PLEASE DO NOT SEND INQUIRY.... fill out an application to save time!
PLEASE READ SO YOU CAN BE FAMILIARIZED WITH OUR PROCESS:
**Adoption fee is $150.00 first kitten/cat and 50% for the second, (within 2 weeks) includes preventatives. Kitten series vaccines, rabies and spay/neuter and microchip.
Kittens over 6 months of age are $50 (no additional discounts)
**Sneak peek kittens not listed on Petfinder can be viewed on our FB Group CATS Resort. We try to post as much as possible on social media for your selection purposes.
*We only place a hold on a kittens (OVER 8 weeks of age) with a full adoption fee paid (non refundable if you cancel) otherwise, we pass up other potential adopters for a "on hold" kitten, only to find out they changed their minds and we missed a window of opportunity.
You can submit payment once your application is approved and the kitten has been deemed medically stable. DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL NOTIFIED VIA TEXT!
If the kitten you are interested in is NOT medically stabilized, we wait until it is. Let us know which kitten(s) you wish to be put in a “virtual line” (on the list) for notification via text (once approved!)
Once notified (via text) you will have 24 hours to make prepayment before the line moves and we offer to the next person.
**Payments can be made through our website, www.CastAsideToSurvive.org OR Paypal or Venmo as friends & family to avoid a service fee (icanmakethat2002@yahoo.com), Cashapp is $CastAsideToSurvive,
If you use the website or facebook page (use the donate button) . You would need to forward the receipt as we do not get reports of payments until the end of the month.
Payment claims the kitten(s) you have chosen!
Kittens MUST be three pounds to be neutered. They do NOT leave us until that surgery has been completed. We handle all of that. We do weekly weight checks and will advise when your kitten(s) is nearing the weight requirement.
Once they reach 3 pounds, they will be spayed/neutered (we pay) and given their rabies vaccine.
Once we know what date the surgery will be, we notify you via text and ask that you arrange a brief kitten vet appointment with YOUR vet of choice, per our adoption agreement. Most of our surgery days are Fridays.
We recuperate 2 days post-operatively before medically releasing them to their new FURLESS homes.
*When the adoption process is finalized in person, there is a binding contract that needs to be reviewed and signed.
Please make your vet appointment as soon as we are discussing the surgery date, as we do not do diagnostic testing. Your kitten(s) will need a fecal sample tested at that appointment. YOU collect that sample and bring to your vet appointment. We do routine immunizations, preventative care for internal and external parasites and treat prophylactically and symptomatically.
We do the vaccines and parasite treatments. If your kitten(s) goes home before the series is completed, you can return for those free of charge.
We will schedule the adoption finalization to pick up your kitten(s) after you advise us what the date that the vet visit has been scheduled for. We provide FULL health records at the time of adoption finalization.
Banister Veterinary Hospital, local to us, 845-331-1050 is very accommodating for this! click here to request an appointment!
.
*This is a slow process. The rescued kittens in our care are priority. Mothers and babies, plus field trapping, being on the road, fundraising for medical costs, handling social media, emails, calls and more....sorry, please be patient.
Applications are processed and responded to in the order in which they were received chronologically.
*We WILL move over to communicating via text (once all is approved) and you are added as a contact in my phone. I will not answer text messages NOT assigned to a contact.
We BEG you, don’t start multiple modes of communication. It just slows things down looking for the original content in order to be able to respond appropriately. We do not have staff to answer calls.
Thanks for understanding!
