31295 Mama Cat Domestic Short Hair Bend, OR

Meet Mama Cat! Mama Cat first came to us in Bend, Oregon back in October from a shelter we partner with in Norman, Oklahoma thanks again to our non-profit transport partner Dog is My Copilot! Mama Cat is a shy girl, and so it can take her a little longer to warm up and come out of her shell, so we recommend a more calm, quiet household where her person or people are patient with her and will allow her the time she needs to settle in properly once in a new home. A home without puppies and younger kids might be best, and one that has fewer visitor traffic.

Submit your online adoption application through our website today to not miss out on this opportunity to bring this girl home for an in-home adoption trial towards her adoption. Will you be my hero?

***Christmas Special!!! Our Adoptions Manager will chip in and help sponsor $20 towards her adoption fee for the right home. Won't you consider giving this gentle girl a chance and bring her home today!***

steps to adopting

(OUR ADOPTABLE DOGS AND CATS ARE IN SEPARATE TEMPORARY FOSTER HOMES BETWEEN BEND/CENTRAL OREGON AND THE GREATER PORTLAND AREA. THEREFORE, MEET AND GREETS ARE NOT DONE AT OUR FACILITY. TO LEARN MORE, PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR ADOPTION APPLICATION ONLINE AND OUR ADOPTION PROGRAM MANAGER WILL REACH OUT TO YOU WITH FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO MEET YOUR NEW PUP!)

The first step to adopting a dog from SDH is to complete the adoption application. First click on the OUR DOGS tab up above, and then click on the orange colored Fill out an Adoption Application here button to start the process). Once submitted, please expect 3-5 business days or sooner for processing and to hear back from us. Once you are pre-approved, your adoption application will remain on file with us for 1 year and it can go towards multiple adoptions within that 1 year time frame before it expires.

To finalize an adoption you must sign the adoption contract and pay the full adoption fee of $60. The adoption fee helps cover our costs. On average, per dog, it costs SDH between $500-$700 for vetting/medical/sterilization, transport and other rescue related expenses. All dogs are rescued and do not transport to SDH until they are healthy and ready to be adopted. All dogs are examined by a veterinarian before they fly, which includes sterilization whenever possible, given standard vaccines and rabies (if age appropriate). Most dogs are sterilized before they come into our program, however if this is not the case we will spay/neuter them once they arrive at our cost.

Upon their arrival, all dogs are seen for a wellness exam by SDH's medical team. Once the adoption is finalized, any further medical care or treatment will not be covered by SDH, unless discussed prior with our medical team. All known issues are disclosed to the best of our ability prior to finalizing the adoption.
