Adoptable Cats
About
the program: There are relatively
few foster homes or rescue groups willing to take large numbers of cats
or kittens. Although our success at improving their survival rate has
been very modest, we have been successful in lowering the destruction
rate very slightly (1% - 5%). In addition to Animal Control
adoptions for cats, volunteers have re-homed approximately 50 animals
through this program. On a selective basis, from Animal Control
or the public, we receive cats or kittens or mothers with litters. The
animals are vetted and sterilized and private owners or caretakers are
often asked to keep them until homes came be found. Animals are
photographed and posted on Petfinder.com and the CPC website as well as
featured in The Rutherford Weekly. Routine adoption
events are held for cats throughout the Spring – Fall, and last year a
total of 7 cat and kitten adoption events were held at Tractor Supply
Company. Mark your calendars for our Cat Adopt-a-thons on the first
Saturday of each month from 11:00-2:00 pm at EarthDog Pet Spa on Rail
