Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / May 2004Adoption contract? & a Fearsome Foursome update
OK - as you all know, I have 4 kittens that I will be adopting out, with the help of a local rescue agency. I was wondering if any of you have any sort of Adoption Contract? One that I could maybe use and/or modify to fit my specifics? I don't want these kittens to go to just anyone, and I want to make sure that they are INDOOR, not declawed if at all possible, etc., etc. Also have any ideas of appropriate adoption fees? Also, the Fearsome Foursome have been moved from the (enclosed) front porch to our bedroom. The door is open but blocked off with a large piece of cardboard. So far Tennessee and Weeble have braved hurdling the cardboard (it's just high enough to keep kittens in, but the other cats can investigate when they want to) to sniff at a kitten, only to be frightened by another kitten pouncing on them from behind, and then fleeing the room ;) Big scaredy cats. All four were currently napping on the bed when I left the room a few minutes ago - a 4-kitten pile-up! They have not had any formula for a few days now, and have taken to the canned kitten food very well.

You might wish to send an email to a local rescue agency or to www.houseofmews.com in Memphis to inquire about a scanned copy of their adoption form. They are very, very particular about who they allow to adopt their cats. This all-volunteer agency never puts cats in just anyone's hands. In fact, if the resident cats are not adopted they live out their lives in the rather large old storefront with toys and scritches and people who love them. They have caring vets volunteering services and medical supplies. I know they have an adoption form. You might send email to the site attention Elain Harvey, or write or call: Elain Harvey, Founder/CEO THE HOUSE OF MEWS 944 S.

Ya know, now that I am typing I just remembered that the web site that I scan every day (for new masters) has the ability to fill out a form online. Let me go see if I can get the link for you. Be right back. :) TJ > OK - as you all know, I have 4 kittens that I will be adopting out, with the > help of a local rescue agency.

Be right back. :) How's the search for new owners going, TJ? Hope that you can be adopted by some soon. Pam S. Did you find a contract? We have one, but just hard copies. IMO, one of the most important clauses is the one that prohibits the adoptor from giving the animal away if things don't work out. They have to agree to bring it back to us. Sherry I found one that states that. Thanks. SignatureThe ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

I know that after the form is filled out then you still have to be interviewed and they ask you to elaborate more. Should give you some info. I wish I had a blank one I could fax you or scan for you. http://www.cats-meow.org/adoptionform.htm http://www.azrescue.org/servlet/mmapplications http://members.petfinder.org/~AZ80/SapphireCatsOnlineQuestionnaire2.htm TJ " > OK - as you all know, I have 4 kittens that I will be adopting out, with the > help of a local rescue agency.
