Adoption Process

FORM:  https://form.jotform.com/mhewryk/tinypurring-adoption-app

*The adoption process takes from 7 to 14 days per average, to finalize the adoption:

a) We are doing it on a volunteering time basis.

b) The longer TinyPurring has an interaction with the potential adopter, the more we can learn about future kitty's home, and the potential adopter can learn about the kitty and TinyPurring making sure it is a right fit.

ADOPTION PROCESS:

1. Please look at TinyPurring Gallery to get familiar with available kitties

2. Please fill in and submit  the Adoption Form

3. Please schedule the call with TinyPurring's  volunteer to have a 30 min conversation about the adoption details, including topics such as a transition period, a transition room, a backup plan if you have to leave home for more than 24 hrs.

4.  TinyPurring will schedule a virtual tour via video call (Messenger, WhatsApp, FaceTime, etc)

5. TinyPurring will exchange videos and pictures 

6. Cross reference check will be performed (yours and ours)

7. We schedule an adoption/transfer date and time


SENIOR ADOPTERS

We warmly welcome senior adopters. Please use our 82/13 rule:

- When you turn 82, your cat should be at least 13 years old.

Quick check: minimum cat age now = your age − 69.

• Example: you’re 75 → 75−69=6 → choose a cat 6+ years old.

• Example: you’re 80 → 80−69=11 → choose a cat 11+ years old.

If a cat reaches their senior years (around 13+) and sadly loses their beloved Meowmommy or Meowdaddy, we understand that, in some cases, the most compassionate choice may be to let them go peacefully. This helps ensure we can keep space in our foster homes to welcome more homeless cats in urgent need, and with over 200,000 in the GTA, every space matters.

Please do a quick math check before applying. Thank you for your kindness and understanding.
