We’re excited to assist you in your journey to find the perfect feline companion, and we’re confident that with our help, you’ll soon be sharing your life with a wonderful new friend.
Our volunteer foster homes play a crucial role in our adoption process by getting to know our animals intimately and understanding their unique personalities. This deep understanding allows us to create great matches between our cats and potential adopters.
We’re here to make your adoption experience as seamless and enjoyable as possible. Pre-approved adopters can meet multiple cats at our adoption events, and there is no wait to start meeting cats!
Adoption Process
-
-
- BROWSE. Explore our available animals online or visit us at our weekend adoption events! If you are hoping to adopt the same day, please apply a few days before your visit. If you’re visiting our Verona Adoption Center and haven’t been pre-approved yet, you are welcome to view cats already in visiting rooms 1-8, but pre-approved applicants take priority. To take cats staying in condos for private visits, you’ll need a pre-approved application.
- APPLY. Fill out our easy, no-obligation online adoption application. If you’ve already fallen for a specific cat or kitten, let us know in your application! Not sure yet? No problem—just select “undecided.” Picking a specific animal doesn’t mean you’re locked in; it simply helps us process your application faster. Be sure to answer all questions fully to avoid any delays. By sharing this information with us, you’ll receive personalized attention and guidance to help you find a cat that’s a great fit for your family and lifestyle.
- APP REVIEW. Our volunteer team aims to review applications within 1-3 business days. We’ll reach out if we need any extra info or to let you know when you’re approved. If you don’t hear from us, be sure to check your spam folder. Undecided applications will be contacted from teamkamyaw@gmail.com.
- ADOPTION. Once approved, come meet your potential new best friend at our Verona Adoption Center or Petsmart East Madison during our event hours—no appointment needed! Some cats can be met by appointment by approved adopters, so check their bio for details. Please be prepared to take your new cat home the same day, as we often cannot offer holds.
- We’re here to help you find your perfect feline friend, and we look forward to assisting you in the adoption process! Your application stays on file for four months.
