Adoption Process
👉 We offer live video calls so you can meet your kitten in real time.
👉 We place our kittens with families through a simple, fast, and transparent process.
How our Adoption Process Works-
First-Come Adoption (No Traditional Waitlist)
Kittens are adopted on a first-come basis once they become available. Submission of an application does not reserve a kitten nor place you in a traditional waitlist.
When kittens are evaluated and marked as Available, approved applicants are contacted in the order their confirmed interest is received for the available kittens.
Step-by-Step Adoption Overview
1. Apply for Adoption
Submit an application to be approved.
2. Availability Announcement
Live video calls are available so you can meet your kitten in real time.
3. First-Come Adoption Selection
A deposit secures your kitten and removes them from availability.
4. Reservation Deposit
A $500 non-refundable deposit secures your kitten.
This is applied toward the total placement price.
👉 Kittens are reserved on a first-come basis.
5. Final Payment & Pickup/Delivery
Final payment is due 3 days prior to pickup or scheduled delivery.
We will coordinate timing with you to ensure a smooth and comfortable transition for your kitten.
Communication & Timing
👉 Kittens are placed quickly. Prompt responses are recommended to secure availability.
Final Notes
-
We do not accept deposits to simply “hold a place in line.”
-
Adoption deposits are only accepted after a kitten is selected.
-
Adoption deposits are non-refundable but applied toward the final adoption price.
