Adopt, Don’t Shop: Give a Rescue Cat the Forever Home They Deserve

Welcome to Stray Animals Matter (S.A.M.) Adoption Page—where love begins with a paw print.

Every cat in our care has a story. Some were found wandering the streets, others were surrendered, and a few came from heartbreaking situations. But they all have one thing in common: they’re ready to start over—and they’re waiting for someone like you to give them a second chance.

Why Adopt from Us?

At S.A.M, our cats receive medical care, love, and socialization from a team of passionate volunteers. We take the time to get to know each cat’s personality, quirks, and needs so we can match them with the right home. Whether you’re looking for a playful kitten, a laid-back lap cat, or a shy soul who needs a little extra patience, we’re here to help you find your perfect feline companion.

What You Get When You Adopt:

A healthy, vaccinated, and spayed/neutered cat

A pet that has been loved and cared for in a foster or shelter environment

Support and advice from our experienced team—even after adoption

The joy of saving a life and gaining a forever friend

The Adoption Process:

1. Browse our available cats at petco, or the cat cafe in Auora. We hope to have our adoption center done by the end of the year.

2. Fill out an adoption application—this helps us get to know you and your lifestyle.

3. Meet your match—we’ll schedule a meet-and-greet to ensure it’s a good fit.

4. Welcome your new best friend home!

Not Ready to Adopt Yet?

That’s okay—there are many other ways to help. Consider fostering, volunteering, or donating to support our mission.

Every adoption makes room for us to help another cat in need. When you adopt, you're not just changing one life—you’re making space to save more.

Thank you for choosing rescue. Let’s find your new feline family member today.
