You must be at least 21 years of age or have the written consent of a parent or legal guardian in order to adopt a pet. Please fill out this questionnaire completely and accurately. It's purpose is to help us to make the best placement possible. The adoption process may take an hour or more, as you will be talking with our adoption counselors, meeting selected cats, reviewing the responsibilities of pet ownership and the terms of the adoption agreement. This is time well-invested because a happy, healthy cat may live 15-20 years, therefore, we ask for your patience and cooperation.

Alley Cat Rescue and its agents reserve the right to refuse any adoption based upon the best interest of the animals we serve.
