    Lifetime peace of mind — every adoptee leaves with a registered microchip.

How does the adoption process work?

Browse our cats, fill out an application, meet your potential match, and complete a quick home check. We want every adoption to be a forever fit.

What's included with each cat?

Every cat goes home spayed or neutered, FVRCP & rabies vaccinated, microchipped, flea & tick treated, house-trained and socialized.

Is there an adoption fee?

Yes — fees help cover the medical care every cat receives before adoption. Reach out and we'll share current fees and what they include.

Where are the cats located?

Our adoption events are held at PetSmart Deland, 2661 S Woodland Blvd. Many of our cats also live in foster homes across the area.

Can I sponsor instead of adopting?

Absolutely! Monthly sponsorship covers food, litter and vet care. You'll receive updates on your sponsored kitty.

Are donations tax-deductible?

Yes. Hope n Whiskers Cat Rescue Inc is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, licensed and insured in the State of Florida.

Open your heart. Open your home.

Whether you adopt, sponsor or donate — you change a life today.
