JUNE IS ADOPT-A-SHELTER CAT MONTH!
All cat adoptions are only $5 (not including any applicable spay/neuter fees).

Thinking About Adopting
A Cat?

Consider the following:

A quiet indoor life is ideal for cats. Indoor cats live as many as 10 years longer than outdoor cats because they avoid the hazards posed by cars, other animals, and the elements.

If you are gone for long periods out of the day, think about getting two cats.

Cats have an inherent need to scratch in order to remove the dead nail sheaths from around their claws. Providing a scratching post, cardboard scratching box, or heavy twine wrapped around a board will help deter clawing your furniture (with a little training). Trim your cat's nails every two weeks. DO NOT DECLAW A CAT! It is painful and a form of mutilation.

Remember that cats need yearly vaccinations and, in some areas, licenses. They also need regular veterinary check ups.

Microchipping is a way of permanently identifying your cat even when she is not wearing a collar. All cats adopted from AFV are microchipped.

Most importantly, have your cats spayed or neutered. Every year, many more cats enter shelters than there are homes available for them. The only way to end their overpopulation is by spaying/neutering.

AFV has many dogs and cats that need good, loving homes. Visit the shelter and our off site adoption shows, held every Saturday at PETCO in Temecula from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
