Story
Save Time! READ!! Complete an application, fillable on our website!   **Adoption fee is $150.00 first kitten/cat and 50% for the second, includes preventatives. Kitten series vaccines, rabies and spay/neuter and microchip. Kittens over 6 months of age are $50 (no additional discounts) \   **Sneak peek kittens can be viewed on our FB Group CATS Resort. We try to post as much as possible on social media for your selection purposes.   *We only hold kittens (OVER 8 weeks of age) with a full adoption fee paid (non refundable if you cancel) otherwise, we pass up other potential adopters for a "on hold" kitten, only to find out they changed their minds and we missed a window of opportunity. You can submit payment once your application is approved and the kitten has been deemed medically stable.  If the kitten you are interested in is NOT 8 weeks old, we ask that you do not send payment until their medical health has been stabilized.               **Payments can be made through our website.   *Once they reach 3 pounds, they will be spayed/neutered (we pay) and given their rabies vaccine. Once we know when the surgery date is, we ask that you arrange a quick kitten vet appointment per our adoption agreement, we will schedule the finalization) Banister Veterinary Hospital, local to us, 845-331-1050 is very accommodating for this!  We recuperate 2 days post-operatively before medically releasing them to their new FURLESS homes.   *When the adoption process is finalized in person, there is a binding contract that needs to be reviewed and signed. Our contract strongly indicates a vet appointment within four days of adoption. Please make your vet appointment as soon as we are discussing the adoption date, as we do not do diagnostic testing. We provide health records at that time. We do routine immunizations, preventative care for internal and external parasites and treat symptomatically.   *This is a slow process. We are two women and the rescues in our care are priority. Mothers and babies, plus field trapping, being on the road,  fundraising for medical costs, handling social media, emails, calls and more....sorry, please be patient. Messages are responded to in the order in which they were received both method and chronological.   *We can move over to communicating via text (once all is approved) and you are added as a contact in my phone. We BEG you, don’t start multiple modes of communication. It just slows things down looking for the original content in order to be able to respond appropriately. We do not have staff to answer calls.
