What’s Included

  • Spay or Neuter
  • Vaccinations (kitten series or adult booster)
  • FeLV & FIV Testing
  • De-worming
  • Flea Treatment
  • Health Exam by a Veterinarian

These services would ordinarily cost over $350. Additional donations above the required amount are always welcome, as many cats require extra medical care.

Good to Know

  • Indoor Only All adopted cats must be kept indoors for their safety and wellbeing.
  • No Declawing We require adopters to agree never to declaw their cat.
  • Not as Gifts We do not adopt pets out as gifts for others.
  • Home Visit A home delivery or visit may be required as part of the adoption process.

Not every applicant is approved. Our primary consideration is always the welfare of the pet. We appreciate your understanding.

10 Reasons to Adopt an Adult Cat

1

Older cats are calmer and more relaxed companions.

2

Their personalities are fully developed, making a good match easier.

3

No question about how big they’ll get — what you see is what you get.

4

Less likely to get into mischief or be destructive.

5

They form stronger, deeper bonds with their people.

6

They don’t mind being left alone while you’re away.

7

Cats live 15–20 years, so an 8-year-old has many years of love left.

8

They need less attention than kittens but can still be very playful.

9

These wonderful, loving kitties truly deserve a home.

10

Kittens are only kittens for a moment — adult cats are forever!
