A contract is a legally binding agreement between parties, setting out their rights and obligations. Responsible fosterers/rehomers use legally binding adoption contracts to ensure the well-being of the cat. By signing, adopters commit to providing proper care, keeping the cat indoors, and not abandoning them. Failure to adhere to the contract can result in legal consequences under the Animals and Birds (Amendment) Act 2014, including imprisonment or fines.

Despite the myth, cats only have one life, and it's our responsibility to keep them safe. They have a strong flight response, can fit through small spaces, and need to be protected from high places. Cat-proofing is essential to prevent accidents and ensure your cat's safety and well-being.

They can fit in small spaces, and no matter how fat the cat is, it can fit through an opening, so long their head can fit through. You can refer to this video to see how amazing their skills are at trying to fit through tight spaces:- https://youtu.be/qlJTLSncEV4

As community cat caregivers, we form a strong, loving bond with these cats. Before removing a community cat, please contact the main feeder/caregiver to discuss your intentions and seek further information on its behavior, temperament and health status. Ensure your home is fully cat proofed for the cat to prevent accidents, and that you and your family are financially, mentally and emotionally able to commit to the animal's lifetime. Be kind and allow visitation or communication with the caregiver.
