Adoption Process

If you are interested in adopting a cat, please complete our online adoption application. When we have received the application, the adoption process will then proceed with a phone interview with an Adoption Counselor who will explain the adoption process including relevant adoption fees. Once your application is approved, a volunteer from the Adoption Team will contact you and work diligently to schedule a tour of our facility. Our Adoption Team is made up of volunteers who are not at the shelter full time, but we try our best to schedule appointments at the potential adopters' convenience.
