My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Benny is a super sweet young fellow who is estimated to be 11 months old as of February 18, 2024. Benny was born outdoors but started eating on a homeowner's back porch at an early age along with his Mom, Tiki (also available for adoption), and littermates. The homeowner eventually lured Benny into his house but also let him back out periodically over time. The person finally realized that adding yet another cat to the household was not a good idea so Benny came into Cat Shack foster care.

Benny is still on the timid side, just learning the ropes in his multi-cat foster home. He very much enjoys being petted by his foster mom when he is feeling brave, but at other times he stays out of easy reach in a spot where he feels safe. There is no doubt that time will work wonders as this gentle young cat feels more at ease.

Benny is in beautiful condition, negative for feline leukemia and FiV and has used the litter box perfectly right from the start. He gets along well with all the other cats and hopes to be adpted to a home in which he will have a feline buddy.

Adopting from The Cat Shack

The Cat Shack rescue is all volunteer and the adopted cats are delivered to your home. Because we deliver the cats to you, we must restrict the adoptions of our highly adoptable cats to a 1 hour drive from the Allentown PA area. In certain situations, 'special-needs' cats, ferals and older cats will be adopted to homes at a greater distance then a 1 hour drive from Allentown PA.

The first step in adoption is to...

Young KITTENS are always adopted in Pairs or to homes with other felines already in the home. Click here to read why kittens are happier with a buddy!

All cats are vaccinated, dewormed, tested and altered as part of the adoption contract. This basic care (and other vet work required to make our rescues healthy) is included in the $85 adoption donation!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We ask our adopters to fill out a brief application. We seek adopters that will provide a loving home for the life of the pet with proper vet care.

The Cat Shack adoption contract states that the adopter will keep the cat safe, provide vet care and will return the cat to the Cat Shack rescue if the owners find that they can no longer keep their pet.

The Cat Shack adoption fee is $75 and includes FeLV/FIV testing, vaccines, deworming, the spay or neuter plus any other medical issues needed. This often includes dentals and other expensive vet work.

Go meet their pets

We always have many cats and kittens listed on our website at www.thecatshack.com, plus we have adoption centers where you can meet some of our cats live in the following locations:
PetsMart in Whitehall PA, the Petvalu in East Greenville and and Petvalu in Quakertown.

More about this rescue

The Cat Shack is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization staffed by volunteers.

We keep all of our rescued cats until they get adopted and will treat all medical issues identified by our vets. All of our pets are fostered in the homes of volunteers and we utilize our adoption centers in the PetsMart in Whitehall PA, the Petvalu in East Greenville and and Petvalu in Quakertown to help us find homes for our rescued pets.

Our group also has a very active Trap/Neuter/Return (TNR) program where feral cats are altered and returned to their original location to live out their lives without reproducing.
