Adoptions
Please download the form below for the type of animal you are looking to adopt. All animals currently looking for their forever home are available to view on our "Available for Adoption" page.
​
We do not work from a waiting list for adoptions as we aim to find the best possible forever home for each and every animal that comes into the rescue. We need to ensure the purrr-fect match is found for both you and the animal and we feel this is the best way to do this to ensure you both have the happiest life together.
​
Please note, all adoptions will only be approved once a form has been fully completed, a successful home check has been carried out and the full adoption fee has been paid. (The adoption fee will only need to be paid once the adoption of an animal has been agreed and finalised with you and the Moonstone Rescue Team)
Please download the form for the type of animal you wish to adopt, complete it and email it to info@moonstonerescue.com to start your application.
The Adoption Process
Step 1: Apply
Download and complete our adoption application form, then email it to info@moonstonerescue.com.
Step 2: Confirm Your Details
We’ll ask you to provide a copy of photo ID and proof of address (if not already included with your form). This helps us confirm the information on your application.
Step 3: Virtual Home Check
We’ll arrange a virtual home check, usually via WhatsApp video call, to chat with you and see where your future companion might be living.
Step 4: Application Review
Once the home check is complete, we’ll review everything and let you know if your application has been accepted via email.
Step 5: Matching You with the Right Cat
If accepted, we’ll start looking for the best match based on your complete application. We consider your preferences (such as age, gender, personality) and lifestyle, and we’ll introduce you to animals that could be a great fit via email.
Step 6: Meet Your Match (Virtually!)
You’ll receive photos, videos, and a full background on the cat. You’re also welcome to ask any questions you may.
Please note: We don’t offer in-person visits as our animals are in private foster homes and we respect the privacy of our foster carers.
Step 7: Reserve Your Cat
Ready to move forward? A £20 non-refundable reservation fee donation secures your chosen cat. This amount is deducted from the final adoption fee donation.
Step 8: Adoption Day!
We’ll confirm when your new companion is ready to go home and arrange the handover date, time, place, etc. You’ll also sign an adoption contract on the day.
