Looking for eco-friendly, non-toxic pest control? If you have a shelter, you can save a cat and control your rodent population at the same time by adopting a Working Cat! Sometimes, cats cannot live as household companions, yet make excellent barn cats and thrive in that environment. These cats may be shy or fearful of people and prefer the company of other cats and animals. Generally speaking, cats placed through the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin Working Cat Program are independent cats who prefer to limit their interactions with humans. However, the degree to which they keep their distance varies from cat to cat and may change over time. Working cats often develop strong bonds with other cats, which is why the Humane Society of Southern Wisconsin recommends that two or more cats be placed together.
If you are interested in adopting Working Cats, please call the shelter at 608-752-5622 to speak with an adoption counselor or fill out a Working Cat application by joining our Facebook group HSSW Working Cats!
