If a behavioral problem arises, what steps will you take to work on it? What type of help would you seek if you could not solve the problem yourself?

The average cat has a lifespan of 12 to 15 years, some live to be over 20 years old. Are you willing to make a commitment to this cat for the rest of his/her life?

If for any reason you are unable to keep your animal, do you agree to notify RESCUER immediately, and without hesitation return him/her to RESCUER if requested and work on finding an appropriate home for your cat?

Are you aware and do you accept that the RESCUER requires that all cats, dogs and rabbits in the household be spayed/neutered before an adoption of a rescue animal can take place?

Please list any other questions you may have:

I have read the above information carefully and have filled out this application honestly. I understand that omission of information and/or failure to answer all questions and sign the application can result in this application being declined. Also, if an omission or untruth is discovered after an adoption takes place, I understand and accept that the Rescue has the right to annul the adoption and reclaim the animal.

I give the Rescue permission to fully investigate the information provided as well as contact veterinarians and related officials. If the application passes this review, I agree to a home and yard visit on a mutually agreed date by a Rescue representative before an adoption decision is made.

Furthermore, I understand and accept that the adoption decision depends upon many factors, including -- but not limited to -- the compatibility of the family and home to the individual animal and other applications received on the animal. I understand and accept that it is the Rescue’s prerogative to decide which home is most appropriate for the individual animal, and therefore I will not take issue with the decision. Unless otherwise indicated by the Rescue, I may be considered for another animal.
