What We’re Looking For

We are looking for loving, responsible homes where our cats will live safely indoors only. Whether you’re looking to adopt or foster, we take pride in matching you with a cat that fits your lifestyle, home, and comfort level.

What You’ll Need to Complete This Form:

  • Basic household information (including who lives with you and any pets)

  • Details about your home environment

  • Veterinary reference (if you have pets)

  • Two personal references

  • Your preferences in a cat (age, personality, needs)

  • Agreement to our policies and care standards

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can I apply if I rent?
Yes! We just ask that you check your lease or ask your landlord about pet policies before applying.

Q: Is there an adoption fee?
Yes. Our current minimum adoption donations are:

  • $400 for adult cats

  • $450 for kittens

These help us cover spay/neuter, vaccines, prepare for future intakes, and medical care.

Q: Do I need to have prior experience?
Not necessarily! We’re happy to guide new cat guardians. Just be honest about your comfort level, we have cats of all temperaments and needs.

Q: Is there a difference between the foster and adoption application?
This form serves both purposes. If you are only interested in fostering, please note that in the application. We do not require a financial commitment from fosters.
