FIXIN' FERALS ADOPTION APPLICATION

This application is intended as a means to match the right cat or kitten with the right home. The more detail you provide, the better. All of our adoptable kittens are appropriately vaccinated as early as 8 weeks and spayed or neutered once they reach 2lbs. Our cats are vaccinated during their foster stay and spayed or neutered if they have not been already. Our adoption fee ranges from $100.00 to $150.00 which helps to offset the cost of veterinary and foster care while helping us continue to help more kittens and cats.
