Apply to Adopt

Pet adoption is a big decision and has many aspects to consider. Falling in love with an animal is easy and quick but please make sure it’s the right choice for yourself and the pet. Pet ownership can be rewarding and fun but only if you think through your decision before the adoption. Please consider your lifestyle, schedule, and family to ensure that you will make the best choice possible for yourself and the pet.

Barn Cat Program

HSWC regularly takes in formerly outdoor or indoor/outdoor, semi-social or semiferal cats that are not suitable for our adoption program. Our ‘Working Cat’ or barn cat program is designed to find homes in barns, warehouses, farms, outbuildings, and other safe locations where they would thrive. For most, outside is home.

Why adopt a barn cat? Barn cats benefit their caretakers! Supporting a barn cat is the safest way to control the rodent population in your barn, warehouse, or other storage areas. There are no poisons for children and pets to get into and no need to set nasty traps. Barn cats will keep rodents away and you will have the satisfaction of giving them a much needed home. Since they will be spayed and neutered, you won’t have to worry about unwanted litters, yowling, or fighting, resulting in a stable population.

Please note: HSWC prefers to adopt out barn cats in at least pairs (but not limited to) as the relocation process tends to be easier with a friend. Single barn cats may be adopted out on a case-by-case basis to barn homes that already have an established colony.

Please understand that there are only certain cats designated for this program and an employee or volunteer will gladly point you in the direction of those specific cats  Be aware we may not have a good candidate for a barn cat at the exact moment you come in, but that you can be put on a wait list and we will notify you when someone becomes available.
