10 Reasons to Adopt a Cat from Animal Resource Center

1. All ARC cats are spayed and neutered.
2. All ARC cats are tested for feline leukemia (FeLV) and feline immunodeficiency virus (FeV).
3. All ARC cats are up to date on their vaccinations.
4. All ARC cats have their vet records released with their adoption.
5. All ARC cats are free roaming at our site. Only newcomers are caged until they are seen by a veterinarian.
6. Because our cats are not in cages, they are more socialized with people and with each other. Our staff and volunteers continue to work on socializing our more timid cats.
7. We know the personalities of our cats and can try to link the right cat to the right person.
8. All ARC cats are part of our own extended families. We check references and perform a home visit with all adoptions to ensure the future welfare of our cats in their forever home.
9. The adoption fee is only $35.00.
10. Adopting an ARC cat makes room for us to take in another unwanted, abused or abandoned cat.
