Anyone interested in adopting one of our kittens must complete our Kitten Application.
Once the completed Application is received and approved, you will be placed on our "interested" list until we have an available kitten.
- All kittens are sold as pets only and leave our cattery after being spayed or neutered. We do not sell breeding rights for any of our kittens, nor do we allow them to go to their permanent homes unaltered. Our kittens go to their forever homes between 14-16 weeks.
- The adoption fee for our pet-quality kittens starts at $2,000.00. Potential adopters are provided with a copy of the Alafia Sky Adoption Agreement prior to placing a deposit on a kitten to ensure that they are aware and in agreement with all provisions of the agreement. The adopter must sign our contract at the time they receive their kitten. At 4 to 6 weeks of age, we will accept a $500 non-refundable deposit to reserve an available kitten. The deposit will be applied to the total cost of the kitten. If the adopter decides not to take their reserved kitten for any reason, their deposit may be applied to the purchase of a different kitten within 12 months of the date the deposit was received by Alafia Sky. After 12 months, the deposit will be forfeited by the buyer even if the breeder has no available kittens within that 12 month period. Alafia Sky reserves the right to refund an adopter's deposit and cancel the adoption of a reserved kitten should the breeder determine the situation warrants such action.
- Alafia Sky will deliver to the adopter a healthy, spayed/neutered kitten, who has been microchipped and has had all of their first-year kitten vaccinations, including rabies. We will provide a valid FL Health Certificate, TICA and/or CFA registration paper, microchip registration information and 30 Days of pet insurance at no cost to the adopter through Trupanion Pet Insurance for the adopter's new kitten.
- Our kittens are sold as indoor only pets. Devon Rex thrive living indoors and underfoot with their families. Allowing them to roam outdoors exposes them unnecessarily to illness and parasites that can compromise their health, as well as injuries and/or death that could be caused by other animals, machinery or cars.
- We do not ship our kittens via cargo or pet courier service, nor do we allow anyone other than the adopter(s) to pick up a reserved kitten or accept a kitten that we deliver. We will make arrangements to deliver your kitten to you for an additional fee to any state east of the Mississippi and to Texas (normally $350 to $650) if you are unable to travel to Tampa to pick up your kitten.
- We at Alafia Sky are vehemently opposed to declawing cats for any reason and will not sell to anyone who intends to declaw.
- Our goal is to ensure that the homes our kittens go to will be their forever home, therefore our contract prohibits the resale or rehoming of any of our kittens without our express written permission to do so.
- We keep in touch with our Alafia Sky families and hope that you will keep us updated on your kitten's growth and well-being. We love pictures!
