Adopt a Cat or Kitten

At PurrJoy Cat & Kitten Rescue, adoption is about more than finding a home — it’s about creating a lifelong match built on safety, love, and commitment.

Every cat and kitten in our care has been deeply loved from the moment they arrive. We take the responsibility of placing them into forever homes seriously, which is why we have a thoughtful adoption process designed to protect their well-being.

Our Adoption Philosophy

We believe cats deserve:

  • Safe, indoor-only homes

  • Proper medical care and lifetime protection

  • Companionship and enrichment

  • A family committed to them for life

Our policies aren’t meant to exclude — they exist to ensure every cat leaves our care with the best possible future.

Before You Apply

Please review our adoption guidelines before submitting an application:

✔ Indoor-only homes
✔ Kittens must have a feline companion (another kitten or an existing cat)
✔ Spay/neuter required before adoption is finalized
✔ No declawing — ever
✔ Microchipped for life (PurrJoy remains a secondary contact)
✔ Donation-based adoption
✔ Return-to-rescue policy if rehoming is ever needed

Adoption Information

We recently transitioned to a new software system, and some imported pet profiles may not yet reflect complete or updated information. Please note that all of our cats receive the following care before adoption: spay or neuter, microchipping, rabies vaccination, FVRCP vaccination, and deworming.

Foster to Adopt
Kittens who are not yet old enough for their rabies vaccine (under 12 weeks) or have not reached 3 pounds for spay/neuter are placed in a foster to adopt arrangement. This means the adopter agrees to complete the remaining vetting requirements. Until those steps are completed, the placement is considered foster to adopt.

Adoption Fees
Fully vetted cats: $125
Kittens (Foster to adopt until proof of rabies and spay/neuter is complete — have received deworming, FVRCP vaccination, and microchip): $50

For full details, please review our adoption policies listed with our available cats. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.

The follow up care and concern given to them by her after they were secured ensured they were on their way to living their Best Cat Life! Thanks again for ALL of your hard work and dedication!"
