Covid-19 Update: VIRTUAL ADOPTIONS BY APPOINTMENT

While all our adoption centers remain closed, we are excited we are now offering adoptions by scheduled appointment. At this time, an adopter cannot meet their animal until after they have completed virtual counseling with an adoption counselor and their application has been approved.

How to Adopt

STEP 1 – View Adoptable Cats Online

To be considered for adoption, please check our adoptable cats listings (below) see which cats are currently available for adoption. We will be adding new pets throughout the week, so check back often.

STEP 2 – Fill Out an Adoption Interest Form

After you have identified a cat you are interested in, you must first fill out an online cat adoption interest form and indicate which animal you are inquiring about.

Applications will be processed in the order are received, and we cannot guarantee that the animal you see online does not already have a potential adopter.

STEP 3 – Complete Virtual Counseling

After your application has been reviewed, an adoption counselor will contact you to provide remote counseling over the phone, sharing any medical or behavioral information we have about the animal and answering your questions. 

STEP 4 – Meet and Take Home Your New Cat

After your remote counseling session has been completed and all of your questions have been answered, we will schedule a time and place for you to meet the cat you are interested in. Adoption appointments will be scheduled for one hour. If you choose to adopt, the adoption will be processed at that time, and you will take home your new furry family member. Please respect social distancing during your appointment.

Adoptable Cats

We will be adding more adoptable cats to our website throughout the week. We ask for your patience during this time. We are experiencing staffing disruptions and are working through a new way to adopt grateful cats and dogs while keeping our staff and community safe. Thank you for your understanding! #TeamKentucky #HealthyatHome #TogtherKY
