[ARCHIVED] Adult Cats Need Love, Too!

Waived Cat Adoptioins

Kittens are adorable and it is no surprise that many feline adopters come to our shelters in search of a baby kitty. But it isn't very often that potential adopters ask about adult cats.

Adult cats tend to be overlooked by adopters, so that's why we waive adoption fees for all cats over six months of age. We know what you're thinking ... giving away cats means they won't go to good homes. But you know what? You're wrong. In fact the ASPCA has done extensive research on this very topic and has discovered that "free" cats does not devalue the animal in the eyes of their adopters.

But more importantly, waiving adult cat adoption fees helps us save more lives. If "free" gets people into the shelter to adopt our cats, then we are willing to give it a try. And we hope you will too!

Visit either MC Animal Care shelter and come fall in love with an adult feline. All cats are spayed/neutered prior to going home. All of our cats are given a feline 3-in-1 vaccination when they arrive at the shelter.
