zAdoption Screening FormX

Thank you for taking your time to complete our Screening Form.  The questions we ask allow us to determine if your family will be a good match for the cat you are considering. Please read this introduction before proceeding. 

Candy's Cats (CCI) permits cats to go home on the day of the adoption but relies on the truthfulness of the answers provided.   You must be at least 21 years of age to adopt a cat from us. If you live at home, your parents/guardians must fill out the Screening Form.   We  verify the all the information provided.  All information on your application will be confirmed. At any time if the information you provide is not correct, we will not proceed with the adoption.  All of our kittens must be adopted with another companion kitten. If the cat or kitten is bonded, the names will be joined and we will not separate them. Some parts of the form are generated by our website provider and we can't change them, so please reply with either an appropriate response for the question. (For example, use your cell number if you don't have a home phone.) Please note, CCI may refuse an adoption for any reason without having to state the reason. There are some counties that have pet restrictions and if you have reached the county limit, you may not be able to adopt from CCI.  Completing an application does not guarantee an adoption. We make an effort to match up the best home for the kitty, so please be patient as we are continuing to receive applications sometimes right up until the cat is ready for adoption. Once our vetting process is complete, if you are selected to adopt we will contact you.  

Adoption Process

1. Submit Application
Please go to www.candyscats.org/forms - Screening Form to expedite the adoption process.  Management company/landlord's name, number and website of apartment complex or housing development, must be provided if you rent. If your ownership of the property does not show on the county records (law enforcement, etc.) please email proof of your ownership of the residence.  
Please note: applicants who submit an incomplete screening form may not be considered for adoption or it will delay the processing. Each question must be completely answered to the best of your ability. If we can't verify the information, will cancel the adoption process.
2. Interview
We may contact you by telephone or email to go over your information.
3. Home Check
We may do a home visit. Refusal to permit us to visit your home at any time during the adoption process will cancel the adoption process.
4. Approve Application
Your application is preliminarily approved. Our next step is to set up a meet and greet by appointment.
5. Meet the Pet
During the meet 'n greet, based on the interaction with the cat(s), our trained volunteers will determine if the adoption can be finalized. 
We ask that if you have small children or are married or have a significant other, please bring them with you so we can see how they interact with the cat(s).
6. Sign Adoption Contract
Our Contract is digital so you will be asked to complete it either before you meet the cat(s) or after you have met the cat(s).  Photo identification must be made available for all adoptions. 
7. Pay Fee
Our adoption fees range from $100-$150 per cat(s) at our discretion to change the fee depending on the cat.

YOU MUST BRING A PET CARRIER WITH YOU IN ORDER TO TAKE YOUR CAT HOME. No cat will be taken from the premises without a carrier. You can purchase one at our partner store locations.
