Did you know? Senior or older cats often go overlooked in shelters and spend a longer time waiting for a home than younger cats.
Here at Cape Ann Animal Aid, senior cats (6 years or older) used to spend an average of 46 days waiting for adoption. In an effort to help senior cats find homes faster, we offer a reduced adoption fee for all senior cats over 6 years as part of our Super Seniors Adoption Program. The fee for cats 6 years and older is $50, and the fee is waived entirely if the adopter is over 65.
Within the first six months of starting our Super Senior Adoption Program, we saw a 75% increase in senior cat adoptions. By the end of 2018, senior cats spent an average of just 16 days waiting for adoption -- that's a 65% decrease in adoption wait time! Senior cats make great pets and many have a lot of years of life and love left to give! Please consider opening your heart and home to a Super Senior Cat today!
This program continues to thrive and we are thrilled to help more and more super senior cats each year. Please consider making a donation to help us cover the cost of care so we can continue to offer reduced adoption fees for our senior cats and keep up the adoption momentum!
