longer. We are committed to setting you both up for success and the interview process will determine whether your lifestyle and the cat’s personality are a good match. Adopters must be 18 years of age or older. To avoid delays, please bring your photo ID with you.
