We're Open for Walk in Adoptions!
Purrfect Pals is now open for walk-in, same day appointments. Our adoption hours are Tuesday through Saturday 11am to 4pm. There may be wait times depending on staffing and we strongly recommend completing a pre-adoption questionnaire for the cat you are interested in before visiting.
Please note that if you are interested in one of our special needs cats, there maybe extra time needed or a second visit scheduled. We want to make sure that you are fully supported in your decision to take home a special needs cat and that you have all the information to set you and your new cat up for success.Â
We Believe Every Cat Matters.is Adoptable.Deserves a Second Chance.
At Purrfect Pals, our highest priority is taking in the cats and kittens who need us most… those who other shelters and rescue groups might not have the resources to help. This includes senior cats (though we prefer to call them “vintage”), cats with major medical needs, cats with chronic illnesses (including FIV and Feline Leukemia) and those with behavioral challenges.
Our cat adoption and rehabilitation programs help us place homeless cats, including those with special needs, in loving homes. We believe that every cat is adoptable; some just need more time than others to find the right match. Our ultimate goal is to place them with adopters but some might need a skilled foster family in the meantime. We also have room at our main campus sanctuary where they can stay close to our staff for daily care. Purrfect Pals’ cats will always have a home with us for as long as they need it. The Purrfect Pals Sanctuary is currently home to 100+ of these special cats.
We truly believe that every cat, with or without special needs, matters and is deserving of a forever home. After all, people aren’t perfect. Why would we expect our cats to be?
