Adoption

Ready to open your heart to a new feline friend? We're here to assist you in adopting a cat professionally and efficiently through our wonderful rescue partner, Homeless Tails!

Homeless Tails is a non-profit 501(c)(3) no-kill cat rescue organization, EIN 22-3776707, dedicated to saving and finding loving homes for cats who were abandoned, abused, neglected or simply were not lucky enough to find a forever home. Homeless Tails provides low cost spay/neuter, temporary shelter, adoptions and Trap-Neuter-Return services to all cats in need.

Adopting a cat is a wonderful long-term commitment that can bring joy and companionship for many years. Cats can live up to 20 years or more with proper care, so it's essential to be prepared for the responsibilities that come with cat ownership.

How the Process Works

Fill out the application

Please complete the adoption application in full. Once submitted, it will be sent directly to our rescue partner, Homeless Tails.
When you apply for a specific cat, that cat will be placed on hold while your application is reviewed. If other individuals are also interested in the same cat, Homeless Tails will consider all applications to determine the best possible match.
Please note that all adoption decisions are made solely by Homeless Tails, with the goal of finding the most suitable home for each cat.

Be Prepared to Zoom

Homeless Tails requires a Zoom interview to ensure that all of the cats find safe and loving homes. This allows Homeless Tails to provide a more personal touch to the adoption experience and allows you to ask any questions you may have. We understand that adopting a pet is a significant decision, and we want to ensure that you are fully prepared and committed to this responsibility.

Once you've been approved it's time to prepare your home

Create a Safe Space:
- Designate a quiet room with essentials like a litter box and food bowls.
- Allow the cat to explore gradually, starting with this space.
Ensure Safety and Cat-Proofing:
- Secure hazardous items and keep toxic substances out of reach.
- Check windows, balconies, and hide potential small spaces.
Provide Essential Supplies:
- Choose high-quality cat food and use non-tip food and water bowls.
- Offer comfortable bedding, scratching posts, and interactive toys for enrichment.

Bringing home your furry friend!

Congratulations on adopting your new furry friend! We are thrilled for you! As you prepare to head home, please keep in mind that we require that you transport your cat in a secure carrier to ensure their safety during the journey. You can purchase cat carriers, toys, and other cat-related items from the Catfé. You will also receive a copy of your cat's medical records and information about feline nutrition. We are here to support you every step of the way!

Questions?

Here are some important considerations for anyone thinking about adopting a cat:

Kittens are often best adopted in pairs. Applicants must be at least 25 years old and currently employed. If you are renting, please provide a copy of your signed lease that states that cats are permitted.

The adoption fee is $225 for one cat or $400 for two. This fee includes spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, and, depending on the cat, may also include a microchip. The adoption fee goes directly to our rescue partner, Homeless Tails, and helps them rescue more cats!
