Thank you for choosing C.A.T.S., Bridge to Rescue.

We are glad that you have decided to adopt a cat from our shelter.

Each animal’s welfare is our foremost consideration.

The following information is requested so your adoption counselor can better assist you in selecting a lifetime companion.

The cats available for adoption came here from a variety of sources. We cannot guarantee the cats’ health or temperament. All animals are examined by a vet or vet tech during their foster care with us. Their health is routinely monitored while at the shelter; however, there is always a chance that they are incubating a disease without showing any clinical signs. We recommend keeping your new pet separate from any animals in your home until your veterinarian has examined your new pet.

Be prepared that a yearly vet exam can cost up to $100 a year for a cat and is your responsibility after the adoption takes place. All of our cats/kittens have been fully vetted, including spay/neuter/vaccines/flea treatment/dewormer at the time of adoption. Declawing adopted cats is highly discouraged due to possible related health and behavior issues. If you are interested in declawing, we recommend adopting a previously declawed cat.
