Requirements

Preference is given to adopters within 2 hours of Richmond, Virginia. Kittens must be kept indoor-only and cannot be declawed. Single kittens are only adopted into homes that already have at least one active resident cat; otherwise, kittens must be adopted in pairs. Kittens 9 months and older or adult cats may be adopted into homes as the only cat.

How it works

Prospective adopters must submit an application for an animal listed on the available adoptions page. Because animals are housed in private foster homes, adopters must meet their potential companion in person prior to finalizing adoption.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What medical vetting is included in the kitten adoption fee?

Prior to adoption, all kittens are treated for fleas and parasites, tested for FIV/FeLV, receive age-appropriate vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. They also go home with medical records, a small bag of food, and favorite treats and toys.

Can I adopt a single kitten if I don't currently have any pets?

No. Tiny Paws RVA only adopts out single kittens to homes that already have at least one active resident cat. If there are no other cats in the home, kittens must be adopted in pairs.

What should I do if I find a kitten in need of rescue?

Reach out via email at TinyPawsRVA@gmail.com or via Facebook Messenger with as much detail as possible, including the location, situation, and photos or descriptions of the kittens.

What are the declawing and indoor rules for adopted cats?

All adopted cats and kittens must be kept strictly indoor-only and must keep their claws (declawing is prohibited).
