Some of our Spirit Cats are ready to find homes!

They've made great progress - accepting pets, treats, and play from people they trust - but will need time and patience to adjust to a new environment.

Adopting in pairs is preferred - they truly thrive together! We've seen incredible progress by pairing more social cats with fearful ones. There is real social learning happening. They watch and learn from one another, especially during playtime and human interaction. 

Best with caretakers committed to continued socialization and gentle encouragement. These cats will not be the right fit for everyone - and that's okay! We are looking for committed, serious adopters who are ready to help these cats continue their journey.

Applications can be filled out using this link Rhode Island SPCA | Apply for Adoption: Cat and listing "spirit cats" under "Which animals are you interested in?"  Meet and greets will be scheduled by appointment. If you have any questions, please email Cathy.

Cat Behavior Consulting Services are on “paws” until further notice.

Working Cat Program

We currently don’t have any working cats looking for placement, but we recommend reaching out to your local animal controls/shelters to check there.

Have a barn, warehouse, or garden that needs rodent control? We may have a working cat for you! Please contact us at cats@rispca.org if interested.

Check out our “Working Cat Program”!
