Dana and the Cats: Foster/Adoption Application

All cats are dewormed, treated for fleas, tested for FIV/FELV and negative unless otherwise noted, vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered. Kittens too young to be spayed/neutered and still needing boosters on vaccines will be arranged by the rescue once old enough. Our adoption fee is $200 which goes towards the above vetting and allows us to continue rescuing new cats. 

All kittens under 6 months old must be adopted with another kitten unless you have a young playful cat at home.

Once approved to adopt, we ask adopters to arrange pick up within 1 week. If you have upcoming travel plans, please apply closer to the time you are ready to adopt.

We are a small rescue and we respond to applications as quickly as possible. Our current response time is 2-5 days. At this time we do not have the capacity to respond to rejected applications.

What are you looking to foster/adopt?*
Do you currently have pets (of any kind)? Please tell us what you have, including their ages:
Are these pets all spayed or neutered?
 *
Are these pets up to date on vaccinations?
 *
Please provide details for your pet's vet clinic and the names they are listed under (write NA if no current pets) *
Please tell us a bit about your past experience with cats specifically (pets, foster cats, pet sitting, etc.) *
How many people currently live in your home? If any of them are under 20, please include their ages.  *
Does anyone visit your home on a regular basis (eg a housekeeper, grandparent, clients, etc.)? *
Are any members of your household allergic to cats?
 *
Please describe your home (house or apartment, number of floors/rooms, any outdoor space/balconies, etc.)
 *
Unfortunately, cats can and do fall out of windows, off balconies, etc, which can result in injury or death. How would you prevent this from happening in your home?
 *
Are there any activities in your home (artwork, indoor gardening, etc.) that could potentially pose a hazard to a cat?
 *
Please estimate how many hours a day the cat would usually be alone, with no humans present. Most adult cats are fine being left alone for long periods of time, but some cats need more attention and stimulation, so we want to make sure we match the right cat to the right household. 

 *
Approximately how often, and for how long, do you travel (ie stay away over night)?

 *
Who would take care of the cat(s) if/when you were away?

 *
Have you ever dealt with a pet's behavior problem? What was it, and how did you manage it?
 *
Is there any behavior problem that would make you return a cat?
 *
Do you have a preference for a particular kind of cat / personality? 
 *
What are you planning to feed your cat?
 *
If applying to adopt, only: If you could no longer care for your cat(s), due to serious illness, having to leave the country, a difficult move, etc. do you have a plan for what you would do with your cat(s)?
If applying to adopt, only: Over the course of a cat's lifetime, the costs of supplies and routine veterinary care can be significant, even without serious medical issues. Dental care, which many cats need at some point, may cost $1000 or more in NYC, and a hospitalization can cost more. Pet health insurance can make costs more manageable and many vets offer care credit options. 

If your cat were to need veterinary care that was more than you could manage, what do you think you would do?
If applying to adopt, only: Would you get pet insurance for your cat?
 *
Please provide 2 references. At least one should be unrelated to you and both should be able to speak to your ability to care for a cat. This could be someone you have pet sit for, a roommate who has lived with you while you've had pets, a professional contact that can speak to your responsibility. 

Please provide their names, relationship to you, and phone numbers.

Are you comfortable with a "home visit" being conducted over video to verify the safety of your home?

You made it! Final question: How did you hear about us?
