Adoption Process at Twitchy Tails

Our adoption process is designed to ensure both the well-being of our cats and the happiness of their future families. Here’s what you can expect.

Step 1: Fill out an Application: The first step in our adoption process is to fill out an adoption application here: www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/TTRC/Cat 

Step 2: Application Review: Our volunteers will review your application, contacting vet references, landlord permissions, home ownership, etc. An applicant is always informed whether an application is approved or denied. If the information on the form checks out, one of our friendly volunteers will call you. This is our opportunity for us to get to know you and your preferences in cat ownership. This is a great time to ask any questions you may have about our cats and our adoption process. Due to the thoroughness of our review process and volunteers’ availability, this stage takes on average 3-8 days to complete. 

Step 3: Meet the Cat: Upon approval, we'll arrange a meet and greet between you and the cat in their foster home. You're welcome to meet multiple cats at our rescue to find a good match. If you meet a cat and don't feel a connection, there's no pressure to adopt. 

Step 4: Adoption Paperwork & Payment: If you do find your purrfect match, we'll email you the necessary paperwork to review and sign. An adoption fee is paid to support our rescue efforts and cover some of the cat's medical costs, then you can arrange pickup for your new furry companion! The cat’s medical documents and microchip information will be emailed to you upon adoption. 

Please note that while we strive to find loving homes for all our cats, Twitchy Tails Rescue reserves the right to decline an application at any point in the adoption process. Thank you for considering adoption through Twitchy Tails Rescue.
