Adoption applicants must be 21+ at the time of application, with valid identification.
Adoption applicants must live within one hour of Almost Home Adoptions and have reliable transportation.
Kittens do best when they have a friend! Almost Home kittens are typically adopted as pairs. Click here to learn more about why kittens do better with a friend!
We adopt out single kittens only to homes that already have at least one cat.
We have a rigorous adoption process that first requires an application. If the applicant appears to be a good match for the cat(s) applied for, an interview and home visit will be required before the application is considered for final approval. The application and adoption processes may take up to a week.
We review applications as they are received and may move forward with a match at any time to ensure the best possible fit for each cat. We often receive multiple applications for the same cat or kitten. While you are always welcome to apply, please note that a cat may be adopted before all applications are reviewed.
Submitting an application does not guarantee an interview or adoption. Our goal is to find the best possible match for each individual cat and home. Due to the high volume of applications we receive, and for the privacy of our adopters and the safety of the cats in our care, we are not able to provide specific feedback on applications.
Adoption Fees
As a nonprofit rescue and sanctuary, these fees help offset a portion of the medical care and daily support we provide to all cats in our care, including those who may never be adopted.
Each adoption fee includes:
- Spay or neuter
- Testing for FeLV, FIV, and heartworm
- Up-to-date vaccinations
- Deworming
- Wellness exam by a veterinarian
- Microchip
Our adoption fees range from $175 to $225 depending on the age of the cat or kitten:
- $175 — Cats 1 year and older
- $200 — Cats 6 months to 1 year
- $225 — Kittens under 6 months
Adoption applications must be completed in person at the rescue, during our regular adoption/visitation hours. We do not do any adoptions online, via email, or over the phone.
All adoptions require a live home visit (via Google Meet) prior to final approval. Photographs or videos are not accepted.
We take our adoptions very seriously, and our goal is to find the best home for each cat and kitten in the Almost Home family. We will take multiple applications and may interview all applicants prior to making an adoption decision.
Please do not ask us to separate bonded pairs; such requests will not be considered.
