Our Very Wonderful BARN/GARDEN CATS are healthy, stray cats who are not suitable for regular adoption due to their feral behavior at the shelter. Barn/garden cats are fixed, vaccinated, microchipped and ear-tipped, and are available at no charge to you.

To acclimate the Barn/Garden Cats to your property, you will need to keep the cat(s) in a fully-enclosed weather-proof structure that will eventually be their home, like a barn/shed/unused garage, for at least two weeks, feeding them at the same time/place every day. The cats must always have this safe, dry shelter with good food and basic care available for the rest of their lives.

==>If you are interested in adopting this cat as a barn/garden cat, please complete the barn/garden cat application located at https://animalcare.saccounty.gov/Documents/BarnGardenCatAdoptionApp.pdf and email to Celeste at ingridc@saccounty.gov. Please include the animal ID number in the email subject line.
