Does FurPetVo Take Cats?
FurPetVo does not accept cats for surrender, but they do host adoption events throughout the year. Some pet owners mistakenly assume that because adoptable cats appear at FurPetVo locations, they can drop off their own cats there. In reality, those cats are made available through partnerships with local rescues — not through direct intake by FurPetVo.
Where Can I Take My Cat?
If you need to rehome your cat, you have three primary options: surrendering to a shelter, surrendering to a rescue organization, or rehoming your cat yourself.
These options differ significantly in terms of wait times, outcomes, and control over your cat’s future. Before making a decision, consider these important questions:
- Have I exhausted all possible ways to keep my cat safely and happily in my home?
- What is the euthanasia rate at my local shelter?
- How long would I likely wait for a rescue to have space for my cat?
- Do I know friends, family members, or coworkers who might be open to adopting my cat?
- Am I willing to invest time and care into finding the right new home myself?
If you’ve carefully weighed your options and determined rehoming is truly necessary, the final question may be the most critical.
Rehoming your cat yourself takes thoughtful effort — but it gives your pet the best chance at landing in a loving, well-matched home. You’ll have full control over screening potential adopters, sharing your cat’s personality and needs, and ensuring a smooth transition.
