Heartworm treatment is also included if necessary. All cats are tested for heartworms, feline AIDS and feline leukemia.

All adopted animals are spayed or neutered prior to going home.

All potential adopters will be required to fill out a short adoption application. Please be prepared either proof of home ownership/rental agreement and a veterinary reference or records. If you do not have your current pet’s records on hand, we can call your veterinary clinic to confirm vaccines and spay/neuter.
