How does adopting a shelter cat compare with a "free kitten"?
Our adoption fee covers all the items listed above for just $ 75! If you were to go to a local vet to get the same treatments for a kitten you would be paying much more. See the table below to see how it compares*:

	Shelter Cat Male/Female	Free Kitten Female	Free Kitten Male
Spay/Neuter	Included	$ 193.55	$ 148.65
Worming	Included	$ 15.40	$ 15.40
Flea Treatment	Included	$ 14.83	$ 14.83
First Shots	Included	$ 54.16	$ 54.16
Total	$ 75	$ 297.94	$ 233.04

*Costs were based on average pricing of local vets in Posey and surrounding counties. Suggested Surrender Fee: $ 20 for a single cat, $ 40 for multiple surrenders

Important: We are currently not set up to accept feral cats or kittens. We are unable to personally catch or transport any surrenders &/or feral cats or kittens. We do have a live trap available for rent with a $ 40 deposit. For more information on live trap rental or feral cats in general, please call the shelter. We are currently working on a feral cat information page.
