Maria Meows Adoption Application

Adoption Application
We are very excited to help you in finding your next family member! Please fill out this application to get started. The next step in the process will be a home visit or video call, during which we will be assessing if the environment is safe to receive a cat. Some things we are looking for:
- Windows in every room are secured to prevent the cats escaping.
- Home is ready to receive the kitty: litter box, food & water bowl areas, cat food available, etc.
- Are there other pets that could potentially cause harm to the kitty? If other pets are present, they must all be fully vetted (Spayed/Neutered and Vaccinations up-to-date)
Adoption fee: $150 for adult, $170 for kitten, $30 off two kittens adopted together. Your adoption fee covers the following: Distemper vaccine(s) & Rabies, Deworming, Flea treatments, Neuter/Spay, & FIV/FeLV testing.
