♦ "Finding that "Purrfect Match" ♦You can fill out an application to adopt either online or at one of our adoption events. There is no obligation for submitting an application. If you are approved and decide to adopt a cat, we request a $75.00 adoption donation fee to help defray the veterinary expenses. If you are interested in seeing a specific cat, please feel free to contact us so we can schedule a meeting with the appropriate foster person. All of our cats are in foster care since we currently do not have a shelter. None of our cats are caged and have free roam of the foster person's house. We get to know the cats on a personal basis and can tell you more about the cat's personalities since they are with us 24/7. Please note our rescue organization does not adopt out of state due to the intial home visit and followup visits. Please check with your local rescue organizations and shelter to find a kitten or cat. Applicants must supply the name and number of their veterinarian. We will call the veterinarian to verify that your current or former pet is receiving the medical care he or she needs. If you do not have any pets, then we require the name and number of a personal reference that does not live with you. Our philosophy is to create the "Purrfect Match" everytime. This will ensure that you and your new companion will be happy for the rest of your lives. Please remember that cats are living longer and can live well into their 20"s. Adopting a cat is a commitment for life. The $75.00 adoption donation includes the following: ♦ FeLV/FIV Testing - a $30 value This adoption fee helps defray the cost of our veterinary expenses. Many of our cats may require All adopters are required to sign a legal binding adoption agreement at the time of adoption. If for some reason you can't keep your adopted cat, IBK does require the cat be returned to the organization. We also have a strict no-declaw policy. Declawing is considered an painful amputation of the cat's toes and can result in behavioral issues. Please consider adopting a previously declawed cat instead. Declawing Your Cat At times, we will post a cat on our website as a private adoption. This will be clearly noted on our website. If you are interested in a cat that is listed as a private adoption, please complete an online application. We will process your application and pass your information onto the current owner or caretaker for the cat you are interested in. IBK will not be involved with the adoption process once the application is passed onto the current owner. The current owner and potential adopter will agree upon the terms of the adoption. IBK does not make any representations or guarantees pertaining to the private adoptions. ♦ Please allow our volunteers 48 hours to process your application. If you apply online, please check your email as we will respond to you via email. ♦
