Adoption: Cats
If you are interested in adopting a cat, simply fill out and print an application, submit an application online, or stop by the shelter to complete the process. The adoption fee for kittens less than 6 months old is $99.00 or two for $160.00. Cats 6 months to 8 years old are $79.00 each or $140.00 for two while cats 8 years and up are $59.00 or two for $80.00. The adoption fee includes spaying or neutering, the first series of vaccinations, leukemia testing, internal and external parasite control, a cat carrier, and a collar with ID tag. In light of pet overpopulation problems in Maine, the AWS makes sure that all of our cats and kittens are spayed or neutered before going into their new home.
Check out our Long Term Residents: Each week we will highlight one of our great long-term resident cats. These cats have been at the shelter for more than six weeks and would really love to go home with you! Older cats, black cats, quiet cats...they tend to get overlooked in the shelter environment. Please take a serious look at each cat. This one might be the perfect fit for you!
" Dutchess"
Many thanks to Aubuchon Hardware in Buxton, our newest Satellite Adoption Center! They have offered a temporary home to an AWS long term resident, Dutchess. With a pretty face and a super personality she's sure to find a good home with one of their patrons. Dutchess is a 3 year old spayed cat who enjoys spending her afternoons napping in a window, chasing toy mice and enjoying a chin rub now and then.
Dutchess is a playful and affectionate cat. Her short black and white fur is easy to maintain and she does a wonderful job keeping it well groomed and shiny. This little gem will brighten your day and bring a smile to your face. Visit her at Aubuchon Hardware in Buxton today!!
MORE CATS!! Many local pet supply stores across York and Cumberland Counties participate in our satellite program by hosting an adoptable cat or rabbit (or both)! These animals can be viewed at the pet store, and are cared for by the store staff.
We typically have kittens available during the summer and fall. Our selection of adult cats will vary but we often see a large selection of breeds including Siamese, Himalayans, and Persians.
