ADOPTION PROCESS

Meet the Kitty Cats

Spend some time in our Kitty Cat Lounge and get to know our adoptable kitties. This interactive experience will allow you to truly bond with the cats and find the purrfect feline companion for yourself or family.

Complete an Adoption Application

All our adoptions are completed in person.

If you are ready to take the next step, please ask a team member for an application. Once your application is completed, we will review the application with you, learn about you and which cat you are interested in adopting, and answer any questions.

Adoption Fee

The adoption fee for cats and kittens is $145. If you adopt two kitty cats at once, the adoption fee is $245. Application fees are due at the time your application is completed.

 

All cats and kittens have received a physical health check, tested for FIV/FELV, treated for parasites, microchipped, spayed/neutered, and up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations, including rabies.

Application Processing

Please allow 3-4 days for processing your application.

A team member from Whiskerville or Cat Smart Coalition will review the application and contact your vet reference(s) to ensure proper care for your current pets and contact your landlord if you are currently renting. If you are renting and a pet deposit is required, this must be paid to your landlord prior to adoption approval.

 

All verifications must be completed prior to final approval.

Once approved, we will call/email you to coordinate the time for pickup.
