How to Adopt a Cat or Kitten from LAPS
Step 1: View Our Adoptables
Step 2: Fill Out an Adoption Application
Step 3: Application Review
Here at LAPS, we strive to match each animal to the best family. Our adoption counsellors take the time to carefully consider all applications that are submitted before making their final selections. If you are chosen to adopt a cat or kitten, our adoption counsellors will connect with you directly to further process your adoption. They will also be able to set up a time for you to meet the cat or kitten in person.
The adoption counsellors will be able to answer any questions you may have about the cat and advise you on any medical or special care requirements the cat may have. All information about the cat is disclosed so you can make an informed decision about adopting.

Adoption Fees
The adoption fee is often the least expensive part of adding a new member to your family. Many dogs and cats come to LAPS in need of medical attention and training. Adoption fees help us cover the cost of caring for the animals at the shelter.
Prior to adoption, all LAPS dogs and cats are spayed or neutered, tattooed or microchipped, and receive their first set of vaccinations. The adoption fee also includes a free check-up with a veterinarian within three days of adoption, six weeks of free pet insurance and a bag of premium food. Our current fees are:
Kitten
- $300 + PST
Adult
One to nine years old
- $250 + PST
Senior
Ten years old and up
- $150 + PST
