In the shelter’s words
Joseph is a charming fellow who loves to play and will entertain you with his zoomies! He lives with dogs and other cats and is great with them all. He's independent but also super affectionate when he's free to choose how and when he shares that affection. He was diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) at a young age; to manage this, he takes Tylan powder in his food each day but eats a normal diet supplemented with ground chicken and American cheese. His adoption fee is $75. Many cats do so much better in pairs, which is why we offer a reduced adoption fee of $25 for the second cat (or more!).

We have an extensive application process where veterinary references are checked (we require all current and past animals have been altered and that the client shows a history of good vet care) and we has a number of questions targeted at encouraging the adopting family to really consider if they are ready financially and emotionally to support an animal life long. We also try to match the right animal with the right home with consideration to the adopters previous animal experience, energy level, and general personality. After reviewing and approving and applicant (on paper), we meet with them and all members of their house hold including other resident dogs. We offer one week trials to ensure this decision is in the best interest of both human and animal. If all parties are confident upon meeting, then we have a contract which also states that if any anytime they are unable to keep the animal, that they will return in to our organization. Adoption fees vary from $100-275 based on age, size, and breed, with $175 as an average.
