Thank you for your interest in adopting a cat from Queen City Cats! We are grateful for your help in saving precious lives of cats and kittens in our community.

Each adoption includes a cat who has been:

⦁ vet checked

⦁ spayed or neutered

⦁ vaccinated with age-appropriate vaccines

⦁ de-wormed

⦁ microchipped

⦁ FIV/FeLV tested

⦁ treated for fleas and ticks (if necessary)

You will also receive:

⦁ a complimentary wellness exam by participating VT veterinarian of your choice

⦁ a Rolling Meadow Natural Pet Market coupon

⦁ an enrichment item for your new cat or kitten

All of our cats will have spent time in foster care before transitioning to their forever homes. We not only provide a loving environment and all necessary vet care, but we also assess their demeanor and get to know their unique personalities so we can make the best possible match for them and for you, our adopters.

Based on our observations, their age and their history, some cats will require a home with another cat companion for their mental well-being. Kittens 6 months and under will be adopted out in pairs and bonded pairs (no matter their age) will also stay together.

When you adopt from QCC and sign our adoption contract, you agree to:

⦁ provide your cat companion with a safe and healthy indoor environment

⦁ provide a nutritious diet and fresh water daily (catinfo.org)

⦁ never punish or harm your cat in any way

⦁ never declaw your cat (pawproject.org)

⦁ provide vet care at the first sign of illness, injury or disease and to stay up to date on all necessary vaccines

⦁ responsibly care for your cat for the duration of his/her life which can be up to 20+ years

⦁ if the above becomes impossible and you feel relinquishment is the only option, you must make every effort to contact QCC and return the cat to our organization

If you are interested in any of our available cats, please fill out our adoption application below. Once we have received your completed response and have checked your references, we will email you and let you know if you've been approved to adopt or not. If you are an approved adopter, we will put you in touch with your preferred cat's foster parent to arrange a Zoom or in-person meet and greet. If the meeting is successful, we can then schedule the adoption appointment.

Please note: if we feel your preferred cat(s) would not be a good fit for you or your household, we may suggest another cat who would better fit your lifestyle. This is at our discretion. If there are no other available cats, we will hold your application for up to 6 months.

You must have your own secure cat carrier(s) when picking up your new companion(s). Otherwise, we will not be able to complete the adoption at that time.

The adoption fee must be paid in full at the time of the adoption meeting. We accept cash, check (with valid ID), Venmo and PayPal.

Adoption fees are as follows:

Single kitten (< 1 year old) = $150
Pair of kittens (< 1 year old) = $200
Adult cat (1- 8 years old) = $100
Pair of adults (1- 8 years old) = $150
Senior (8+ years old) = $75
Additional senior = Donation

Queen City Cats will be here to guide you even after you adopt one of our cats. Feel free to contact us with any questions or to give us updates on your new feline companion(s). We are always here for you and the kitties!
