Our Cat Handbook


The above handbook will cover topics ranging from how to transition your pet to their new home and also covers our most frequently asked questions.

*  Almost Home working cats are feral cats that are not able to be returned to a local community cat colony. These cats are available to homes willing to provide shelter (barn, warehouse, outbuilding) and food. All AHHS working cats are available free of charge and are already spayed or neutered, ear tipped and vaccinated.
