Chaplin was just a wee hungry kitten licking salad dressing off the cold ground behind a local Wendy’s when he was spotted by a caring cat person. She began to leave food for him and worried each time she didn’t see him because it was so cold and our first big snowstorm was coming. So she called her neighbor, a SCBI volunteer, and together they caught the little bugger a few hours before the storm raged. Now that Chaplin’s indoors and safe with a steady diet, he filled out quickly. He’s approximately 4 months old and is still a bit scared by fast movements, but when he’s calm he loves pets and soft words. His ideal home is quiet with cat savvy folks and a friendly cat buddy or two. He takes great comfort around the cats and foster kittens in his foster home. You can meet Chaplin soon at Petsmart Collegeville or immediately at his Ambler foster home. His foster mom only adopts to true non-smokers and non-vapers.

Additional adoption info
During review of the application if you rent your home, we confirm with your landlord that you are allowed to have the cat per your lease.
We also consider if a particular cat is a good fit for your home. Certain cats will do better in homes without small children, or without other cats. Other cats may need to be adopted with a cat that they are bonded with. So we make sure that the cat and the home are a good match before completing an adoption.
Some of our fosters allow trial adoptions, where you would have 2-3 weeks to make sure that the cat being adopted was accepted by the other pets in your home. If you are interested in this, please ask your Adoption Representative.
All cats adopted from Stray Cat Blues have been screened for feline leukemia and FIV, inoculated, sterilized and wormed when they first come to us. Additional vet work is completed for those cats that require additional care. Healthy, adoptable cats and kittens are then housed through our network of foster homes until they are adopted.
You are also welcome to come visit cats at our PetSmart Collegeville and PetSmart North Wales/Montgomeryville locations (see times for adoption showings). If you see a cat there that you like, you can complete an adoption application there in person.
Questions - email us at: contact@straycatblues.org. We are happy to answer general questions, and also put you in touch with the foster families for questions about specific cats.
