ADOPTION APPLICATION 2024

NY Cat Warriors is an all-volunteer, non-profit, cat rescue organization devoted to rescuing and placing stray, neglected, and abused cats in NYC. We are a tax exempt 501(c)(3) organization and funded primarily through public donations.

All of our rescued cats are cared for in pre-screened foster homes or shelters such as Bideawee and KittyKind, until they can be placed in loving permanent homes. Before they are adopted out, all of our cats receive basic vet care which includes physical exam, spaying/neutering, vaccinations, flea treatment, deworming, and microchipping.

NY Cat Warriors is a NY State Registered Rescue

Registration # 483

I affirm that the information I have provided is true, complete, accurate, and not misleading.

I understand that submitting this application or having a "meet & greet" with a cat from NY Cat Warriors does not guarantee adoption.

I also understand there will be an adoption fee associated with any cat I adopt from NY Cat Warriors and that it is a donation 100% of which will go towards providing NY Cat Warriors' cats with vet care, spay/neuter procedures, vaccinations, flea treatment, de-worming, and microchipping and registration prior to their adoption.
