Bast's Treasures
About Our Rescue Group
We are a no-kill feline rescue specializing in kittens, newborn to 6 weeks. Started in 1992, we saw a need when we discovered that the local humane societies routinely euthanize unweaned kittens. We foster them in an uncaged, home environment until they are old enough to place. Most adoptees are 8-14 weeks old, although we do have some young adults and the occasional older adult that also need homes. PLEASE NOTE: We adopt to INDOOR ONLY homes. If you need or want an indoor/outdoor or outdoor pet, may we suggest someone with less stringent requirements.
We gratefully accept any donation. We have no salaries/administrative fees. ALL donations go directly to provide food and medical care for the cats. Come Meet our Pets
Kittens/cats may be seen by appointment only. Please call or e-mail to schedule.
Our Adoption Process
Persons (must be over 18) interested in adopting are asked to fill out an application with 2 personal references. Approved applicants are then asked to sign a binding Contract of Adoption. Terms of contract include but are not limited to: retain sole ownership, provide safe, comfortable INDOOR ONLY environment and all necessary vet care, agree NOT to declaw, and agree to relinquish the cat back to Bast's Treasures in the event they are no longer able to care for the cat. There may be periodic home visits. The standard adoption fee is currently $50.00, which helps cover the costs of initial vaccinations, dewormings, vet fees.
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a cat or kitten versus getting cats for sale or kittens for sale from a cat breeder? When someone is breeding kittens, they are creating new cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of cat or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a cat for sale from a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a cat or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group. |
