Surrendering Your Cat or a Stray

Due to a high number of surrender requests, our Rescue is currently full,  and at the moment, we are unable to take in any more kittens/cats.  However, our resource page lists other agencies in the greater Phoenix area that may be able to help you. We encourage you to contact them for help with surrendering your cat.

Intake is by appointment only at our rescue in Fountain Hills, AZ.

Most shelters and rescues are limiting their intake of new animals at this time. We suggest trying to rehome your pet by utilizing social media outlets such as Facebook, Instagram, Next Door, or Rehome by Adopt-A-Pet. You may find additional help on our Resource page. Be sure to check with your family, friends, co-workers, or neighbors, they may be interested in adopting your pet.

If this surrender is a previously adopted Fearless Kitty, please send us an email at info@fearlesskittyrescue.org and we will contact you to arrange for return of the kitty.

Cats being considered must meet an Intake Team Member for behavior/medical evaluation and must meet the following criteria:

– Be friendly with humans (must enjoy being handled; we are unable to take feral cats).
– Be friendly with other cats.
– Be behaviorally and medically healthy. No contagious disease (FeLV, ringworm, etc.)
– No history of biting.

Please be as thorough as possible when answering the questions below.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION PLEASE READ:

Thank you for submitting your request.  Our team will review it and you should receive a response within 72 hours.  If you do not receive a reply, please check your spam folder. We are asked to take in 3,500 kitties a year and while we want to take them all we simply can’t.

After completing our intake request, please continue to look for placement with another group.

We know that surrendering a cat can be an emotional experience, but with limited resources, we cannot provide individual updates regarding their status.  If you would like updates, please sign up for our monthly newsletter, follow us on Social Media, or check out our *Adopted Fearless Kitties* page. Thank you for understanding.
