What to Know Before you Adopt

We work hard to find the best matches between adopters and cats. If you're looking to adopt, please read the following to make sure you have everything in place before you meet with our adoption team.

Requirements

• Applicants must be 18 years or older with valid drivers license or state issued ID
• Must complete an application online or in-person
• We like for all people in the family to meet the cat you wish to adopt [please leave animal siblings at home!]
• We need to see landlord approval or receive permission for our adoption team to contact landlord to verify
• Pets at home must be up to date on vet care, including spayed or neutered*

*Exceptions may be made due to restrictions on vetting during COVID-19

Also Note

We operate on a first come, first served basis to help make sure cats don't miss a chance to find their forever homes.

We can only put cats on hold after applicants have completed adoption counseling. Due to COVID-19, adoption counseling is by phone only. Once counseling is completed, we will place cats on hold until you can come in for a meet-and-greet appointment. Read more below on the new process to maintain social distancing.

APPLY ONLINE

Due to COVID-19, adoptions are by appointment only.

Please read more about our procedures below. To limit interactions, only cats on site will be eligible for meet and greets. If you're interested in a cat who is in foster, you can still apply and we can let you know when they're moved in and ready!

1. Apply online via the button below.

2. We will call you to do adoption counseling by phone. It's okay if you aren't sure which cat you'd like to adopt yet!

3. Once your application is processed by phone, we'll schedule a time for you to come in and meet the cat you'd like to adopt. Meet and greets will take place in the airlock outside the cat lounge, so that we can easily sanitize between visitors. Please only bring members of the same household to your meet and greet appointment. Only two members will be allowed inside at a time, so you may have to rotate if you have a larger group. Masks will be required until you get into the airlock and upon leaving the airlock.
