Additional adoption info

An adoption application can be filled out at online, on our website: www.tampabaycatalliance.org

Our fee usually costs between $40 and $70 based on age of cat.

Once an application is completed and returned to us, our Board of Directors review it. If the application meets our criteria and is approved, we will contact the potential adopter. This process usually takes a few days so please be patient. It is encouraged that the potential adopter reviews our adoption contract, found either in our shelter or on our website, before filling out and application for a list of criteria we require be met when adopting one of our felines. our main criteria is cats are to be indoors only and no declawing.

After agreeing to the contract, we then set up a date and time with the adopter to deliver the cat to it's new home. We do NOT allow people to pick up cats from our shelter, or adoption events.

We deliver our cats so we can see where they will be living to make sure it is a safe environment and inform their new owner of any potential problems something in the home might cause. We only adopt cats to be strictly indoors, do not allow declawing, and do not adopt to out of state residents.

Thank you for considering adopting from us and understanding our strict adoption policy. We consider these cats our "children" and want only the best for them after they have already had it so hard before ending up with us.
