Foster-to-Adopt

So You’re thinking aBout adopting but want to foster the cat first…this is the program for you!

Our Foster-to-Adopt Program is for cats that are not in our adoption lounge, but still need a home! These cats are available to be fostered before their adoption is finalized. Since you are not able to meet the kitty first, we offer a foster period of seven days for you to see if it's a good fit. You will take them home and get to know their personality over the week. If after seven days all is going well, we would finalize the adoption paperwork. 

The cats in the lounge at The Catcade are not available for Foster-to-Adopt. Only the cats listed on this page are available for FTA.

If there is a cat below that interests you, please email Elle at elle(at)thecatcade.org

Schnuckiputzi - female, 1 year old. “Tortitude” at it’s finest.

Oh, Miss Schnucki. This girl is quite a handful. I hear she’s running around with her foster siblings (cats and a dog) and loves leading the chaos. Now the only reason Schnucki gets along so well with her foster friends is because they are as cool as cucumbers. Do you have a really chill cat at home who wouldn’t mind a little gremlin running about? You would be a great home for Schnuckiputzi! If your cat has not met other cats before, is maybe a little territorial, and is not fond of sharing snacks, your home would not be the best fit for this gal. She’s just looking for her happily ever after where she can have her henchmen understand that she’s top cat.

Schnucki would do best in a home where there are other relaxed animal friends. Schnuckiputzi has too much energy to go as a solo cat.

Jinxy - female, 8 months old. Play hard, nap harder.

Jinxy is the definition of “work hard, play hard.” This girl is all up in your business, climbing ladders, wanting to see what you got in your pantry. She wants a ribbon toy, and she wants it ASAP. Jinxy is going to want an active friend in the home, so if your home stash cat has been recently driving you up the wall because he wants to play for the 100th time in an hour, maybe you bring Jinxy home and the two of them can pal around and brew up some crimes?

Jinxy is a special lady who finds new environments and new friends intimidating. She is going to need someone who is patient and experienced with introducing cats to make her feel comfortable. If your cat has never met another cat before, or is also a bit territorial, she’s probably not your girl. Jinxy’s as sweet as can be, she’s just nervous at first and needs to feel fully comfortable before she lets her wild side show.
