Adopting a Friend
An interview, application and home visit, followed by a 5-7 day trial visit of the selected pet in the prospective adoptive home. An Animal Care Adoption Contract is required to be signed by the adopter and a FFF representative, and a recovery/adoption fee is tenderedThe adopter(s) must be of legal age to sign a legal contract.
FFF does NOT allow FFF animals to be given as gifts or adopted for third parties.
FFF would appreciate a contribution to help offset our veterinary costs which include:
- Combo test for FeLV and FIV (feline leukemia and feline AIDS)
- First FVRCP
- Spay or Neuter
- Pain medications for recovery
- De-worming
- Flea control
- Microchip
Special circumstance adoptions are available for eligible adopters.
Micro-Chipping
In an effort to provide our FFF graduates,
their families, and our dedicated FFF fosters/staff with peace of
mind, we are exploring micro chipping all of our adoptees. This will provide a safety
net for our formerly friendless felines that go on to their new homes.
If FFF begins microchipping, then FFF will be listed as the secondary contact in the event that an emergency
or unforeseen circumstance causes them to be lost, stolen or strayed.
This should make sure that our FFF adoptees will always have a friend
if they are in need and always be "formerly friendless".
Appointments
We show our
cats by appointments at your home. Appointments can be made with FFF through our HAVE CAT WILL TRAVEL Program, 925-209-5431. Availability
of the cats or kittens for appointment depends on the availability of
the foster and transportation arrangements. If you see a cat or kitten
you are interested in on our website, contact Sally via our email or
by phone to check on the availability of that cat or kitten for evening
appointments.
Adoption
Criteria
As a rule, FFF prefers not to offer kittens
until all veterinary test results are normal. All FFF cats
and kittens are combo tested for feline AIDS and feline Leukemia prior
to adoption. Therefore, we will not release any cat or kitten for adoption
until we can be assured of an accurate test result.
FFF's philosophy:
We will not knowingly adopt any cat or kitten into your home that
we wouldn't place in our own homes. We appreciate your understanding.
