Adoption and Foster Policies

• Adoptive and Foster Homes must keep all cats indoors
• Existing cats within the home must be tested negative for both Feline Leukemia (FeLeuk)
• and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV)
• Existing animals must be current on vaccinations
• Existing cats in the home must be spayed or neutered
• No declawing is permitted
• No cats or kittens may be given as gifts.
• No cat may be given to another person. If the adopter or foster parent is no longer able to keep the cat, the cat must be given back to Ms. Kitty's Cat Rescue, Inc.
• Adoption applications are good for six months from the date of approval. After that time, a new interview and vet reference check will be required.
• We discourage placement in households with 10 or more cats.
• We do not adopt to persons under 21 years of age.

Kitten Policies

• No kittens will be placed alone in homes. Kittens will be adopted out in pairs, with littermates and or the mother. When a littermate, the mother, or another cat is not available, the kitten will only be adopted into a home where there is another cat, unless the primary caregiver is home almost all the time.
• Kittens will only be placed in homes with dogs and small children after a thorough screening, which may include a home visit.
• Kittens will not be placed in homes with children under the age of 5.
