So You’re Ready to be a Pet Parent!
If you have read Cat Care 101 and are comfortable with the responsibilities and costs associated with pet parenting, please read the following information and fill out the Q&A below so we can get to know you a little better. We love talking with our adopters and applications are reviewed in person! Please note that conversations are conducted in English, however you are welcome to bring a translator with you to facilitate a conversation about adoption.
ADOPTION FEES
There is a fee for cats and kittens who are adopted from Good Home. All of our felines are spayed or neutered, vaccinated (FVRCP and rabies), microchipped and have tested negative for FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency virus) and FeLV (Feline Leukemia Virus), unless otherwise noted. This fee allows Good Home to provide high quality veterinary care, including surgery or emergency care, when needed. The fee also covers basic medical costs we incur in order to properly prepare our cats and kittens for their forever homes and to assist other street cats in need.
$300 Kittens up to 6 months (bonded pair $550)
$275 Kittens 7–12 months (bonded pair $500)
$250 Adults 13 months–4 years (bonded pair $450)
$175 Adults 5 years–8 years
$175 Special needs cats whose condition is managed and doesn’t affect lifespan (ex. enucleated eye, a cat who has been declawed, Spirit cat, Cerebellar Hypoplasia):
$125 Senior Adults 9 years–14 years
$100 Special needs cats whose condition requires ongoing care (ex. FIV+, amputee, diseases such as diabetes, cancer, heart disease, kidney disease, thyroid disease), severe allergies, medical management for a temperament issue (Fluoxetine):
$75 Senior Adults 15 years+ and fospice/terminally ill/FeLV+
ADOPTION PREPARATION
Please read Cat Care 101 to ensure you’re ready to adopt.
Get to know our currently available felines.
If you’re not sure which cat to adopt, please consider visiting our Cat Lounge before submitting a Q&A. While we can’t guarantee a match, but we do think you’ll have a nice time visiting our wonderful, rescued cats and kittens! Plus, it’s a great place to start looking.
If you are submitting a Q&A for a specific cat that currently resides in the Lounge, please plan on visiting our Cat Lounge to meet them.
If you are submitting a Q&A for a specific cat that currently resides in foster care, please submit the Q&A below so we can set up time for a conversation. Once we’ve spoken you’ll be connected with the foster to set up an in-home meeting.
PLEASE NOTE
Most adoptions take 24-48 hours to process. Our main goal is always to place cats and kittens responsibly and in homes where they will be a great fit. We do not do same day adoptions.
We are not able to hold an adopted cat or kitten, so adopters should be prepared to bring their new feline home within 48 hours of signing the contract.
Prospective adopters may fill out an application, but if a specific cat is not applied for then it could take longer for us to get back to you. If you’re not sure which feline is right for you, please visit our Cat Lounge to meet adoptable cats and kittens. While we can’t guarantee a match, but it’s a great place to start looking.
Applications are reviewed twice a week. Please allow us time to reply.
