Adopting

Fees, requirements & process

From $150

Generally $150 per cat / $225 for 2 cats (fees may vary by pet)

Requirements

Applicants must be at least 18 years old (application notes age 20 requirement), provide three personal references (at least two non-family members), provide veterinary history showing current pets are vaccinated and altered, and provide landlord approval/lease provisions if renting. All human household members must attend the foster home meet and greet.

How it works

Applicants submit an online adoption application, which undergoes review and reference checks (taking up to 7 days). Once approved, a meet and greet is scheduled at the foster's home with all household members required to attend. If both parties agree it is a good match, the adopter signs an adoption contract and pays the adoption fee.

How much does it cost to adopt a cat?

Adoption fees are generally $150 for a single cat or $225 for two cats, though individual fees may vary as listed on each pet's profile.

Can I visit the cats before submitting an application?

Because Finally Home Animal Rescue operates entirely out of private foster homes, visitation is limited to applicants who have completed and received approval on their adoption application.

What happens if I can no longer keep a cat I adopted?

You are required to contact Finally Home Animal Rescue to return the pet. The rescue maintains a lifetime commitment to all animals in its care and does not allow adopters to surrender the animal to another shelter unless mandated by law.

Do you accept out-of-state adoption applications?

Yes, out-of-state applicants are welcome, but the rescue does not ship animals; adopters must be prepared to travel to meet and pick up the pet in person.
