My story

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

Meet Garfield & Baby – Your Future Feline Family!

Garfield is an adult cat, estimated to be about 7 years old. His personality is quite laid-back, affectionate, and a bit of a food connoisseur. Garfield is a lovable guy who thrives in a calm and cozy environment. Though he has Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), he’s in good health and doesn’t let it slow him down. Garfield loves lounging by a sunny window, getting gentle head scratches, and purring contentedly in your lap. By the way, his motor for purring is adorably loud!

Baby is Garfield`s BFF, also an adult who is estimated to be 4 years old. He is the more playful and curious of the two, ready for a little adventure or a fun toy to chase. He’s the perfect companion to Garfield’s calm nature, offering a perfect balance of love and affection. Baby is incredibly loyal and loves to snuggle with his best buddy, Garfield, at the end (and beginning!) of the day.

Garfield and Baby are a bonded pair who do everything together – from napping side by side to sharing their favorite treats. Their connection is unbreakable, and they’re looking for a forever home where they can continue their loving companionship. They both enjoy a calm environment and would thrive in a quiet household where they can cuddle and bond even more.

FIV Consideration -
Garfield has Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), a condition that affects a cat’s immune system. While FIV is not contagious to humans or other animals outside of feline contact, it’s important to know that Garfield should be kept indoors and with other cats who are either FIV-positive or vaccinated. Garfield is healthy, happy, and ready to live out his life with Baby by his side in a home where they’ll be cared for and loved.
If you`re ready to open your heart and home to two wonderful cats who share a unique bond - they will bring love, joy, and companionship, Garfield and Baby are waiting to meet you!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The process starts by browsing the pets on our website or by visiting the shelter. If you’re looking for a particular type of animal and can’t find it online or after visiting our shelter, please try a rescue group. The shelter has a list of rescue groups for most dog breeds, and you can also find these by doing a quick search online.

Upon entering our shelter, please take time to notice all our animals. All of the animals deserve loving homes, and our goal is to match up the right pet with the right family. Please visit with staff about the behavior and personality of the animal. They have been taking care of the animal since arrival and generally know a lot about them. After a decision has been made, please return to the front desk and give the adoption counselor a tag number, name, and/or description of the animal you are interested in adopting.

Adoption Requirements
To adopt an animal from the Cedar Valley Humane Society, you must be at least 18 years old, provide a current photo ID, and have a verifiable address. If you rent, bring a copy of your lease agreement and/or your property manager’s telephone number so that we can verify the type of pet you are adopting is allowed.

More about this shelter

A brief history
Founded in 1901, the Cedar Valley Humane Society helps place thousands of animals into new adoptive homes and returns hundreds of lost pets to their owners every year. We are not affiliated with any other agency or organization, and rely solely on private donations for everything we do.

Our Mission
The Cedar Valley Humane Society is dedicated to building healthy relationships between people and animals, and eliminating cruelty, abuse and overpopulation of animals through education, adoption services and inspiring compassion for all living things.

Animals we serve
We take in lost, abandoned, and owner-surrendered dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils, ferrets, and mice. At this time, we are not able to care for horses, reptiles, barnyard animals or other wild creatures.

Areas we serve
We place animals in new homes throughout the Eastern Iowa area. We provide animal control services to unincorporated Linn County and its municipalities, with the exception of Cedar Rapids, Marion, and Center Point, which have other animal control services providers. We also provide animal control services to unincorporated Benton County (dogs only), North Liberty, Swisher, Tiffin, Shueyville, Oxford, Walford, Solon, Atkins, Shellsburg, and Urbana.

Admission Policy
The Cedar Valley Humane Society is an open admission animal shelter. As such, we accept all animals regardless of health or temperament, and we will never turn away an animal in need.
