The Adoption Process
Finding a fit
The right fit is important to us so we ask for a bit of background to help us determine who may be a good match.
All adoptions are made on 'fit over face', so compatibility is prioritised over what a kitten or cat looks like.
Meet & Greet
If we have a match, we'll work together to organise a meet & greet.
This will either be in their foster home, or at one of our Adoption Days.
As many of our foster parents work full time, viewings are most common on weekends, or evenings on weekdays.
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. Reduced fees may be offered for special cases.
Adopt a cat or kitten in the Bay of Plenty
Our Moggies, just like us, are one of a kind. They come in different colours, sizes and ages, each with a unique personality and all with a special someone out there waiting to welcome them home.
Tell us about yourself.
This is your opportunity to introduce yourself and help us get to know more about the home, and family, you're looking to welcome a rescue into.
Think of this like an interview - but for your future fur kids! The more information you provide, the easier it is for us to find the best match on both sides.
Please consider:
-
Your household and who lives with you.
-
Your lifestyle and daily routine.
-
Your experience with animals.
-
The personality of your pets.
-
What type of home you can offer, including your property type, distance from the road, and where the animal will spend their time.
-
How long the animal would typically be left alone.
-
Any other information you think would help us understand the home you can provide.
There are no right or wrong answers - we simply want to make the best possible match for both our foster animals and our adopters.
5 Reasons
to Adopt
a Rescue
Price.
Adopting from a rescue is often much cheaper than paying for each step of the care they receive independently.
Health checked.
Each animal under goes at least one health check during their time in the rescue. If unwell, they receive 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.
