Meet Our Cats

Meet our available cats and explore their profiles to learn about their personalities, care needs, and ideal homes.

Before You Apply

Adopting a cat is a lifelong commitment. We're looking for loving homes prepared to provide the care each cat needs.

  • Indoor homes only.

    Our cats are adopted as indoor companions.

  • Daily care and attention.

    Be ready to provide appropriate food, fresh water, enrichment, and companionship.

  • Grooming and breed-specific care.

    Persians and Exotics may need regular brushing, eye cleaning, and professional grooming. Experience is helpful, but we welcome adopters willing to learn.

  • Ongoing veterinary care.

    Be prepared for routine checkups, unexpected medical expenses, and any disclosed ongoing care needs.

  • Pet insurance.

    We ask adopters to obtain pet insurance to help cover unexpected veterinary expenses. Review coverage, waiting periods, and exclusions carefully, especially for pre-existing conditions.

  • No declawing or tendonectomies.

  • A lifelong home.

    Cats can live 15–20 years or longer. Consider how a cat will fit into your future plans.

  • Stay in touch if something goes wrong.

    Notify us promptly if your cat becomes lost. If you can no longer care for your cat, contact 7Paws so we can help arrange their return rather than rehoming them yourself.

Adoption Fees and Medical Care

Adoption fees start at $800 and vary by cat. They help offset a portion of the veterinary care, foster care, and transportation involved in preparing our rescued cats for adoption.

Before adoption, our cats are spayed or neutered, up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and have tested negative for FIV and FeLV unless otherwise noted. We share available medical records and disclose any known medical conditions or ongoing care needs.

Our Adoption Process

We want every adoption to be a good match for both the cat and the adopter. Here's what to expect.

  1. 01

    Find Your Match

    Browse our available cats and read their profiles. Consider each cat's personality and care needs alongside your home, lifestyle, and current pets.

  2. 02

    Submit an Application

    Complete our online adoption application and tell us about yourself, your household, and the home you can offer.

  3. 03

    Meet the Cat

    If your application looks like a potential match, we'll contact you to arrange a meet-and-greet. All family members living in the household should meet the cat before the adoption is finalized.

  4. 04

    Confirm the Best Home

    We may receive multiple applications for the same cat. We select the home that best suits each cat's personality, needs, and living situation.

    Adoptions are not first come, first served.

  5. 05

    Finalize the Adoption

    If it's a match, we'll complete the adoption agreement, collect the adoption fee, and provide available medical records and care information.

  6. 06

    Welcome Your Cat Home

    Give your new family member time and a quiet space to settle in. We're here to answer questions and offer guidance during the transition.

Ready to Apply?

If you've found a cat who could be a good fit for your family and are ready for the commitment, we'd love to hear from you.

Apply to Adopt

Submitting an application does not guarantee adoption. If your home looks like a potential match, we'll contact you about next steps.
