Garfield’s FAQs

What is Cat Association of Topeka’s adoption process?

Anyone interested in adopting a cat or kitten is asked to fill out an application. This enables us to assist them in selecting a cat or kitten best suited to their wants and lifestyle. It also helps us avoid placing a cat in a situation where it may become stressed or endangered. We also ask that all family members come in to help pick out a cat.  The shelter will accept the return of any cat (adopted from C.A.T.) for any reason.  When a cat is brought into the shelter it is given a general exam, receives an upper respiratory vaccination, dewormed and a rabies vaccination. It is then spayed/neutered, tested for Feline Leukemia or Feline AIDS, and made available for adoption. Once an application is approved, adoption fees are $100 for kittens up to 6 months old, $75 for 6 months to 9 years old, and $35 for senior cats 10+ years old.  All new owners get a 10% discount in our Catty Shack Retail shop
