Ready-to-Go Cats & Kittens

Cats and kittens are usually able to go home the same day* and will have received the following care:

• Spayed or neutered

• Flea treated

• Treated for internal parasites

• FVRCP vaccinations (age appropriate)

• FeLV/FIV tested

• Microchipped

• Nails trimmed
  (This is a lifetime benefit — we are happy to trim nails anytime for adoptees)

• Adoptive families will receive a complete medical history outlining all treatments and procedures.

* In some cases, a kitty may still be awaiting spay/neuter surgery and will be ready to go home after the procedure.
