Additional adoption info

Please carefully read the following information before applying to adopt:

REQUIREMENTS:
Must be 21+ to apply.

Must live within a 4-hour driving distance of Los Angeles, California

All kitties do best when they have a friend! We typically adopt our young kittens out in pairs. We will only adopt single cats/kittens to homes that already have at least one cat or dog (unless otherwise specified).

PROCESS:​
Once we receive your application, we will conduct a home check over Facetime or Zoom. We ask that every member of your household is present.

To ensure the safety of our fosters, we do not allow meet and greets prior to adoption.

Instead of a meet and greet, we offer a 1-week trial period where you can see if the kitty is a purrfect fit for your home!

Please note that due to the high volume of applications, we will not respond to all applicants.


ADOPTION FEE:
Solo Kitty: $150
Kitty Duo: $200 total ($100 each)

Our adoption fee does not cover the average cost of rescuing an animal. Therefore, donations above and beyond the adoption fee are greatly appreciated!

ALL OF OUR KITTIES ARE:

Administered Flea Medication
Up to Date on Vaccines
Tested for FeLV/FIV
