Adoption Fees

The adoption fee for a cat or kitten is $500.

​

This is not a purchase price. It is a cost share of rescue.

Cats in rescue require real veterinary care. The adoption fee helps cover medical expenses such as vaccines, spay or neuter when age appropriate, microchipping, medications, and treatment for illness or injury.

​

The truth is simple: adoption fees do not cover the full cost of rescue, especially for cats who need urgent or ongoing medical care. Donations are what make the hardest rescues possible.
