Barn Buddies Adoption Program
What is a 'Working Cat' and Why Adopt One?

At times, we receive strays into our care that are not suited to be the cuddly, social creatures in a home environment. The cat may be feral/semi-feral, fearful of people, or may have behaviours that our volunteers have determined are not suited for a traditional home environment, therefore they need an alternative solution. 

We fully believe that every animal should have options and a chance at a healthy and happy life and that is why we have created the Barn Buddy Program. The cats in our BB program will make an excellent addition to any barn, warehouse or outbuilding and provide many benefits such as keeping stray cats away and rodent control. By adopting a Barn Buddy, the best benefit is that you are saving a cat in need and offering it a home.

All cats in our Barn Buddy program come spayed/neutered, and vaccinated, which typically is a regular adoption fee of $200, however, as we are a non-profit charity, we only ask that you make a contribution of $50 per buddy.
