After you decide which animal you wish to make a member of your family, you will be required to complete an adoption application form, which will be reviewed by a volunteer who will interview you. If all is in order, you will sign an adoption contract where you promise to meet certain criteria for care of the animal. You will also receive a copy of the medical form which contains information such as tests, vaccines, etc. that have already been done for the cat.

There is an $120.00 CASH donation required.

The $120.00 adoption donation covers veterinary care that we have already done up to the date of adoption, including the spay or neuter of the animal. Every kitten, cat, puppy or dog will altered before the animal is adopted. The minimum veterinary care for the $120.00 fee is a feline leukemia test, 2 distemper vaccine as appropriate, 2 dewormings, rabies, and the spay/neuter. You may need to continue the vaccine process with your veterinarian.

YES, living outside the county doesn't prevent you from adopting from us. We do like to know if you move, because we now have cats living world-wide that have been adopted from us.

We require that the animals be returned to us. We will work with you to find one that is a better match, if you desire. Also, if you can no longer keep a cat after X number of years, please call us. We will take the cat back and find it another home; however, we may need some time to find a foster home in our system for the cat.

No. Cats that are adopted from FMCA must live indoors. The exception to this is a cat that comes to the group as an indoor/outdoor cat, and we are sure it will not adapt to an indoors-only lifestyle. In that case, we try to place the cat in as safe a neighborhood as possible.

NO! If you must have a declawed cat, we will be glad to show you what we have available that has already been declawed by a previous owner. FMCA is greatly opposed to declawing. We will show you how to trim nails and give you information on training the cat to scratch in appropriate places.
