Arnie's Story...
Neutered Male, DOB 11/02 Arnie is a biggin! Weighing in at about 18 lbs. He really has the personality of a giant marshmallow. He'd probably prefer to be the only cat in the household. He can be quite shy, but does chase his mouse toy a little bit and tries to catch the laser point. Arnie likes to sit next to you on the sofa and have his belly rubbed. He's not fond of dogs. Available for adoption! This cat is eligible for Second Hand Purrs Young at Heart program. Anyone 55 years or older adopting a cat 5 years or older gets $10 off your adoption fee! Something old can still be something new! Arnie is sponsored by - Martha M.

Our Adoption Process...
The first step in the adoption process is coming into the shelter to meet a cat. Once you have found the perfect match for you, you will fill out a one page adoption application. We will then do any necessary vet checks to make sure that if you have any existing pets that they are up to date on all vaccines and have been seen for regular vet care. Once you have been approved one of our volunteers will contact you to set up the adoption. The last step is one of our volunteers will bring the new member of your family to you and you will sign an adoption contract. We do not spay/neuter or give rabies to kittens under six months of age. If you adopt a kitten under six months you will be required to spay/neuter and give them their rabies at your expense. This will be in the adoption agreement. The adoption fees are $80 for one cat/kitten and $130 for two. All cats have been tested for feline leukemia and FIV, had their distemper booster, rabies if over six months, had fecal testing done and been de-wormed, they have been flea bathed, and have been spayed or neutered if over six months of age.

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Arnie, a Milwaukee Domestic Shorthair cat was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Milwaukee, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair cat from a breeder in Milwaukee.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Milwaukee already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Milwaukee breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Milwaukee paves the way for another one to be saved.
