My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

(Special Adoption Fee) Dara was born in July 2023, the kitten of a community cat. Dara likes to be the center of attention, so she will likely do best in a home where she is the only cat. She has been around her foster mom's dog for most of her life, and she does not mind him at all; however, she does not like dogs that are pushy or "in her face", and she will stand up for herself. So, if you have a dog, it would be best if the dog is mostly uninterested in her to keep peace. She is vocal and likes to express her opinion! She's a strong, independent girl, but she likes to crawl under the covers and cuddle. She loves canned food! She knows her name and knows what "Dara, no" means. She will thrive in a home that will respect her space when she's being independent but will recognize when she is being affectionate and give her the requested attention. Dara has a sponsor, which means she has a special adoption fee.

Are you interested in adopting Dara or another JCAPL pet you have seen? You'll need to start by completing an adoption application, available online at our website: www.jcapl.org. There is no obligation to adopt by completing an application, however, we do recommend submitting an application as soon as you find an animal you are interested in. We review applications in the order they are received.

Completed applications can be sent via email to adopt@jcapl.org , faxed to 919-300-5524 or delivered in person by visiting us at one of our adoption events on Saturdays at PetSmart in Garner (White Oak Shopping Center).

We will contact you as soon as possible once we receive your application.

Thanks for thinking adoption!

Additional adoption info

Dogs $250.00 (includes the animal spayed or neutered, current on vaccines that are age appropriate; flea & tick prevention and heartworm prevention, dewormed and microchip)(refundable $100 deposit required if the puppy is too young to be spayed or neutered - deposit returned after spay/neuter has been completed and verified with a veterinarian)

We require an Adoption Application to be completed, an interview with a potential adopter, and sometimes home visits are done and vet references checked when possible. If the potential adopter lives in a rental property, we will need verification from the property owner or management that pets are allowed, how many, and any restrictions (breed, size, etc.). An Adoption Agreement and Medical History form are signed. We require a deposit if the animal is pending a spay or neuter appointment, and monitor follow-up to keep the appointment.

Go meet their pets

CATS and KITTENS: Our adoptable cats & kittens are at the Luv-A-Pet Centers at PetSmart, White Oak in Garner and in PetSmart Goldsboro).

Cats can be seen during regular store hours by asking a manager or by appointment with JCAPL. On Saturdays between 10am and 2pm, JCAPL volunteers bring additional cats and kittens to the Luv-A-Pet Center at the Garner location.

We do rotate our cats and kittens regularly so if you see a cat or kitten online, but do not see them at Petsmart, they are most likely taking a break at their foster home. Please feel free to contact us if you have questions about the adoption status of a specific cat or kitten.

DOGS and PUPPIES can be seen at the PetSmart at White Oak Shopping Center from 11:00 am until 2:00 p.m. on Saturdays, or by appointment with individual foster homes.
