2. If approved, we make arrangements to bring the cat(s) to your home to meet with your family.
3. At that time, we give you the medical records and you sign the contract and pay the adoption fee which is tax deductible. Our adoption fees are $125 for a kitten and $75 for an adult cat.
4. When you sign the contract, you are promising to vet the cat yearly as well as sick visits. You also promise to give the cat back to Feral Cat Rescue if in the future, if you are no longer able to care for your cat(s). We do not want to see any cats turned over to the shelter or sent outside to fend for themselves.

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.
