Ziggy and Jareth are looking for a barn/working home together. They will need a heat source this winter and will need strict confinement for a minimum of one month.
Cats in our Barn Cat program fall into one of two categories:
Cats who are social but too feisty in interactions with people here at Dakin.
Cats who are shy or fearful of people, and who prefer the company of other cats and animals.
Please note, we do not adopt cats who are suitable to be household companions to barns, only those cats without other options.
You can change the life of a cat in need
You can help a cat who has nowhere else to go. If you have a working barn or other structure, there are cats who need you! Having a barn cat will help keep down the rodent population. The cats will be helping you, while you provide them a safe place to live. And, because these cats are already spayed or neutered, you won't have to worry about litters of kittens appearing!
If you're ready to adopt now and want to learn more about, meet, or adopt this pet, you can start the process in one of two ways:
Come on in during open adoption hours Tuesday - Saturday 12:30-3:00! For in-shelter pets (not in foster care) coming in ASAP is the fastest way to adopt.
**the below two methods are slower than visiting us**
Call us (413-781-4000 x 1) or email us (springfield@dakinhumane.org) for more information about a pet. We are often on the line with another client, but we return voice mail and emails within 24 hours.
