Adopt a Barn Cat with No Adoption Fee in Daviess County, Kentucky

Can you provide a cat with shelter, food, and water? If so, a barn cat could be the perfect addition to your family to help with rodent control on your property. Many cats are up for adoption at the Daviess County Animal Shelter, ready for their second chance. There are no adoption fees to give one of these outdoor cats a new home today!

BARN CATS CAN BECOME LIKE FAMILY

Growing up on 100 acres in Northern Michigan, we had many barn cats. While they were primarily working cats, we always brought them indoors occasionally to keep them semi-social and prevent them from becoming too feral. Even though they had a job to do, we treated them like family. These cats can make wonderful, loyal companions while helping with rodent control, and they can be a great addition to any home!

BARN CATS AVAILABLE AT THE DAVIESS COUNTY ANIMAL SHELTER

The Daviess County Animal Shelter offers many outdoor/barn cats that need new homes. If you have a barn, outbuilding, or garage, they could be the perfect fit for your property. These cats are excellent at controlling rodent populations, and there’s no adoption fee! If you’re looking for a pest solution, these hardworking cats are ready to help.

HOW TO ADOPT SHELTER OUTDOOR CATS

The Daviess County Animal Shelter takes in thousands of animals every year. While some are reunited with their owners and others find new homes, many remain without a place to call their own. This is why it’s so important to help these animals find new families.

If you’re interested in adopting a cat, stop by the shelter! They have a variety of outdoor/barn cats of all ages, sizes, and colors waiting for a new home. Be sure to bring a crate to transport or you can purchase a cardboard carrier for $5 from the shelter. Can you help give these cats a second chance before it's too late?
