Adoptions
When deemed socially and medically ready, our rescued cats and kittens are placed up for adoption. An adoption donation is required to help Pink Paws cover the medical costs incurred in caring for these cats and kittens. This donation is discussed with potential adopters during the adoption process.

Pink Paws attempts to make the adoption process as easy as possible. Below are the steps you will go through as you work with us to find the right kitten/cat for you and/or your family.
The steps include:- Identifying a cat that you are interested in;
- Inquiring about the cat;
- The Adoption Application;
- Approvals & Scheduling A Meet & Greet:
- Meeting the Cat;
- The Adoption Approval and Preparing for the kitties arrival home.
