2 Fur 1 Special continued into August, with a twist!

We have decided to continue our “2 Fur 1” special throughout August! Bring home 2 wonderful cats or kittens for the adoption fee of 1! The difference this month, is single adoptions will be $60 instead of the full adoption fee of $100!

That still includes all of the great things we do for our cats and kittens! They have each tested negative for Feline Aids and Feline Leukemia, been spayed or neutered, are current on age appropriate vaccines, are free of internal and external parasites, have a microchip which we register to you, come with a certificate for a free exam and 14 day health guarantee from Oso Creek Animal Hospital, and come with a starter bag of food! You can’t beat that deal! Below is what it would cost you if you picked up a ‘free’ cat or kitten and had these things done yourself. These are the lowest costs to our knowlege in the city. Prices vary by Veterinarian and the spay/neuter prices are for the low cost clinics in town.


Spay $35 Neuter $20
Leukemia/FIV test $30
Rabies Vaccine $12
Distemper/Leukemia combo vaccine $35 (kittens require more than 1 vaccine, so additional costs will occur)
Microchip and Registration $30
Science Diet Cat/Kitten food $9.99
Deworming $10
Flea Treatment $10 (each time)
Free exam and health guarantee - varies by cat

You can’t argue with math! At the very least, a female cat or kitten will cost you $172, while a male will cost $157.


Please consider adopting one of our homeless cats or kittens!
