How do I surrender a cat to you?
We’re sorry to hear you need to surrender a cat. All surrenders are considered by the manager, over the phone, during business hours ONLY. Please call first to see if we have space. We are a no-kill cat shelter that does NOT return to field, so our ability to take surrenders is heavily dependent on space and vet finances.
Will you accept ___ type of pet?
We only house cats in our building. Give us a call and we should be able to point you in the right direction for surrendering your pet elsewhere.
Do you have free or low cost vet care?
Unfortunately, we do not have any veterinarians on site. We recommend FL Aid to Animals or Brevard Spay and Neuter as low cost options for routine vet care. If it is a life threatening emergency, please take them to an emergency facility. Animal Specialty and Emergency Center (321) 752-7600 is the closest pet emergency facility to us.
Kittens get adopted very quickly. We try to post them on our Petfinder page once we get to know their personalities and needs, but coming to see what we have or giving us a call might be best. Depending on their personality and situation, kittens under 6 months old either go home as a pair (2 kittens) or must have a cat friend at home for them to play with. We rarely do single kittens, they are very social and need a friend! Our kittens are only ready to go home once they have been fixed and are healed and healthy, so expect them to be at least 12 weeks of age.
How much is it to adopt a cat? What should I bring?
The adoption fee is $90.00 per cat or $150 for bonded pairs. Paying with card is preferred. All cats will be fixed, up to date on shots, tested for FIV and FeLV, microchipped and dewormed. Please bring a cat carrier with you, we do not provide carriers by default. You may also be asked to provide paperwork that your pets at home are up to date on shots, fixed, and tested for FIV/FELV. Identification is required, and if applicable, a copy of your lease if you rent with the clause that states you are allowed pets, how many, and if there will be any fees.

Can I foster cats or kittens?
Yes! Go to our Volunteer page and fill out our foster form. Our volunteer coordinator will email you to talk about what your experience or interests are. Please note, all fosters will be on a list, and there will be a wait before you get your first foster. We do not accept new cats that will need fostering unless we have a foster waiting in the wings, ready to scoop them up and take care of them!
