In the shelter’s words
My name is Paola. I had been living outside and had two litters of kittens (only one survived) before I was caught and vetted. I was at a shelter that thought I was feral, but I was just cautious because of my experience on the street. Thankfully, KSC stepped in. I’m still shy but I love hanging around with my girl pals here in the room (Claudette, Lindy, Capuchin). We take comfort from one another. We sometimes have been seen walking side by side with our tails intertwined! I look forward to finding a forever home with a cat-savvy person who can give me a quiet home where I can acclimate and thrive (and maybe get a Churro every day!). Oh, also, I would prefer a home without children or dogs that might scare me but with another quiet female kitty.

Plan a visit with the source organization
When a person comes to the adoption center or mobile site, they fill out an application and a volunteer interview them and ask about your cat knowledge and experience as well as other pets. Applications go through an approval process. We help match the cat with each family according to home environment and lifestyle. Some adult cats may be adopted singly, but we prefer to adopt out kittens in pairs unless adopters have a playful cat or dog already in residence to keep the kitten company. Once a cat is adopted an adoption contract is completed. King Street Cats asks for a $125 non-refundable adoption fee to adopt a cat or kitten, or $225 to adopt two. All cats has been to a vet and tested for FELV/FIV. Adult cats are up-to-date on vaccinations. Kittens will have had vaccinations appropriate for their age. All cats & kittens are spayed or neutered before they are placed for adoption.
