My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

What a handsome cat! Meet Silas! He came to us back in October. Silas was a feral cat on arrival. The staff spent a lot of time socializing and winning his heart through Churu cat treats. He slowly started to trust to the point he can be picked up and carried! He can still be nervous but he's willing! Silas is around 2 years of age. He has beautiful, bunny-soft fur that is snow white! He's a big cat with a big heart. He just needs to find a human that will take a chance on him, let him adjust to being in a home and he will reward that human with years of entertainment and love. Silas loves to lay in a soft blanket and watch things going on outside. He would probably love to watch birds in a feeder and take cat naps. Can you give him a chance?

Adoption Policy

Anyone wishing to adopt an animal must fill out an application and go through a screening process.
Applications are available either at the shelter or on-line.
Every effort is made to match the family and animal who are right for each other.
Same-day adoptions are allowed on already altered dogs and cats. Dog owners should bring their dogs to meet the adoptable dogs. You should have veterinary references available for your current pets. You should also have landlord information available, a leash/collar for dogs and a cat carrier for cats. If you pick an animal that has not yet been altered, you will have to wait for the surgery to be performed before taking it home.
CCHS has the right to deny any application for any reason.
