CNY SNAP administers a cat and kitten adoption program through our Cortland shelter and the PetSmart in Dewitt. Adoption fees include spay/neuter, vaccines, testing for FeLV/FIV, microchip, flea treatment, and deworming.
Applications from prospective owners are reviewed for suitability and cats are placed into loving homes. Consider taking a cat or kitten into your home and your heart today!

Adopting Kittens in Pairs
At CNY SNAP, we require young kittens go to their forever homes in pairs, unless you already have a playful kitten or a young cat at home. Our goal is to make sure the kittens we rescue and nurture are adopted into homes that provide the best environment for their behavioral and social development. It’s not about boosting our adoption numbers; it’s about ensuring each kitten finds a home where they can thrive with another young feline friend/companion. Most rescue groups have similar policies. Learn more about the benefits of adopting two kittens. We’re all in for giving them the best start in life! 🐾
