Adoption Application | Animal Allies

Thank you for your interest in adopting from Animal Allies in Virginia! We want to help ensure the best possible match between you and our kitties. Remember, this is a lifetime commitment.

Please fill out the form below and one of our team members will reach out to go over your application.

Once your application is approved we will set up a meet and greet with your desired cats/kittens. If you decide to take them home, we will have you fill out a legal contract which includes a spay/neuter agreement if applicable (though our kitties will already be fixed in most cases).

Once the kitties are happily settled, you will be asked to pay a donation fee that helps cover the medical care the pet(s) received under our rescue including spaying or neutering, leukemia/FIV testing, and any age-dependent distemper and rabies shots.

We generally adopt kittens who are under 7 months old together in pairs, or with another furry companion already in your home. Read more about why having a furry friend for your kitten is beneficial!
