How did you hear about us?

Please read these carefully! By submitting this application you are agreeing to abide by the following Smelly Cat Adoption Terms: 

• I am adopting this cat for myself. I will not gift, trade, or sell it in its lifetime. If at any time I can no longer care for this cat, I will return it to Smelly Cat Rescue.
• This cat will be treated as a family member. It will be given love, affection, clean living conditions, fresh food and water daily, and yearly veterinary care.
• This cat will live inside my home. The cat will never be outside without a proper leash, harness, carrier, or backpack.
• I understand cats have a natural instinct to scratch things, including furniture. There are safe & affordable options to deter this behavior. I understand declawing a cat is a painful & inhumane procedure. Smelly Cat Rescue prohibits all adopters from declawing their animals at any time.
• Adult cats are the most overlooked stray/lost animals. Especially if they aren’t wearing a collar. Your cat may be microchipped, but proper identification is critical to getting lost cats returned to their owners. I, the adopter, will purchase a “breakaway” collar for the cat, with an ID tag and will make every effort to always keep this collar on the cat.
• Smelly Cat Rescue is not responsible for any future medical expenses, injuries, property damage, or future legal problems caused by owning this cat.
• I understand a comprehensive medical evaluation has not been done on this cat. It is the adopter’s responsibility to take the cat to a veterinarian for a proper well-check and vaccinations.
• I understand that failure to perform the duties listed in this agreement will result in a breach of contract. In such an event I authorize Smelly Cat Rescue to reclaim possession of adopted cat.
• Ownership will automatically finalize upon completion of adopted cat(s) sterilization procedure that will be scheduled by Smelly Cat Rescue.
• We offer a 21-day medical return policy. If within the first 21-days of ownership a medical condition is discovered that you don’t feel you can handle, or should have been disclosed, Smelly Cat Rescue will accept the cat back and refund the adoption fee. Smelly Cat Rescue will not reimburse any veterinary or other care expenses incurred during the 21-day period.

I agree to these terms
