I will provide it with quality cat food, plenty of fresh water, indoor shelter, affection, annual physical examination and vaccinations under the supervision of a Licensed Veterinarian.

I understand that it is my responsibility to see and evaluate the cat for myself before agreeing to adopt it. MCR recommends the adopter have the cat examined by a Licensed Veterinarian within seven days of the adoption date, at Adopters expense, and to immediately return the cat if the Veterinarian finds the animal has a terminal or life-threatening health problem, unless the Adopter agrees to assume all costs of treatment. MCR makes no guarantees about the health, quality, or condition of the adopted cat or kitten. I am in full agreement with these terms of adoption. MCR is in no way liable or responsible for any damage, accident, or injury resulting from the placement of a cat into my household.
