Meet Cato

All about Cato

Cato is a 7 months old male Domestic Medium Hair/Mix cat and has been with us for 47 days.

Meet Cato!

Cato is a shy kitten with a heart full of potential. When he first arrived, he preferred to stay hidden and avoided attention, but with time, patience, and the magic of treats, he's made incredible progress. Now, Cato is beginning to enjoy gentle pets and trust the people around him.

He's naturally curious and loves to watch everything going on in his world. Whether it's the rustle of a toy or the quiet bustle of daily life, Cato is always observing and taking it all in.

Cato is looking for a quiet and understanding home where he can continue to grow and feel safe. If you're ready to help this sweet boy blossom at his own pace, Cato would love to meet you!

Note that many cats do not reach full size until they are about a year and a half old. The weight listed here is the cat's current weight.

Community-Owned Pets

Our Adoption Fees

Our adoption fees range from $85 to $300. Our adoption fees help to offset the cost of evaluation, housing, feeding and medical care for the many animals that need our help.

What Your Adoption Includes

Along with your new best friend, your adoption package includes:

All Age-Appropriate Vaccinations – A $250 Value
A Spay/Neuter Surgery Appointment* – A $300 Value
Microchipping – A $75 Value
Deworming – A $100 Value
Free Health Exam from one of our partnering veterinarians – A $50 Value
30 days of free behavior counseling at Roice-Hurst – A $100 value

Total package value = $875!

*Due to a state-wide veterinary access shortage, Roice-Hurst Humane Society is currently operating under a PACFA exemption allowing unaltered pets to be adopted by their new families while waiting for their spay/neuter appointment. For pets adopted unaltered, Roice-Hurst Humane Society pays for one mandatory spay/neuter appointment for the pet. If this appointment is missed without notice, the adopter is responsible for the cost of the new surgery appointment. This policy exists because in most cases, Roice-Hurst still incurs the cost of surgery whether or not the pet makes it to the appointment. If you have questions about this policy, please call 970-434-7337 ext. 102.

Dog Adoption Fees

Puppies (under 6 months old) – $300
Adult Dogs (between 6 months old and 7 years old) – $200
Senior Dogs (8 years and older) – $125

A Mesa County Dog License must also be purchased with a dog adoption if the adopter resides within Mesa County. The fee for a 1-year license is $10 and the fee for a 3-year license is $25. The license you purchase is dependent upon whether the dog has a 1- or 3-year rabies vaccination.

Cat Adoption Fees

Kittens (under 6 months old) – $150*
Adult Cats (ages 6 months to 9 years old) – $100
Senior Cats (age 10 years and older) – $85

*Adopt a pair of kittens together and one of their adoption fees is 50% off! Having a buddy greatly supports a kitten’s positive social and emotional development and reduces inappropriate play behaviors directed at humans.

Interest Form: Adopt a Pet in Foster Care

Only complete this form if the pet you are interested in adopting is located in a foster home. If the pet you are interested in adopting is located on-site at Roice-Hurst, please visit the shelter during our open hours.

Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from a Roice-Hurst Humane Society foster home! This form is solely an interest form and does not guarantee adoption. Your information will be forwarded to the pet's foster family, and they will reach out to you directly. Expect to be contacted within 48 hours. Please understand that the pet you are interested in may have had other inquiries and may be adopted before you are able to meet them. Foster families contact potential adopters in the order that inquiries are received. Please keep in mind that some animals have restrictions that might prevent them from being adopted to a specific home, for example, other pets and/or small children. Please note that some pets shown on our website are not yet altered and are scheduled for a spay/neuter procedure in the near future. For questions, please call the shelter at 970-434-7337.
