My story

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

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

Cheerio likes to be around people but prefers to initiate contact herself instead of people going to her. She likes to smell your hand and if she approves, she loves to be petted on her head, ears and neck. Its her absolute favorite thing and she will purr so loud when she is being pet. If she is around someone she knows, she likes to sit next to them. She likes stringy toys and to play with them, especially if a person plays with her. She is fine around other cats but has never been around dogs. She prefers when children keep their distance because she gets scared of them but once she gets to know them, she lets them pet her. She prefers older children to babies. She doesn't like to be touched on her tummy and will move your hand away with her paws if you try to touch her tummy. She gets lonely when left alone too long. She loves to sit in high places so her favorite spot to sit is on a high bar chair. She doesn't mind being combed as long as you dont comb her tummy hair. She absolutely loves to sit and lie down in cardboard boxes. She only likes dry food. She will never eat wet food despite being offered many times. She loves drinking water.

We are unable to do meet and greets without an appointment. But you can go online to see available cats as well as in-store.

2.

Submit Application

While the stores do stock paper applications, we recommend filling out our online form as this e-mails us right away.

3.

Interview

An adoption coordinator will reach out within 3 business days to you to discuss your application and answer any questions.

4.

Meet the Pet

Our adoption coordinater will schedule a meet & greet once the application is approved. We do not accept walk-ins except at events.

5.

Sign Adoption Contract

If, at the meet and greet, you decide the cat is a match, you will be able to sign paperwork then and there to adopt the animal.

Our adoption fees are $175 per animal. We accept cash and credit card. There is a $8.31 processing fee for credit cards ($183.31)

That's it! You will need to leave PetSmart with the cat in a carrier per their policies but you can take them home and get them acclimated!

Additional adoption info

When you've signed the paperwork, we will send you home with a coupon booklet that includes many PetSmart coupons including $5 a hard carrier if you need to purchase one as well as a free bag of food to go home with.
