Adopting A Friend
Home for the Holidays special adoption prices!
During November and December, our adoption fee has been reduced to $125 per kitten or cat (everything included is listed below)... AND if a second kitten or cat is being adopted to the same family, then our price is $100 each!! We are offering this incredible deal so that our MANY beautiful kittens and cats can finally be adopted to their forever homes!! We desperately need to make room for more! Don't see what you are looking for in our adoption section?? Please contact us as many available are not even listed yet!!!
Our regular adoption price of $150 includes a feline leukemia test, distemper vaccine, parasite treatment and spay or neuter. Our price also includes a free vet exam within 24 hours of adoption and six weeks of free pet insurance. If adopting a second cat or kitten from our rescue at the same time, we will offer a reduced adoption fee. The cost of the vet care included in our adoption package is worth in excess of $300 per cat and kitten! We offer a reduced rate which makes it affordable for people to adopt. For every kitten and cat that we adopt, it makes room so that we can help other kittens or cats in need.
Please take a moment to read about the special rescued kittens and adult cats that are now available for adoption ... and we hope that one (or two) of them will tug at your heartstrings!!

Who We Are
Our Mission Statement
TAPA advocates for the humane treatment of feral and stray cats, and promotes TNR (Trap Neuter Return), a humane solution to the overpopulation of cats in HRM. Our goal is to rescue colony kittens and provide them with medical care, and then place them for adoption. Adult cats that are not suitable for adoption are humanely live trapped, spayed, neutered, leukemia tested, vaccinated, ear notched for identification and then returned to their colony.
Our Values
Our commitment to TNR (Trap Neuter Return) in HRM spans 20+ years. First and foremost, the cats we commit to helping are our first priority. The homes we entrust our rescues to must meet criteria which will ensure the kittens or cats are provided the best care possible and are in agreement to a life commitment of caring for this responsibility. We act with integrity in dealing with our rescues and are ambassadors for the feral cats who are often forgotten or overlooked in our society. As a registered society, we are accountable for the funds entrusted to us to care for our kitten and cat rescues.
What have we done?
Since August of 2007 TAPA has helped almost 400 kittens and cats from various outdoor colonies in the HRM area.
