Adopt a Kitten or Cat in the Bay of Plenty
Adopt a Rescue
Our Moggies, just like us, are one of a kind. They come in all colours, sizes and ages, each with a unique personality and all with a special someone out there waiting for them.
Our operation is small so we personally get to know each of our animals and try our best to match them to homes we think they'd thrive in.
By telling us a little about yourself, we can see who may be a good fit. Things like location, current pets, family at home and renting vs home ownership are all are great points to cover. The better we get to know you the closer the match!
The Adoption Process
Finding a fit
The right fit is important to us so we ask a few questions about our potential adoptive homes to get the adoption process started.
Things like location, current pets, family at home and renting vs home ownership are all are great points to cover. The more you tell us the better we get to know you to see if we have a match!
Meet & Greet
If we have a match in foster care, or within the community, we'll arrange a time for you to meet them in person.
Most adoptions happen from the homes the cats are most familiar with so you get the best feel of how they may fit within your family dynamic. Come with an open mind. We set up the adoption visit but ultimately we let the cats pick their people.
Adoption!
Our rescues come desexed, with their first vaccination, microchipped, registered on NZCAR and up-to-date with their worm/flea treatments.
We ask an adoption donation of $220 to go towards vet expenses.
For adoption in community cases (outside of foster care) no fee is asked but we encourage a donation to continue the work we do in supporting those who are struggling beyond our doors.
Price.
Adopting from a Rescue is often much cheaper than the paying costs of getting each step of the care they recieve done privately.
Health checked.
Each animal under goes at least one health check during their time in the Rescue, and if unwell, receives the care they need to thrive.
Socialised.
Animals are fostered in family homes so are familar with typical day to day routines, other animals and people of various ages.
Toilet trained.
Cats and kittens are adopted confidently using litter boxes or pads inside. If older, they are comfortable with toileting outside.
