Fried's Cat Shelter's adoption process

Additional adoption info

You come in and find the cat/kitten that adopts you. In most cases you can take them home the same day. Our adoption fees range from waived to $105.00 depending on the age of the cat/kitten, what was already done in services with the animal prior to coming in and which services we have completed (ie: spay/neuter, vaccinations etc)

About Fried's Cat Shelter

Fried's Cat Shelter is a cageless, not-for-profit, no-kill cat shelter. We take care of homeless and unwanted cats and try to find them new homes. Hans and Lucille Fried founded the shelter in 1977. They couldn't stand seeing all the needless killing that was going on. They were adamant about spaying and neutering being the answer to the over population of animals. Hans was known for saying "To save a life is more in conformity with God's Law than to kill."

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

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 dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
