What are Working Cats?
Occasionally, we receive cats who are not socialized with humans and aren't equipped for the indoor cat life. These guys would rather be out stalking prey than fraternizing with humans - ick! The best option for these 'feral' cats or 'community cats' is TNVR (trap-neuter-vaccinate-return). If for whatever reason the cat cannot be returned to their old stomping grounds, the next best option is our "Working Cat" adoption program.
Peggy Adams believes there is a place for these kitties, even if they won't thrive in a traditional home environment. The Working Cat Program allows these cats an opportunity to find a home through a non-traditional adoption program where they will be provided shelter, access to food and water, and the opportunity to live fulfilling lives prowling for pests and basking in the sun. If you are able to provide basic care and an indoor/outdoor space such as a barn, garage, warehouse, covered patio, etc. adopting working cats is a great way to ward off pests while saving lives!
FREE Adoption Benefits:
“When I saw Max, he instantly gave me the stank eye, but I fell in love anyway. He’s so much more than just a working cat. I mean, he does a fabulous job at keeping critters away, but, it turns out, he actually loves people, even though you would have never know that when first meeting him. He truly enjoys the company of our chickens and dogs and is absolutely fascinated with our neighbor’s pig. Max is the perfect addition to our family. He’s such a cool cat. I’m so happy that he picked us to be his people. Adopting a working cat has completed our family.” –Stacey Lambertt
“Minnie is a perfect part of our company family. She is always on mice patrol in our office and is a pro. She caught 7 mice in her first 5 days with us! We absolutely adore her, especially when she plops herself on the keyboard for some loving while we’re working on a big project. One can’t help but show her some love. We feel honored to have Minnie.” – Analisa
“I’m literally obsessed with Spartacus. I have to be honest. He loves me the most of anyone in the family. We’re truly BFFs. Not only has he rid the barn of mice, he has made friends with our dog, horses, kids, all the neighbors and he is absolutely in love with our pig. He’s amazing and is loving his life outdoors. Thank you, Peggy Adams for bringing Spartacus into our family.” – Emily Plante
