Barn Buddies Program

  • Feral cats and kittens
  • Semi-feral cats and kittens that have not tamed down enough to be house cats.
  • Tame cats who have been deemed to be unsuitable house cats
Picture
The cats in this program are looking for a barn or shop to live in!

Barn Buddies are cat companions that range in temperament from semi-social to very friendly and may not be suited to a home environment due to litter box or temperament issues, but still deserve a caring environment. They may prefer to share your yard/barn from a distance and need a little time to warm up to you (treats work well), or welcome your affection every day! They generally provide excellent rodent control without the nuisance behaviors of intact animals. 


Barn Cat Adopter Requirements:
                         I.          Cats adopted to live in a rural, barn or shop type setting must have access to food, shelter, water, regular vet care, love and attention.
                       II.          Barns or warehouses must be heated or well insulated and these cats must not be expected to fend for themselves.  We recommend that 2 cats be adopted together so they have a companion in the outdoor environment.
                     III.          The adopter will be the registered owner and must take full responsibility for the cat(s).  If the adopter leaves the place where the cat(s) is living, he/she must make arrangements for the cat(s).  Suitable arrangements include taking the cat with him/her or finding another caregiver to accept responsibility for the ongoing care and welfare of the cat(s) and transfer of ownership.
                     IV.          In the case of a business, LLBRHS will ensure the landlord of the premises as well as the manager of the business agrees of the plan to have cat(s) on the premise.
                       V.          Barn cat(s) will be spayed or neutered, vaccinated & de-wormed prior to leaving the LLBRHS.
​


If you are interested in getting a barn or shop cat, please fill out our adoption application.
​
​
We always have a number of feral and semi feral cat options for adoption (not shown below)  as well as tame cats (see below).  Please indicate on the adoption application which kind of Barn Buddy you would like to adopt!
