The Shelter practices and appointment based adoption process. After your online adoption application is approved, Shelter staff will schedule an appointment to visit the Shelter and choose the right cat for your living situation.

Come Prepared

Be sure to review our page Choose The Right Cat For You and make some notes about your needs, living situation and lifestyle, and bring them with you to the shelter so our staff can help you find the perfect cat for your situation!

Our Cat Rooms

Community Cat Rooms: The Shelter has several Community Cat Rooms where you will find cats that roam around at their leisure in cat trees, cat dorms and walkways around the walls. These are cats who are more socialized and tend to interact well with other cats.

Independent Cat Room: In the Independent Cat Room you will find cats who are frightened, very shy or just prefer staying in their own company and away from other cats. Don’t overlook these felines. They may need to find a home without other pets or small children, or require a little extra love and attention.

Interacting With Our Cats

As you can imagine, we have visitors that just want to pet or play with the kitties. We know that their intentions are good, but cats are creatures of routine. Like many of us, they are not fans of disruption or change. Relinquishment to a shelter puts their world in a tailspin and stress results. Over stimulation from complete strangers can create even more stress and trauma. We are very attentive to keeping stress to a minimum for our cats so they can adjust to their new environment. For this reason, we limit interactions with the cats to staff, trained volunteers and APPROVED adopters.

Please, for your safety and the well-being of our cats, do NOT enter a Community Cat Room unless you are accompanied by staff or a volunteer. And, no fingers in cages, please!
