PLEASE NOTE: We have a very strict No-Declaw policy. None of our rescue cats shall be declawed after adoption.
*ADJUSTMENT PERIOD: Different cats have different behaviours and have different adjustment periods. Some cats may adjust right away, others may take a few weeks or even months. This can be especially true if other pets are involved. Adjustment behaviour may include vocalization (especially at night), door dashing, scratching furniture, not eating/overeating, hiding, personality conflicts with existing pets, etc.
There may be numerous applications for one kitty, the successful adopter may not be the first applicant. Filling out an application does not guarantee you are the best fit. We are not able to ‘keep your application on file, in case another kitty comes along’.
There are no 'meet and greet' opportunities (read their bio carefully to determine if the kitty will be a good fit) before an application has been received.
We do not provide a delivery service, nor discount the adoption fee for any reason. The adoption fee allows us to place a healthy, vetted kitty in your home, and help the next one who needs us.
