Frequently Asked Questions
What is the adoption process like?
Our adoption process is straightforward yet thorough, designed to ensure the best match for both you and our kittens. It begins with a quick chat via message or call to understand your family’s needs and preferences. Next, we recommend visiting our kitten room to meet the potential options for your home and spend time getting to know them.
If everything feels right, you can adopt on the same day you visit, or we can arrange transportation to your home at a later date. We’re also able to coordinate transportation to other countries overseas, ensuring our kittens find loving homes wherever they’re needed. Once you’ve found your perfect match, there’s just a bit of paperwork to complete before your new furry friend is ready to join your family!
Do we have to fill out any paperwork?
Yes, we use a contract similar to those of municipal shelters and rescues across Portugal. This ensures all adoptions comply with Portuguese law, which requires that all pets be sterilized and microchipped.
The agreement also includes a commitment to love and care for your new family member(s) throughout their life and to provide any necessary veterinary care they may need. This ensures their well-being and happiness in their forever home.
What if the kitten already has a microchip?
If one of our kittens already has a microchip before adoption, we will ask you to fill out an additional document so we can transfer the microchip details to you, completing the adoption process.
How does Hello Whiskers match kittens with families?
We love to play matchmaker! Each kitten and cat in our care has a unique personality, and we take the time to get to know them well. By understanding your family’s needs, lifestyle, and preferences, we can recommend a match that suits you best—whether you’re looking for a playful companion for your kids, a calm lap cat, or a spirited adventurer to keep you entertained.
This personalized approach helps ensure that both you and your new feline friend have a happy and fulfilling bond.
What is the adoption donation, and how does it help?
We ask for an adoption donation, but the amount is flexible and can be whatever your home is able to provide. We understand that every family’s financial situation is unique, and we don’t want cost to be a barrier to finding the right match.
Your donation helps us continue our rescue work, including:
- Medical care for kittens and cats.
- Vaccinations, sterilization, and microchipping when kittens are the right age.
- Food, supplies, and other essential care.
Every contribution directly supports our mission to save and rehome more kittens.
Are the kittens and cats available for adoption healthy and ready for adoption?
Absolutely! Thanks to our quarantine process and dedicated care, all kittens and cats receive full medical attention before adoption. This includes deworming, flea treatment, sterilization (when appropriate), vaccinations, and microchipping, depending on the kitten’s age and when they enter our rescue. We also ensure they are socialized and prepared for life in a loving home. Each kitten is carefully nurtured to ensure they’re healthy, happy, and ready for their forever family.
What is your quarantine process?
All of our rescued kittens and cats go through a minimum two-week quarantine period before entering the kitten rooms or becoming available for adoption.
This quarantine process serves two key purposes:
- Protecting Healthy Kittens: It ensures that no illnesses or viruses are spread to the kittens already in our care.
- Ensuring the Health of the Rescue: Within this time frame, any viruses or illnesses will become apparent, allowing us to treat all issues and guarantee the kitten is healthy before leaving our loving hands.
This extra step is part of our commitment to providing healthy and happy kittens to their new homes.
Can I adopt a specific kitten or cat?
Yes! You can browse our available kittens and cats on our website. However, because things can change day to day, the best way to find out who’s currently available is to contact us and speak with one of our team members. You can also follow us on our social media channels, where we regularly post updates on who’s available for adoption
What if I need support after adoption?
We’re here for you even after the adoption! If you have questions or need advice about your new furry friend, our team is just a message away.
Do I need to keep in contact?
We absolutely love to hear from you! We care deeply about all the kittens and cats that come through our rescue and enjoy following their journeys as they grow in their forever homes. While it’s not required, you’re welcome to update us as much or as little as you like. We often share updates on our social media, and your stories help us inspire our followers to continue supporting our rescue efforts. It’s always wonderful to see how our rescues are thriving with their new families!
Have you sent kittens for adoption overseas?
Yes, we have successfully sent kittens for adoption overseas! We are happy to arrange transportation to other countries, ensuring that our rescues find loving homes wherever they may be.
There are specific requirements for international adoption, including up-to-date vaccinations, microchipping, and any additional paperwork required by the destination country. We will guide you through the process to ensure everything is in order.
As for costs, they vary depending on the location and transportation method. Please contact us for more details, and we’ll be happy to discuss the options and associated costs with you.
What countries have you sent kittens to?
In the short time we’ve been operating, we’ve successfully sent kittens to several loving homes across the globe. So far, our rescues have found their forever families in Toronto, Canada, Los Angeles, USA, and Vienna, Austria, as well as throughout Portugal. We’re proud to see our kittens traveling far and wide to bring joy to their new families!
