ADOPTION POLICIES
-
Adoptions can be made via appointment! Please contact us at petsfriendsforlife@hotmail.com, call us at 519-631-5757, or message us on Facebook to arrange a private appointment for adoptions.
-
Adoptions are done in person at the Pets/Friends For Life shelter. Adoptions may be processed the same day, and you can go home with your new cat! Cats and kittens are adopted on a first-come, first-served basis for approved adopters.
-
Pets/Friends for Life policy is that all adopted cats go to homes where they will be indoor cats only. Many of our cats have come to us from a life on the streets after they have been abandoned or lost from a previous home. We wish to ensure that these cats do not have to suffer the dangers of the outdoors again, including cars, wild animals, and dangerous substances. If you are considering adopting a cat from us, please consider your kitty's long-term safety and respect our "indoors only" policy.
-
Our adoption fee, of $300 for adult cats and kittens, and $100 for senior cats, includes first vaccinations.
-
We work with several veterinary clinics to spay and neuter our cats. Adult cats will have been spayed or neutered upon adoption. If you wish to adopt a younger cat or kitten, they must be spayed or neutered later. You may choose to see a veterinarian of your choice for this and provide a paid certificate or invoice in order for our organization to refund a portion of the procedure.
-
All cats will have been de-wormed and treated for fleas prior to adoption and will have received a wellness examination by a veterinarian. The cat's health record will be included in the adoption paperwork.

Ruffle
Ruffles is now available for adoption. She is about two years old, spayed and vaccinated. Ruffles has been with us for many months. She arrived very afraid and with gentle persuasion she now enjoys pets and attention. She's not ready to be picked up though. She would be best in a home where people would give her love, space and a quiet environment. She's come a long way and we think she will be a great addition to a family who will be patient with her.
