Though Callie does not want to be your BFF, she would love to rid your barn, factory, warehouse, nursery, automotive shop, winery, or garage, etc., of mice and other destructive vermin.
Working cats are a safe, inexpensive way to control the rodent population while providing a home for a cat who cannot be adopted out to an indoor home because they are not socialized to humans. **NoVa Cats Advocacy will cover adoption fees of any working cats at the Clarke County Humane Foundation, AND provide transport within a 1-hour distance of Berryville, VA.**
WHAT YOU SUPPLY: Working cats need to be supplied with fresh water, food and straw or other warm shelter daily. They require a minimum of 30 days crated in their final "office" in order to acclimate to the area. (More info about care in link below.)
WHAT SHELTER SUPPLIES: All working cat pairs are neutered/spayed, ear tipped, and microchipped, and are up to date on rabies and distemper vaccines.

Working cats may be housed off the adoption floor to reduce their stress levels; please ask a staff person to meet them.
