Rehome a Cat

Outdoor Cats

Outdoor Cats

We sometimes have cats surrendered to us that are not appropriate for placement into indoor only homes.  Often these cats are used to an outdoor or indoor-outdoor lifestyle, sometimes with little interaction with people.  Being in a shelter can be a stressful place, particularly for these cats. Finding appropriate homes for them is a high priority in order to prevent undue stress and disease.

You can adopt one or more of these cats if you have a suitable place for them. All of our cats are spayed/neutered, vaccinated and microchipped!  These designated cats will be placed with NO adoption fee.

Some Recommended Tips for Keeping Your Outdoor Cat Happy and Healthy

Provide an enclosed place to house the cats for one to two weeks while they become acclimated to their new environment. Placing food, water, a litter box and a bed in this area will help them learn where their home base is.

Outdoor cats still depend on us for basic care. We need to provide the Five Freedoms:
1. Freedom from hunger
2. Freedom from discomfort
3. Freedom from pain, injury or disease
4. Freedom to express normal behavior
5. Freedom from fear and distress
Studies show that outdoor cats that are fed regularly are better mousers because they have better overall health and energy. Therefore, these cats should have access to adequate shelter, a safe, dry bed, dry food and fresh water.

Keep your outdoor cats current on their vaccines to prevent illness and infection.
