Find the Perfect Cat for You

Cats need your commitment for life and those of different ages have various needs.

There are so many cats to choose from that it can be hard to know where to begin. The answers may lie in considering your own lifestyle. Are you a couch potato who wants a cat to nap along with you? Do you hang on every fascinating word a kitty says? Is kitten-watching more fun than watching TV?

Kitten or Cat?

Kittens have lots of energy and you never know what personality will come out as a result of your purrenting.

Adult cats are ready made. They are typically calmer and come fully assembled ready for your love.

Personality

They come in all kinds – from high energy to couch potatoes. Come in and see what fits your lifestyle today!

Special Needs Cats

Although these cats may require more veterinary visits and extra special attention from you – this makes your commitment to them all the more special.

Short or Long Fur?

Most all cats have fur with the exception of the Sphinx breed. Long haired cats can require more help with their grooming so be prepped to learn some kitty beauty secrets while visiting Cat Depot.

Purebread or Mixed Breed?

We have all types and sizes of cats available for adoption throughout the year! Purebred cats often are more expensive. Mixed breeds receive their classification from their coat patterns rather than their parentage. Different breeds can have different personalities.

Room for One More?

In considering an addition to your family, you need to assess your lifestyle, whether your current pets get along with others and what changes may lie ahead or you – ie moving, new job, new family members, etc. We can help walk you through the possibilities.
