Adoptions

We know talking to potential adopters can feel stressful so we've pulled together a few simple lines you could add to any email. If you're unsure of what to say to potential adopters please feel free to email us for guidance!


Keep it simple!

Hi ____ ,

I've been fostering sweet _____ for about 3 weeks now and they are so cute! ____ loves to explore and chase lots of toys! After a hard day of play _____ will cuddle on the couch and make cute biscuits or purr while we cuddle. The perfect home for ____ would include lots of toys, head scratches, and maybe even a dog/cat friend! Let me know if you want to set up a meeting and greet to meet this cutie!

Thanks!

If you're fostering a cat with behavior issues or maybe is a litter shy, don't fret! We can help you come up with the right words.

Hi ____ ,

I've been fostering sweet _____ for about 3 weeks now and they are so cute! ____ loves to explore and chase lots of toys! ____ can sometimes be a little overwhelmed and hide, but with time she/he warms up. The perfect home for ____ would be a calm and patient home with lots of toys.

Let me know if you want to set up a meeting and greet to meet this cutie!

If you are fostering a kitten under 7 months you might want to mention single kitten syndrome to potential adopters.

Hi ____ ,

I've been fostering sweet _____ for about 3 weeks now with his/her littermate and they are so cute! ____ loves to explore and chase lots of toys! After a hard day of play _____ will cuddle on the couch and make cute biscuits or purr while we cuddle. At this age kittens learn a lot of their social behaviors from their siblings so at the APA! we suggest adopting kittens in pairs. It actually is less work for you because your kittens will always have a playmate and friend to keep them happy. This is merely our suggestions and not a requirement. If you do decide to adopt two, the APA! offers a discount! The perfect home for ____ would include lots of toys, head scratches, and maybe even a brother/sister to play with! Let me know if you want to set up a meeting and greet to meet this cutie!

Thanks!
