How did you hear about us?

I understand that an approved application does not guarantee that the kitten/cat will be placed with me. The final decision rests with our foster families, as they know their cats best. Cats are not placed on a first come, first serve basis; they are placed based on which home is the most appropriate and best fit. If you are not selected for your first choice cat, please give us an opportunity to match you with another cat that is likely equally wonderful. *

This cat is being adopted as a family pet. The cat will have extensive housing privileges and remain safely inside the home unless arrangements are made in writing prior to adoption. I agree to provide this cat with proper food, water, shelter, love and necessary veterinary treatment.  I agree to give DK visitation rights to ensure that the terms of this adoption agreement are being observed.  *

I WILL ASSUME ALL RISKS AND RESPONSIBILITIES REGARDING THIS CAT’S MAINTENANCE, WELFARE AND HEALTH CONCERNS.  I agree that the cat being adopted under the terms of this contract appears to be in good health; however, I understand that DK obtains cats that are strays or from a third party. Therefore, all information regarding its age, health status, or other issues is estimated and IS NOT WARRANTED by DK. Dexter’s Kitties is not responsible for any medical expenses incurred after the adoption process. We suggest a “wellness” exam at your personal veterinarian’s office as soon as possible after adoption. *
