Adoption Information |
As you consider adopting a cat, here's what we recommend
First, think about the cat of your dreams. Daydream lots and ponder a little on the
personality traits you are seeking and what characteristics would best fit your household.
To get you started...would you like a cat who...
- Loves to play and zoom around the house and makes you laugh?
- Or one who is a quiet cuddlebug who seeks out your lap?
- Or a confident party cat who loves having all the relatives over?
- Or an older, more sedate couch potato who's seen it all and seeks loving security?
- A best pal or polite company for your current cat, dog, bunny or bird?
- A special pal for the children?
Perhaps you seek a kitty with special needs or special personality who needs a special, accepting family
like yours?
What Veterinary Care is Provided by Cause for Paws to Cats Before
Adoption?
The veterinary care for every Cause for Paws cat or kitten prior to adoption includes:
- Physical examination by a veterinarian
- Feline leukemia/FIV test
- Worming
- Flea and tick preventative
- Up-to-date distemper vaccinations

What Happens After the Adoption?
Recognizing that the first couple of days and weeks can be the most difficult as the
new family adjusts, your cat's foster family will follow up with you to answer any
questions or concerns as everybody settles in.
