My story

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

This chatty older girl has a lot to say and isn’t shy about letting you know when she wants attention—especially if she’s in the mood for her signature head-butts. She’s not a lap cat, but she loves being right next to you, supervising everything you do (and interrupting it when necessary). Cheek scratches send her into pure bliss, and she’ll do absolutely anything for a feather-string toy. Crunchy treats are her favorite reward.

She can get overwhelmed in busy environments or when meeting lots of new people, so she’s hoping for a calm home with just a few humans. No small kids or dogs, please—but she may get along well with another quiet, respectful cat. She’s sweet, expressive, and full of personality—ready to bond closely with the right gentle, low-key family. Come meet Penny today!

3.

After your application is approved one of our professional adoption counselors will chat with you to make sure there's a great fit.

Take the Pet Home

Once you’ve been approved, you can head home with your new cat!

Additional adoption info

If you are looking to adopt a cat, we encourage you to visit our shelter. There are no scheduled appointments at CCS – simply drop by during the shelter’s open hours.

When you visit the shelter seeking to adopt, one of our friendly adoption counselors can answer any questions and help you find your new best friend!

Once you have found a cat that suits you – which may take more than one visit – fill out an adoption application. You will then go through the adoption process to learn more about the specific cat you have chosen and to review the adoption contract. Adoption paperwork usually takes about 30-45 minutes to complete and review.

They have undergone a physical examination upon entry into the shelter, and Dewormer and FVRCP vaccinations. If they are over 4 months they will have received a rabies vaccination. If they are over 12 weeks, they will have been snap tested for FIV, FeLV and Heartworm. All adoptable cats and kittens have been spayed or neutered. All cats and kittens leave the shelter with a 14-day health care assistance plan, a collar and ID tag, and an implanted microchip used to help return lost pets to their homes.

$150 - Adoption fee for one kitten
$75 - Adult cats 6 months and older

More about this shelter

Cat Care Society is a private, non-profit cat shelter founded in 1981 that was established in order to improve the quality of life for cats in need in the Denver metro area. Our unique and free-roaming approach views all cats as worthy, regardless of their age or abilities.

We are non-discriminatory in our love for cats and take in cats that may not have a chance anywhere else. This includes cats that have tested positive for FIV or FeLV, or have been diagnosed with chronic health conditions such as diabetes or kidney disease. We also pride ourselves in finding these cats loving homes and educating cat owners on the care requirements for cats with special needs.

Our mission is to be a safe and enriching place for all cats on their journey to a loving home. We do this by providing compassionate care, shelter, adoption services and community engagement.
