Want to adopt a cat? You've come to the right place. We have a number of lovely cats in care that are waiting to be matched up to their perfect forever home.
Please send an enquiry and tell us about yourself, your family/housemates/friends, your home and most importantly... what kind of personality and good looks you are seeking from a feline companion.

With over 60 cats in care in our foster network and more coming in all the time, if we don't have a cat to suit you right now, we will very soon!
So hit that enquiry button, send us the info and our adoptions team will send back how to get approved to adopt from Cat People of Melbourne and how to meet our cats!

Please note: we have a separate profile for kittens (https://www.petrescue.com.au/listings/817883), and have a strict kitten pairs policy unless you have a young, cat-friendly cat at home.
------------------------------------------------------

To adopt a cat from Cat People you'll be required to have a remote or in-person house check done, show photo ID & proof of address, and fill out & sign an adoption contract.
Cats from our group are all are vet checked, flea treated, wormed, vaccinated and desexed before being taken home by their adopters. Additionally, all of our cats have been evaluated for behavioural traits, fed a high-quality diet, and well socialised. Please note: all Cat People cats and kittens are indoor only, this is not negotiable.
We will communicate with you through every step of the adoption process to ensure that your experience (and the cat's) is excellent and that you are confident in your decision to adopt a feline companion. Returns are only accepted due to health issues confirmed by a veterinarian.
We only accept adoptions from people with residency in Australia. If you are on a work or student visa, talk to us about fostering with the group instead!
