 Adopting a Friend
An interview, application and home visit is required, followed by a 5-7 day trial visit of the selected pet in the prospective adoptive home. At the end of the trial period, FFF will evaluate the trial visit and determine the suitability for adoption. If deemed necessary by FFF, a final home visit is required. An Animal Care Adoption Contract is required to be signed by the adopter and a legal FFF representative, upon final FFF approval. The adopter(s) must be of legal age to sign a legal contract.
FFF does NOT allow FFF animals to be given as gifts or adopted for third parties.
FFF would appreciate a contribution to help offset our veterinary costs which include:
- Combo test for FeLV and FIV (feline leukemia and feline AIDS)
- First FVRCP
- Spay or Neuter
- Pain medications for recovery
- De-worming
- Flea control
- Microchip
Special circumstance adoptions are available for eligible adopters.
Micro-Chipping
In an effort to provide our F.F.F. graduates,
their families, and our dedicated F.F.F. fosters/staff with peace of
mind, we have begun micro chipping all of our adoptees. This will provide a safety
net for our formerly friendless felines that go on to their new homes.
F.F.F. is listed as the secondary contact in the event that an emergency
or unforeseen circumstance causes them to be lost, stolen or strayed.
This should make sure that our F.F.F. adoptees will always have a friend
if they are in need and always be "formerly friendless".
Appointments
We show our
cats by appointments in the evenings during the work week, either at our adoption site, or your home. Appointments can be made with Sally through our HAVE CAT WILL TRAVEL Program. Availability
of the cats or kittens for appointment depends on the availability of
the foster and transportation arrangements. If you see a cat or kitten
you are interested in on our website, contact Sally via our email or
by phone to check on the availability of that cat or kitten for evening
appointments.
Adoption
Criteria
As a rule, F.F.F. does not offer kittens
below twelve-to-fourteen weeks of age for adoption. All F.F.F. cats
and kittens are combo tested for feline AIDS and feline Leukemia prior
to adoption. Our veterinarians have advised us that the testing for
these diseases is not accurate or dependable below twelve-to-fourteen
weeks of age. Therefore, we will not release any cat or kitten for adoption
until we can be assured of an accurate test result.
It is F.F.F.'s philosophy that we will not knowingly adopt any cat or kitten into your home that
we wouldn't place in our own homes. We appreciate your understanding.
